eh, another time
maybe even another place
I would be holding her hand
our strength intermingling
’neath trees of Autumn
leaves descending
upon our heads
causing both of us to laugh
aloud and squeeze our hands
we would stop
look into each others eyes
both of us thinking
of the pleasurable night ahead of us
I will sit and watch
as her build yet another poem
of her deepest inner conception
she write feverishly
about past heartaches
which hemorrhage line after line
by the glow of the computer’s monitor
then we share the night
doing other things
sans clothes and without shame
we thrill within our passion
which causes us
us to do wickedness to each other
making us smile

ahhh . . this other time
this other place
she fixes breakfast
in the midnight hour
a special time
this other time, this other place
but then . . . reality sets in
shaking me out of my reverie
I am here
in front of the monitor
my fantasy
my dream
about how I would like things to be
because I, in a straight forwarding way
will say I absolutely desire her

First base, reflecting Second base, experience. Third base fantasy. Home plate? Much yearning.

Knocked it out of the park with this poetry. Any man with a season ticket will connect with all you said.

Touch, but don't look

You sure know how to make a guy feel good so early in the morning Jack, and I thank you for that.

Even though you have been street-tempered, you really are a romantic at heart! Not just at another time or another place but everywhere you go! Don't fight me on this!

I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car.

It's a finer line between reality and fantasy and I think one day soon there won't be a line. That can be a good thing or a bad thing. I think in your poetry, you see it as a very good thing, therefore it is.

Thanks Bluesy. I do see it as a good thing . . . And it feels good that I do. I've looked negatively for much of my life, the optimism had a nice ring to it.

Focusing on one who is focused is what I see here Jerry and it makes for the most startling of images. I can see this as a staged B&W photograph or even as a painting.

Wonderful poetry.

Loving Linny Jean is poetry.

Ari, that is just wonderful what you could "see" from the poem. I thank you so much for your words.
