For Your Entertainment

Marry you.

but, only while the sun's asleep

and the liquor permeates your brain.

Exclamation, to the world

-but only within this room,

on this night,

at this drunken moment.

In the bitter blind of daylight

you're a man with a livelihood to maintain.

In the moonlight,

you're an entertainer.

Shroud me in shame and secrecy,

(you forget you came to me first)

because who wants to see the other side?

Encased in over-promising hope

and overexaggerated desire,

Lays me.

An accidental extra puzzle piece;

No place to fit.
