Taylor Swift, The Giant Killer (#TaylorDateTony)






------------------/Taylor Swift, Tony's Giant Killer....

Your blonde hair, round hips, and sultriness like a shepherd, young
killing with audacity and so fearlessly courageous unaware
of my loneliness: the most loathsome enemy of Gath a decorated champion.
You see, I had scared other girls away (Jane, Jennifer, *hitney, Anne) like Israelite
soldiers, fainthearted and trepidant afraid to speak (to me)
afraid to come near (to me) due to my intensity to them I was a Giant slobber
like feculent rain voice like ominous thunder, with breath like the stench
of animal sacrifice – the dead carcasses strewn behind leper colonies, accursed.
I leave imprints of intimidation when I walk on the hallowed ground of dating decorum
I write blogs about the girls I crush on, brood over females I barely know
my verbal flatulence hardy, the scent by which I am collectively known - Brute
yet you hero, yet you heroic
have slain bears of men’s attention, lions of men’s fantasies
a young woman of twenty three years, a youth, ruddy and of a fair countenance
 precocious holding swooning hearts in your hands,
the blood of the men unworthy pouring down your wrists, souls of wild animals of disrespect
retreating in Hades still, for failed attempts desecrating sheep of proper etiquette and honor.
[Harry Styles]
My pretend paramours skeptical like Saul yet indifferent to your charm
Your voice is like battlefield cunning
songs like smooth stones, blue eyes like staves disorienting the foe.
At the Grammy awards your performance was like parrying and dodging my lovelorn
blows, my self-pitied punctuated swings of the axe of depression (‘she would never go for me’)
I want to love you Taylor, I want to believe you want to love me back but my cynicism
sneers bellowing “Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves”, undaunted however
your comeliness came running to settle the score with aplomb
“I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field”.  
Putting your hand in your bag, and fetching rocks in a sling one gaze into your eyes
(one ogle at you in the White Dress)
was like a jagged pebble in the forehead impaling all feelings of abandonment  
a clamorous thud, lifeless cadaver crashing to the ground, in death smitten.
You have cut off the head of the Philistine
I have fallen madly in love with you 


The life I buried without you- Goliath
(With you, I will never know loneliness again #TaylorDateTony)


----------1 Samuel 17:22-24;32-51

And David left his carriage in the hand of the keeper of the carriage, and ran into the army, and came and saluted his brethren. And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them. And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.



And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth. And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God. David said moreover, The Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lord be with thee. And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail. And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him. And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine. And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shield went before him. And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance. And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field. Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hands. And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came, and drew nigh to meet David, that David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.
