Fever
His charged hands explored her slightly more than average world.
They were to become a couple, but hadn’t yet.
She drove his crazy mind
wild with the force of her spirit in which he trusted.
Pure, vile, delinquent, nostalgia
drove a purpose from which she couldn’t hide.
His strong arms,
clutching her,
squeezing her,
only ever her.
Rising up in polite, gentle, fatigue,
she spoke.
She moved firmly
and directed her eyes
so he could see the truth of her plight.
Making upright gestures,
of downright backwards awareness,
of a dangerous daydream.
Uplifting, closed doors,
hexagonal smiles nailed to the floor.
Robust buttons saying, “I do,” once more.
How many times does she have to die?
Before the law lets her off.
Guess what?
Oh crikey!
Wow! Thursday!
Exploring the circumstances.
Speechless,
she listened to what she heard.
“Oh golly!”
The colour of love,
cooking sweet smells.
Painting neon hearts,
on papered walls.
Flashes of caresses.
No steam, just very hot.
No dream, just waiting.
Watch out for all the holes.
She’ll fall with grace
and fly in the face of stupidity.
If only she had time to think,
to stop and wink.
She’ll die before you,
when the blue moon shines,
and awakens the ultimate truth.
The goal of wisdom’s spent youth,
playing instruments of lust,
when love’s lute is all you hear.
She opens her ear
for clarity.
A choice of what next:
you or who?
Not me.
Plenty to choose from.
She found a key from her uncle
and told herself, “Don’t open that door.”
But she was curious and hopeless
for more;
to discover another land
that was once hidden,
now suntanned.
The goat that eats everything;
the child inside.
Coming home one day, slowly
for a while under mistletoe.
She’s forgotten everything she knows.
She felt wondrous in the snow,
complete and frightened.
No time for games;
no time for change;
no time to arrange;
no finer time to exchange.
Situation vacant,
interviews all year.
Please, someone, do the right thing.
Her right arm by her side,
an honour to be there.
Only a few proud owners.
Sexy lovers, one nice brother:
let god decide.
