Skywards of  now
Vultures on gilded wings
hovering, striking
secrets of the carrion evade
Are you just tete to tete
now the lines are drawn
Large sephents over reach
to a Gypsy flute...

such 
is
the warmth
of your breath,
thawing winter's chill...
what an intimate tete-a-tete;
'tis a celestial feeling! is this when our lips touch?
the nearness of you at the close of day, within kissing distance; all I could ask for!...

Overheard by flies on the White House wall

   During Bubba's tete-a-tete with his moll.

      "Order extra salami

         And a tad more pastrami

            Fer my pizza on yer next service call!"

Overheard by a fly upon the wall,

   During Clinton's tete-a-tete with his moll,

      "Order extra salami

         And a tad more pastrami,

            For my pizza on your next service call!"

"One" kiss
so fervent
surely the

universe
shook-
Aroused

as
sexual pleasures
of man, woman,

scents - touch,
elevate to ecstacy -
Comparable 

to none!
Like stars
fall from sky

ignites into
atoms-a-flame!
One-time

passion
avowed
Ne'er

to unveil -
tete-a-tete
contained

within ones
heart -
Nevermore

to be
savored
Like

taste
of caviar - 
lingers forevermore -

that "One" kiss!...

At fast food restaurant where I eat
There's man that gives feeling deja' vu
Our glances have always been discrete
At fast food restaurant where I eat
A tete-a'-tete would fuel the heat 
This tete-a'-tete is long overdue
At fast food restaurant where I eat
There's man that gives feeling deja'vu

two angry men,
tete-a-tete
rat-a-tatting
a volley
of insults.
why?
nobody knows.
cup of tension
ratched up
to the brim;
eyes of fire
bulging,
seething
with rage.
fists clenched,
about to be...
thrown.
where's a referee?
somebody come...
quick!

A jolt of caffeine and suddenly I'm all bright and chirpy
and on a cold day well its better then drinking a Slurpy 

A sip of foamy latte and I grow a funny mustache 
nicely served aside a delicate truffle ganache 

A tete a tete with my favorite bestie at the local Cafe 
just before we drink it, we bow our heads and pray 

A coffee perks me up, right before my shift begins 
it is the choice of Queens, and the beverage of kings. 

Coffee !!!

Armed at all time, cap-a-pie.
leaving no room for tete-a-tete
Dwelt amongest enemy and snake
when enemy; our land they inevade

other, 'r death serves as joy
like the death on cross calvary
oh! ay, 'r life oft citizen's life
we hast forgotten our home

Gun bullet o'er our head? 
't is either kill or be killed
widow turn our women
Nay, our children, orphan

for 'r punctured soul, they paid
Twenty shekels, thou remembered
cry, joy; on our return home
cry for puntured soul, joy for enemy...
