Hoodwinked for a Sparkle MAG
May 13, 2019
curated,
you spun lies of gold,
shimmering in warm beams of sun.
it was long before I realized the glare was not a reflection of me,
but of your own morose core.
in terms of heat,
you were merely a conductor,
not the flame, which you had claimed to be.
in a rush, you flooded my life,
with which I will fervently proceed.
only a fatuous woman would trade her years,
for fool’s gold.
