Book: Castle View 2002 Poems
These poems tell a tale
Written in Chronological order
Like the outline of the book
I wish to write.
They tell the tale of an affair.
Each blade of feelings
He examined in bed
Every sheath of emotion
He threshed in conversation,
Lying, pillows supporting,
Sometime kissing,
Sometime retreating,
Until a night
In the shed
Out of the rain
Looking out
An Arguement on politics.
My liberal leaning
would undo the world.
I hear Alyson Krause
I feel Alyson Krause
After a time
We tried again
His voice saying yes
from a Colorado mountaintop.
I wasnt alone when he asked
But I made sure I was when I answered
Or did I ask? And he agreed
His infectious energy
Over the wire.
Only to end again
Politics and trust
Why he couldnt trust me
Why I couldnt convert
Why we argued
When we should have been
Making Love.
“Each blade of feeling, he
“Each blade of feeling, he examined in bed” - I like what is said; I like even more what is left unsaid.
Alyson Krause – no doubt, the maestro of lost love
Arguing when you should have been making love – no doubt, a lament to be remembered.
Book Project?
To be published? Hope so. Sounds pretty good. - Stella
