PROFIT FOR A BACKBONE

He discovered love ... and she
a way out ...

He counted the stems of red ... and she
a way for more ...

He with a springtime of diamonds ... and she
with a trunk filled space for his heart ...

He discovered a trap ... and she
numbered his drinks ...

He discovered a vacancy in every swallow ... and she
found a way to feed him more ...

He borrowed time for all his recollections ... and she
pleaded illusions ...

He challenged her will ... and she
invaded with her lawyers ...

He was awarded custody to the bottle ... and she
to his name ...

End
