What Just Happened Here, redeux

Ninja of Lust

(and when I use the word "ninja"
I really mean "Oh my god, who the hell do you think you are?")

Rain falls softly from the petals
of the dogwood

the flutter of petals
belies the presence of birds

Your treacherous dance
would have gone
unnoticed

if your new girlfriend
had not shown up
unexpectedly.

My laughter is the steel blade
full tang
piercing through your black pajamas

your mask is no disguise -
I know you now
and there is no hiding
what you are

We are enemies, you and I
and you are a hilarious story
that little girls will laugh at
long after my memory has faded
