love sick you sound
a lovely feast
in so many ways
that feeds my
aching heart
though you leave me
without a net
or any recourse
of my own
but to wait blindly for hours
on line
I did that gig for many
weeks prior
to little or no avail
I've grown weary
and left word in your court
repeatedly
I am here
but waiting in the wings
not hanging out on line
and now you claim you waited
for me all night long
a man in the desert
can not expect someone to assist him
if he does not at least
call out to the passing caravans
you have the technology
but choose not to paddle your boat in
such waterways of communication
an eight to twelve hour windowed
email would have served your
cause in a warm and timely fashion
when I throw you ropes via
texts, poems, emails, off lines
and you choose not to take a hold of them
why respond then forlorn of my
general absence
can you tell me that?
signed,
sincerely perplexed......................
