Resolve (a Poem)

Slipping slowly like
red wine leaking through
fingers that wish to hold it.
Each tiny sip masquerades
as tumbling blood hitting
the floor in dual splatters:
Weakness and temptation

    Interesting. I like the ending lines especially.

      Thank you!

      There is no period at the end because "weakness and temptation" continue onward. I might put it in because people will think it's a typographical issue and not intentional.
