I Search For Equilibrium

O I have given more to thee Than thee hath given back to me But rattle on thy prattle proud For I be soft where thee be loud And those with holes that burrow deep Can hear thy ***** pitched voice so steep; An irritant to mine own ear But new to you who choose to hear. And I begrudge thee not your choice To listen to her ***** pitched voice But gather not her blather bold Her words are crystalized and cold. She catapults her weighted steam Across the sparkle and the gleam Of yonder pond filled full with trout That dive and dart with every shout. I search for equlibrium In this and that consortium Once shared with my adoring spouse Till rumbled mumbles filled our house And madness forced my own retreat Away from all that was so sweet When youthful truth was easy found By two whose love was lifetime bound.
