when i fell in love i had no word for runaway faster but hang in there.
i had all my problems in mint condition
like a  monkey’s paw in candle wax
but slept with Hope and *** and Perdition.
As your Lips were spoken for… or five and then some.
a whirling dervish of incomplete
Love.

I kept to the Plan.
Loved only you with -
my unspoken tongue.
kept to our barn
where our herd
Heard only the Punch
of our Judy.

Blue
where a Vice
is Anointed
and You. where
a Me
is disappointed

Like a Pro.
