"Sweetheart Wonderland"

by Jeph Johnson

 

she shapes me
while my hands affirm
fantasies of flesh
partaking in her
grand return
of kind benevolence
I fathom further
in my mind
perfection I'd possess
if only her
perception finds
it's way through tenderness
and views my motives
(right or wrong)
as part of who I am
choosing emotive
songs I've sung
in sweetheart wonderland
she takes me places
in her chamber
I have never been
makes me face
impending danger
liable for sin
my fate descending,
almost frantic
as the clock ticks down
I await content,
romantic shock
that's world renowned
