she a "B" with an "itch"
he a man with the terrible need of a wife,
"her"

round rear cheeks only inches from them touching,
flushed front cheeks with eyes not seeing
the gap which runs between them.
their eyes fixed on matching blue walls
their mouths closed on secret wants and desires

neither,he nor she, knowing the true essence of the other
one wanting permanence, one wanting freedom,
solitude sad for one, solitude beauty for another

do they see the gap that runs through their lives?
no,
sad but true,
ignorance is theirs

Hey, You there
go tell them please
they suffer from gap blindness.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
