RICH FRENCH ARISTOCRAT GIRL in FANCY DRESS ~ Old Original ...

Décima 

Fetid breath, rapid from his want,

rained down upon my coiffured hair.

Raucous, his laughter did declare,

You are the prey I am to hunt.

 

Alone, against a bold affront,

one may prevail, with sharpened mind.

Another joined us as we dined,

“Father, did you know his intent,

an evil evident by scent?”

Sightless is not the same as blind.

 

Haiku

Perception views life

without color, scent, or sound,

through portals of thought.
