Behind the Red Curtain 1
[by S. David] [art by Gregory Sanville]

Christ he was afraid
To really speak to her
Couldn’t open his heart
He knew her mother
Didn’t like him trust him
Worth a damn so before
They sat together on
The couch he went over
Pulled the red curtain open
Stepped back in amazed
Disgust sitting in the
Alcove behind the red
Curtain was her mother
He turned back to her
“Did you know” “No”
He took her arm said
“Let’s go let’s leave
Are you ready” and so
She left the house of
Her mother never turning
Back to see now there’s
Definitely a moral here
Somewhere if you
Find it out me know
