Ersatz Heart

Locked in embrace of ersatz heart
Ochre and azure blue
To dance through air and join as one
But is their love so true?

For here love’s symbol will betray
A ritual rather harsh
As Azure punctures, grabs and punch
At Ochre by the marsh

And yet this sapphire dart displays
airborne supremacy
Skating cross cerulean sky
‘Gainst summer’s verdancy.
