A Foolish Arrangement

Christabel strips. And slips like a dream. Breaking ice with arms that gleam with pain. Disdain.... She throws her head. And glides against the stream. Throwing me her bravest smile. Defiant. Glittering. Shivering guile. "Catching a cold is quick this time. But fish?... Fish may take a while...". Christabel dips and slips from me. And hand pushed deep inside is suddenly free. Triumphant. Reluctantly. Struggling six legs held up for me to see. "Don't be scared. It's nothing new. It's the same old game; only fun with two...". But fast and over and over. "I can't play this game with you". Everything she tries to tell me. Leaves me open mouthed and still. Foolishly arrange tomorrow. The way I always will. Christabel trips. And grips my hand. But never to be saved. For a second I understand. And I fall with her.... "I'll never leave you. Love you. See you change into the man I want. But it's not for long this thing. It's not for long..."
