to catch a rat

Cast off, cast away from fate perhaps another day,
days go by and still remains all my shatters dreams and pains,

Try as u may fate,
she cannot be swayed by forces man or heaven made,
she is trapped in trapping herself in a trap she sprung on herself when catching a rat,
arms wide closed tung  
Eyes closed.  Lies exposed.
Wings spread. Forever dead.
watching, make sure she falls for her own device,
then won’t she let  herself be freed twice

eyes closed chin tucked
pride swallowed, mind fucked
throat dry teeth numb, fingers deaf, and speech dumb.
Ears blind, coils wind,
rouge breath, brings Jove’s death,

I cast it off for I believe it not
this word that’s meaning’s forever sought.
for it’s told  it shall cure all that ails
still we desire truth in tall tales
buried passion dissolves the flesh
married fashion resolves the mesh
