PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

boredom

the frustrated noose

a loner's entanglement

best left

to the more usual participants

of the far too rushed social game

signs of even the most subtle interest

leaves me

wholly confused

bitter almost

which eyes do I believe

what attractant do I seduce

which excuse do I choose to defame

I'm too old to play the regular bar goers

game

though opportunities are more and more few

still prospects look and act just the same

why is that

how is such farce

of diluted devilry

a hindrance to the human need for pairing

off

or a help mate to the cause

why, without such measures the notion of

procreation could not succeed

if each individual unequivocally lost  

success is such a flogged ratio

guarded by simple self made chemicals that

provoke one's mind to get involved

inspiring its body to play

colognes only further such ideas of the

general process along

and socially

the dogs that they are

wouldn't have it any other way

man should have it so simple as the dog

in short

that is why dogs seem so happy

inside they are secretly laughing at us

fools that we are

so delighted are they

not to be in our much too simple bodies

by far over dramatized shoes

we're such a bad joke over all

as a race..............
