It All Fits

candles lit
wax drips
I am firmly
in your grips

underneath
Egyptian sheets
passion grows
as our love heats

in my heart
you're the part
I knew it well
from the start

it all fits
well matched wits
loving all
I taste of this

MISMATCH - TRI

When I was walking in the zoo,
I saw a strange and wondrous sight.
You would have found in funny too,
Unlikely creatures in a fight.

I saw a strange and wondrous sight,
A hippo fighting with a cat. 
Hyenas really laughed at that.

You would have found it funny too.
The pair were really not well matched.
Of course the cat was soon dispatched.

Unlikely creatures in a fight.
But cats have nine lives as you know
And so he still has eight to go

Duffel Coats

He had a duffel coat once,
so did she. They must have looked
well-matched
walking in Regents Park
that Autumn.

In time
the coat shop on Oxford Street
died of old age.
Duffel went out of style.

They wore them still.
One day
her duffel was neatly folded,
into a labeled, cardboard box.

His coat developed Alzheimer’s
in a tumble-down closet.

When they unhooked from each other,
he packed only empty pockets,
and a small bundled
of toggles and loops.
