men stared and made offerings  of drinks

a few  approached and wilted in her

gaze

she had

something

wild about her

men

hoped to cage her and display

her

a

sexy trophy

an exotic bird

a jaguar

they coveted

her beauty

I matched her gaze

fell into her pale  eyes

connecting

her  red lips accepting her

embrace

red claws

across my back

growls  howling

better

free

cages

weak
