Cut It Complicated

here's one of my WIREMAN poems..........

shredded coconut
moist and tasty
inside, the feeling
in pieces and there
is no fair share
fact is there's only
the question, "do ya dare?"
laid bare sweet feast
down we are to the
last piece..."cut it complicated!"
that's what I say
mi spiritu sanctu on parade
never wanna be caught
in a charade, and like Leon Russell
said, "were lost in a masquerade"
winding, turning, big fat slice
icing dripping shreds, even when ya
gotta make yer bed on shaky ground
me smooth, slow rhythm, ahhhhh!!!!!!!
shear delight, this preflight leading
to exstacy, timeless embrace
jump in sink or swim, no about face
cuttin' my slice complicated,
just the way it's gotta be,
as I ride off into the sunset, shoutin'
"cut it complicated for me, baby please!"....mark

Ya know something? I love cocnut, and I love Leon Russell! I'm as "loony" as a bird on a wire.

Mark,
Why do I get the feeling this is about more than coconut, but loved the flow and metaphor of this.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown
