Dinks
My friends are
Double incomed and
No kids
Proud not to have any
They dote over puppies
And antiques as old
As their attitudes have become

She looks like a kid
My kid sister
Though we had different parents
My kid sister nonetheless
The scar on her neck
Unnoticeable an hour after
Hallway hugs and
She looks so good
To have beaten the cancer
That ate her

Better than she ever had

And the hosts
I hugged the former
Hip twister harder
Than my own brother

But they dink
And dink
And write flowery words
For Border's afternoons
To read and
Pat pat
It's good I know
But it dinks

Dinking jaws drop
As I tell them I am
Divorcing
Too un-republican
I know
It dinks, not more
Suprising than
That I ever got married though
They dink at me

And the other one
The user
Didn't show
Until lunch the next day
Disconnected
We connected
In our disconnection
He looks used up
But the same
Disconnected from ex
From son
From the universe

Disconnected
Like me

It dinks

***Rebel,
This poem is great.
Cast aside societies stupidities and live YOUR life, not THEIRS.
I welcome your words with an open mind....fantastic.
