Misolintermate Lovers Ballet'

Does Inspiration write us.
Then in script might
do we act
upon the stages of
existance
to award those
who best
entertain
as us are we first
in efford
are we last
encoupled
yet we fear
that what is
existing
may strain and crumble
together than only to
seprate.
The moon shall
chase the sun
only to meet
in it's distance
that this event
makes
the night's
entertining
the skies of night
only to be bothered
by the renewing
of day.

Fear not might
moring renew your strenght
then to love again
speak then as one
speak then as lovers
might morning bring
such togetherness
quatrain or abab
might we
speak our love together
nomencladchore to
one man clad chore
then might we marry
stand before a world as one
in the peaceful togetherness
of coupling

To Be Continued---

At times I feel like the worst...
Like a clarity blunt under frost...
No I m not betrayed and flattered...
Still I do feel so shattered...
Before the beginning it often ends...
A pinch of ecstasy a bit of misery it blends...
Random get the thoughts and actions are in awful hurry...
Don't know it's my timid anger or strength of fury...
And then people ask me,"Are you all right?"...
I don't know what to say so I walked quite...
Cause words are often misunderstood...
And my silence is not taken as something good...
As I walked but the road had a divergence...
"You can efford only one!" from my pocket, jiggled the pence...
So the journey is still on...
At horizon cheers the sun at dusk & dawn...
Penning things down on my run...
So my children get stories when I m done...
And stories are passed down the dynasty...
Some have happy endings while others seem nasty...
Cause perhaps some novels are complete..
While others just run out of ink and sheet...
And those who say leaving a story at half is kind of rude...
I just say "patience my dear" , 
It's to be continued....
