[hometext] => This poem aims to transcend the banality of true love and reach for something more...for what i don't know.
[bodytext] => I'm sorry i'm looking at you with condescending eyes,
It's just too easy to blame you for the way you are. Still, I can't stare past your lies and into your soul because The symbolic sighs held within are too dark for me to divide. Spreading like your thighs, your memory of me is expanding-- It's cluttered with dogma and pornography. Catholic liturgy casts A cynical glow upon my cheeks, I weep. Yet no light from above Illuminates my drudgery, but rather the inconsistencies of my being. You and I could be a single concupiscent entity, yet you blush At the mere mention of manogomy, you feign ***** me For the sheer pleasure of reducing me to nothign more than Post-coital jetsam; the detritus of your conquest, the spoils Of our tainted love. Instead, I'm shipwrecked on your beach, Pushing through the sand with my feet, wanting to know-- My heart is full of love and your shores are littered with dead Doves. You've fallen from grace; you're burried in sand Up to your neck and down past your toes. I'm calling to you While the waves crash beside me like a couple in the midst of Passionate throes. You and I were once capable of weathering The storms of ineptitude, but circumstances fall quicker than rain, Dropping on the surface of my ocean. I absorbe the sky, swallowing Its tears, so that our salts will combine and season my mouth. I hope The next time we kiss, that you'll be able to tast all that has impeded Me in my search. I've scoured the coast of your beautiful body, looking For a way inside, but to no avail. I must set sail and leave your shores behind.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
