Shrink Wrap
Illogic Circuit
My down-time thinking smelled like smoke
nobody even got the joke
or if they did it didn’t show
I’ve told all of the jokes I know
and waited there until time to go
with hang-down head and sorry eyes
no one could even criticize
for lack of feeling critical
my neck wrapped in umbilical
I felt her love and walked away
since what needs said I cannot say
and feel I should not anyway
for light shines brightest in the dark
I think my thinking caused a sparkEmotion Sickness
Her words without meaning but feeling revealing
Her longing for knowing for what she would long
Her messages garbled, birds warbled no clearer
Much dearer to her was to whom she’d belongShe would be his possession, confession withstanding
She wasn’t demanding but standing behind
She’d tease as she pleased and she pleases so easy
Much pleasing was forfeit somehow in her mindHis heart was a part of his notion of devotion
His trust was a must that was just about knowing
His growing was showing reclusive but strong
Much ado would ensue as to where he was going
And going was about knowing he couldn’t be wrong

@complicatedlight -
details, details… fine print
between the lines of the soul
some folks forever seek the button
while I’m mostly trying to find the hole
hehe…nice bonus detail.

@complicatedlight - it’s ok phil, while away, you while well
