For many it is the challenge; not the prize.



She                                waits for the kingdom’s apparent 6’3” heir

He                                                      percolates on the sway of her hips and the fragrance of her hair

It’s                                                                                the door of a dalliance many have entranced

 

She                                                                                      preens and mentally awards him her perfect pair

He                                                                                 capitulates and warms to her like a Frigidaire

Prepared                                            to steal away her special recompense

 

Leaving

 

her empty and with limited reserve

    Your poems reflect a wide range of emotions, Jerry. It\’s rare to see someone who really writes what they feel.

    I dont know how to write any other way. Well, that is not entirely true, but I prefer to write this way. It is cathartic. I observe and I write. I feel and I write. I think and I write.

    Simple really, like me.
