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.
