[bodytext] => Come one, come all Into the daydream Enter with no risk Bountiful are these moments A safe-haven Hidden from common sense Subsidize the love Allocate Evenly distribute Fairly gotten Earned with merit Produced by effort Paid for on credit Why is it when you turn your head do I think of only you This was once a lonely park bench, Now she obscures my view Now I am shaking, and shivering in my shoes, As the icy air turns frigid from just one glance More bad news Erratic, in that the surprise engagement Was abrupt, and sporadic Her charm was explosive, waiting to erupt Charismatic- None of it overly dramatic It wasn’t love Love as we all know is tragic… This was more intense I was impressed Such eagerness With candor and openness Honesty about dreams and perversions How has this love story become such a pivotal diversion? Refresh my memory What was it you said You were possessed? Under duress? Under your dress A snake crawled to caress The bare pink walls Of your loneliness Allow me to recollect Feel free to interject Anything you feel relevant Or is deserving of my respect Or are you serving, this raw meal of neglect? To someone who feels Only what others reject Who only thinks About the death He protects (Choose your lines wisely When the curtains come up And the spotlight has your face Think of what will make me smile And with eloquence deliver me my fate) Though the tears have ceased My cry intensifies I seek, an uncertain peace A bargain once left uncircumcised Cut and removed The foreskin aches painfully before it dies Predict the future To no avail Obsess on the consequence In and out of sleep Mounds to heaps, to plies of dreamy debris __________ _____ [comments] => 1 [counter] => 342 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Jyssvw22 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
