Luck be a Lady

She

Dared to

Make snake eyes at you

tempting your soul

to awaken

Like Eve

rolling the dice.

Betraying your concept

of nice...

flirting with another

foregoing innocence.

She

Became the bearer

of knowledge.

Duality.

carnal bodies singing

sweet melodies

reverberating

Luck be a Lady...

She

Betrayed by you

punished for
forgetting her place,

leaving her escort's side

that bone within. 

Daring to pre-exist.

Forever perceived as weakness

rather than divine

this singularly punished vessel

repeatedly feeling the weight

of so many

fruits. Lush pickings

valued no longer
than the time it takes you
to forget your manners,
your mothers...

that Eden

you were birthed from.

Amnesia blossoming

into broken dreams

hustling us backwards

into Paradise,

denying the real bliss

of Liberty.
