I lay all alone in in the warmth and femininity
of this expansive water bed
as basic and baser thoughts languishingly form in
my hand held head
words are just shadows of feelings
one comes to this conclusion in many a moderated
emotional dealings
consequences are acts displayed to relieve anger and
guilt
some like to play their natural and semi-natural
feelings to the very hilt
many are far better off left to the greats for
further dissection
in this age I do not pay much heed to such irritating
reflection
step forward shed your inner anxiety and pay your
past due and token
it is not wholey of hatred and greed that I have
so sonorously spoken
but of lassitude, love and the spirit yet to be
broken
perhaps my head now need be soakin'..........
