I didn’t want
A lover so
My disappointment is
Minor oh yes
We played house
And created a
World but then
I realized that
You’re distracted with
Your own life
And me just
A treat like
Ice cream upon
Which to lick
Month: August 2021
ThereAlso
It’s the silence
That bothers me
Like mice picking
Away at slumber
The thoughts come
So what if
And who cares
Dreams not peaceful
Filled with questions
Like a child
Unprepared for school
I sit wondering
Where’d you go
That I wouldn’t
Be there also
Battle
And so we
Met on a
Grassy hilltop restaurant
Clothed in armor
Ready for battle
Two men uncertain
Of strategy certain
Of device over
Octopus and steak
The armor grew
Heavy and undress
We did until
Naked wrestling with
Each other for
Dominance finally signing
Our treaties with
A thousand kisses
AnyWord (to Brandon)
Any word will
Do when you
Speak it it’s
Not the word
But how you
Form it words
Come and words
Go but oh
That smile when
Saying it has
Burned into memory
Like a brand
DesiresFire (for Muenster)
And back then
Before you I
Discovered love not
Gained but desired
So long ago
That moss has
Grown over those
Roots creating a
Forest of passion
Foolish we were
Then playing with
Desires fire that
Often we got
Burned but learn
We certainly did
