Passion, power,

Ambition, and

Lust…

He inhaled the

Agreeable

Redolence

Of her,

Cinnabar,

As each distinctive

Scent wreathed him,

Filled his nostrils with

Memories

Of her.

The fabric of

Desire, she wrapped

His senses with the

Heat from each
Crimson thread.

The polar opposite

Of her, her chaotic

And hyper-envious

Sister, Vermillion,

Was indecisively

And calculatingly

Cold and sickeningly,

Gluttoningly sweet.

Cinnabar

Was the driving

Force behind his

Intoxication.

She was the fire of

Life he chased

Relentlessly.

A spicy fragrance,

He inhaled,

Adored, cherished her

For her brutal honesty,

Her boldness,

Her searing heat of

Determination.

A temptress,

She awaited his

Arrival each day.

It happened suddenly.

The icy jealousy

Of Azure struck,

Killing her.

He held her,

Stroked the haloed

Strands of her dark,

Long hair, embraced

Her limp body,

Cried.
