courtly love by Emily Davidsoni was in a gown
but my feet were bare
the royalty and poise of the night
drowned in relief and wine
my dress dragged the floor
your hair was messy
i came close enough
to touch at arm's length
i made a blindfold
with a strip of chiffon
wrapped it gently around your head
but my loyalty to elegance won
and i set you free before making you
