pallete-able

he paints her
 titanium white
smearing into carmine 
with a sable blow..
a ripple effect follows
as now the taint
in feverish form
 and devilish feature,
 half embraces,
and wholey dictates
he doesn't show..
nor can she see
the sly traces of his
trait.. 
forlorn..she doesn't know..
the bigger picture
is taking shape
