Poetic Inspiration
Sometimes things go wrong in relationships, the day is ok,
I try to write a little while she is forever cleaning what is clean
and when she goes on my nerves with endless chatter about
last night’s soap opera, I go for a drive.
Evenings are the worst time when Brazilin soap opera starts
actors pretending to be shouting at each other an endless
drama of love and jealousy.
I need some stimulation, someone to agree or disagree
someone who knows what EU is. I spend my evening drinking beer,
not that I like beer, but it has got alcohol and screaming voices
become distant like a neighbours party.
I try to write- not very successfully- yet it is my metier, but I need
vigorous reports of my views if not I will sink into an abject self
righteousness and that is the last thing want. I like to go to Genève
and speak to Harry, but I cannot she will come hog the conversation
making it into a love in the afternoon and with many pictures taken.
of her in front of a classical house or a statue of historical value.
Something I wanted to record, but she is right I’m a little cog
in the machinery of poetry hundred years all we poets wrote now
will be forgotten. But not so, our voices will be transferred from
a tongue to tongue word of truth always survives and need
not your names a stamp of approval.
