Thunder weeps
Fickle shifting clouds
He still waits

Yes I was pissed
when you hissed
because dinner was late
and you had a date
with someone in your rotation.
Really it's an assignation.
I am well aware,
so just go comb your hair,
and don't come home 
with lipstick on your collar
smelling like cheap dollar-
store perfume.

In an age of constant movement,
nothing is more urgent than sitting still.

SEATING ASSIGNATION

The pick ax and the magazine it’s true,
The toilet bowl so white it’s often blue.
               Too soft paper litters.
     Chafe is not for quitters.
The bottomless vortex, a witch’s brew.

Blossoming romance
Amorously so
Consumes daily thoughts
Visions manifest
Your luscious lips tempt
Perhaps kiss or two
Eagerly texting
Device ways and means
For assignation 
Exploring our minds
In carnal desires
To arouse senses
Crossing boundaries
Once hereto unknown
So let us step back
To our comfort zone 
Have light hearted fun
Building a friendship 
A brick at a time

I am glad to find you pretty maiden
But should your father share otherwise
I have a place of meeting, hidden
Lest our young love dies

I have found a place of meeting
Come my love, but sneak
I shall surely be in waiting
Your dad not to know, the door’s not to shriek

We shall meet in haste
Thus, thus and not otherwise
Time, we are not to waste
Till our freedom grows in size

I shall stay for you there, I shall not fail
Promise to meet me, in that hollow vale....
