La jeune fille catholique
La jeune fille catholique occupe mes pensées. There is a special kind of air: savouring in its flavour whilst walking on the stairway… I pause to rest upon its arm as it stretches out to greet me; inviting me to take in the beauty of the still water that it cradles within its grip.
I light a cigarette and smile as butterflies chatter and dance within a free spirit's gentle beat. Pondering I wonder why the waters should wish to flow in an opposite direction from that of heaven… perhaps heaven was only a figment, and the vibrancy for life itself was the water's singular attraction.
I try to unravel her mystery; watching; waiting; contemplating, but she appears to slowly suffocate in silent desperation feeling for openings that might aid a flight from all that stifles her movement; all that dares to restrain her beauty; all that would inhibit kisses cascading within the water's fall as it descends into the locks' final hold.
