David Flavoured

Enticed by his faceted aspects
                Political points show his honour
                    Policies opposed, David contests 
            Left wing woke folk admonished

              Rawness of broad topics examined
                      Cowboy stories of recent history 
                             Scenarios derived from within
              Issues which play contemporary 

             David flavoured, his firm essence
                      Infuses my little with his lot
                          I honestly struggle to explain this
             ... never missed what I don't got

             .. A man who won't take crap
                       Shallow hits roll off his jaw
                             My bull wouldn't just lapse - 
              He'd bleed it dry, peace restored

              Faceless man tells me myriads
                      Written by unwavered conviction 
                           Marathon stamina poem olympian
              I, willing victim to his inflictions

              Dreaming of David, strange concept 
                       - exclusive, by myself for eight years
                           It's a choice to remain alone, heart kept 
              Relic packed away, oddly he endears

              Hard nosed refusal to enter this century 
                       Old school stance pings my deepest vibe
                       Unreasonable, how much it means to me
              To absorb the jib of David 's scribe

               Around three years his senior
                        In virus time, located overseas
                        I fixate on his strong demeanour 
               In lurid choc chip fantasies

Hi Sigrid choc chip Fantasies are sometimes better than reality, what would life be without them, you have a certain analytical style to your poetry, reminds me of a futuristic computer mind running an algorithmic diagnostic, amazing how you do this and then create a poem from the variables, gobsmacked I am cheers David.
