Men in red

He fills up the space

like a black hole -

with his so self-confident energy,

and that manly smell that takes over your brain.

He walks smoothly and soundlessly

around in his shining shoes like a restless figure,

noticeable to everyone -

as if awakened in the middle

of their daydreams.

What can a man do?

We all know how to play,

the game of the games.

And still, one by one -
we might fall for him,

without any rules of love.

And he might stick a knife

into your heart any minute.

So watch out!

Watch out for men in red,

who come and go quietly,

and smile like a snake before
they catch you.
Before they want to love you
and squeeze you to death.
