FOR THY.......................

Folder: 
JOURNAL #34

I despairest not such moment

dear sir

though supple is

this pen in dripping joy

ye hast betwixt a goddess

ye say

well then aye

I say not quite, nay

fair thee well not

never in deed nor endeavor

'tis a mere plight wearing

the cloak of pleasure

this unexpurgated exchange

diddest thou not explain

that thee wishes to be thy bearer

of this montage of

friendship's word/ love /play

or diddest mine eyes  misread thy

in the context of

such poetry's gentle fray

and 'twould that not

be a reference point on which

to bind my own reply to ye

on this very day

hmmm though as delicious as all this

literary tasting is

um shall we say

t'was but a morsal

offered for the pallet

of a connoisseur to the page

and so I give you this poem de jour

for the commitment of your mind

so to further engage............
