PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

sometimes it's like
looking through the toppled hourglass
we share a vendetta of words
almost
like a 'Scaffolding Of Rhyme'
your thoughts though potent
still you paint them
for me somewhat pearl shy
and canvas weary
I have trouble dusting back your veil
the glitter keeps getting on my fingers
and fractured vague ideas of you
are difficult to see through
your pleasure appears as porous to me
yet you can seem so deep
even while standing in the shallowest puddle
is such vision a gift or a trick on the eye
you seem to be the most easily difficult
fellow I've ever had the pleasure to
have sort of met
you are a puzzle of humanity
that could give the crossword
section of the New York times fits
madame Curie Couldn't solve you
enigmatic is but a parking spot
for your daring double talk
you foster compliments
cause flattery wouldn't have you
unless you were gold engraved
so the more and more I talk to you
the less and less I know your story
but for the part where you confessed
you adore a poetess like me
we both know that was a vagabond
of a statement
but you said it with such vivacity
that I couldn't break the will of
your obvious concentration
you seem to see me in a light
that I don't even know the name of
that baffles me at so many levels
but it's also rather beautiful to know
so thank you for not unleashing
the demons in you that we both
are aware that I, myself could not handle............
