"cruel velvet drapes"

--for Zack

"cruel velvet drapes"

i remember that line
you said
you stole
but it's beautiful and i'll steal it too

hold yourself to royal purple
lush and entrapping
don't ever escape from the violetpalace of words
with weeping or gnashing of teeth
memories of academic conquest
improving the world one art (please) at a time
