The First Time of a Man

I remember how
if it were yesterday,
my debut were in FIRST
NIGHT OF A MAN...
(THE GRADUATE)
In the time of GREASE
i was then
A STRANGER
AT NIGHT...
I fell in love with
A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN !
I do not remember her
remarkable name...
LOLITA,
CLEOPATRA,
BARBARELLA,
OR
SIMPLY MARIA ...
I only perceive that it was
LOVE AT FIRST BITE!
I loved it so much that i simply imagined,
A LOVE FOR EVERY LIFE,
but it was not ... it was
FANTASY ... THE GREATEST
EARTH SPECTACLE ...!
Then, shortly thereafter,
GOODBYE TO ILLUSIONS ...
Today in these perplex
MODERN TIMES
I can still remember
with  affection my
start ... it was hot
and I did not notice that
My first love
it was precisely
THE GOODBYE GIRL ...!



 PS. This is a type of poetry based on

Jeff Connelly June 6, 2019 at 8:56 AM Cool Alkas. I never heard of spine poetry, but now I know. I do have to say of all the women's names I liked Maria. If I'm thinking, but might be wrong, that was a song from West Side Story. But thinking is a bad thing for me to do. Always thanks Alkas. You're great!!!
