Poem Title:
Poem
thought to be deadened after the attack from another where one let one in & it didn’t turn out as beautiful as was thought to be had, because the storybooks lie & the movies lie better, but horny is as horny does & along comes another drama to add to the suitcase, which we each drag throughout our lives until we finally get to drop it. though the heart is black & the mind is exhausted & the hands are told to castrate oneself to keep anything from ever happening again, the path leads on & you walk it because what the **** else are you gonna do? no direction comes & no one knows more than you, no text written before you tells any truth, which hasn’t been worked out to oblivion now & the sounds that you love to listen to will do & the feelings that you love to indulge in will do & because the choice to dive in again is but yours to foster. throwing logs on the fire even though the friends say to stop, throwing logs on the fire, even though the passion seems too much, throwing logs on the fire even though their eyes may be drifting, throwing logs on the fire, when the jealousy doesn’t stop the wanting, throwing logs on the fire, when the fighting leads to better sex, throwing logs on the fire, when the sex leads to better fighting, throwing logs on the fire, when the lack of fascination in the other leads each to another, throwing logs on the fire, when the straying leads to passion in both contexts, throwing logs on the fire, when the demands (physically/mentally/emotionally) begin to outweigh the process, throwing logs on the fire, when the parties involved want you all to themselves, throwing logs on the fire, when you haven’t enough energy to spread it thin anymore, throwing logs on the fire, and choosing one over the other, throwing logs on the fire, like picking the wrong teller at the bank & watching the lines on both sides of you move faster & more precisely, throwing logs on the fire, back to the beginning, with no logs left to throw, back to the beginning with embers still flickering.
