I remember a sense of paralytic seizures taking hold on my physical self like a pit bull something crawled the stone steps into my throat affecting my ability to communicate it's worse when I'm not around you that's when I begin to see you everywhere my toast and coffee in the morning remind me of your steamy breath and brown skin you grace all the billboards of my mind sexy mamma or the Doris Day girl next door you're smiling at me from every passing car at sunset you beckon to me from the west I've learned to resist your alluring lure I've learned your heart distorts the love I gave I've learned mind over matter when you appear I've learned to never allow me to lust for you still, I see you every day of my life my eyes shut you come to me in day-dreams you take my body and do what you will I am ashamed you can possess me so the daily images of you is almost at an end as I trudge up the Mississippi River Bridge I take a deep breath look into the dark below knowing you'll be waiting for me when I leap ©December 2, 2010 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

I absolutely love it! And put it at the top of the pile of your writings. And the ending - PERFECT! I love unexpected endings that grab one and throw them on the ground. . . . in case you didn't get the word, one hell of a write! j. |

You damn straight, Jimmmy, I surely got your drift. When a poet receives a fantastic, and glowing comment on one of his/her poem like this one, it makes for a wonderful sort of week. Thank you so much, my friend. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
