John Bullick Poem
The dog lies between us,
bridging the gulf
that's grown between us
over the years.
She whimpers, you groan
in your sleep.
I sigh awake,
longing to recapture
the dreams of our youth.
When we longed for children,
longed for someone to love
besides ourselves.
Longed with an abandon,
because we couldn't imagine
life outside ourselves.
Longed and loved
and hoped for something
beyond this bliss.
To keep us together.

John Bullick Poem
Whispering
thoughts to one's idlest fancy,
Imagining feelings
to one's innermost soul.
Babbling inanities,
crying insanities,
Wondering, wandering
alone and alone.
Where does it take one,
where does it want one,
where does it seduce one
along the strange source
of forbidden mysteries,
of unexplored paths,
of untouched feelings,
of ecstasies unknown,
or unthought of.
Where will it end?
