Premiere At The Arclight (The Reunion Of Chloe & Benjamin)

From the collection "Al Front: Saldado Instrúyete vol.2”

Perhaps an additional wink

may preserve that which he’s observed …

… a gesture implying

“there’s time to reconcile”,

reflecting her fear of women

other men have yet to adorn

 

Though proud to provide a reason to confess

“prayer,

to validate his behaviour,

must fail to consider fate” …

… as witness (from the balcony)

to the reception deemed “inappropriate” by the press

(reminiscent of that which she used to allow),

she seems not only misleading,

but is a bit responsible for his presence

and how his apology will always be remembered
