My Gift For You

For now beloved

thou art my wife

no man shall covet

or cast an eye

upon your beauty

but I

for thee art mine

thy lawful treasure

mine alone

for my own pleasure

A gift for thee

O' love of mine

A cast-iron petticoat

you adorn for me

cascading metal

caressing thy breast

stifling each breath

you surrender

like a crushing blow

slowly draining away

the gift of life
