CONFLICT RESOLVED

Folder: 
JOURNAL #35

the heart crosses

and re crosses itself

while constantly running

from the mind

battered energy

stirs the pot

misery calls up the troops

from far back at the behind

the trenches dug

for longing's bitter fight

collapse

under careful scrutiny

your push to be first

and most furiously

memorable

only slaughtered your soldiers

where they stood in the field

as

my heart is not some battle

that you can plan for

wage

nor so easily win

as you are using your

overwhelming fire power

on the smallest

most harmless of all

animals

a woman

who just so happens

to be in love

with someone else

there is no war with you

today

just my love

for him

so

'Conflict Resolved'...................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I love writing about love triangles even made up ones. I like the dynamics of such imagined situations. It tends to help me flex my poetic muscles in a manner of speaking.
