Le dénouement des artistes


You blew me
your blue notes
all dulcet & somber
& (un?)contrived —

A not unbeautiful melody
(it was tangential).

You wrote me
your rote notes
all placid & profound
& (un?)orchestrated —

A not un-articulate verse
(it was inconsequential).

You painted me
your pained strokes
all bold & brilliant
& (un?)resolved —

A not un-awe-inspiring vision
(it was inessential).

Because
(although)
we could conspire
(and thrive)
In truth (and you know):
I would eat you alive.
