Moat

Entering my body

Gets you into the moat

surrounding my heart

Which is the castle
But stay the serenade of townsmen
and their foundried bellows;
those metaled assignations of the heart and mind
compounded to stone
a vicar for the ruby kindness
and the stakes which protect this dull pink ache
oh yes
you are inside of this prodigious dominion
but do mind the dragons
