He Didn't Laugh

He writes to run away
He writes to get his way
to please himself
to possess himself
He'll never give himself away
He always takes what he wants

When he's pleased by what he sees
He watches it closely
if his hunger stirs
He gorges himself
He gives himself permission
to cross the forbidden line

When his dance partner fell
He didn't laugh
