Between
A Man
and
A Woman
is an Ocean that must be bridged.
An expensive toll; Expansive
Seas of doubt that commonplace strivings can overcome in time.
Shooting from the hip
Grasping your elephant gun
Bag Another.
Simple-minded singularity which expands in number exponentially with
pool hall wisdom.
Chalk up your cue, baby
It's your turn to break.
Neon- Lite beer clock glowing happily while clicking off the
biological
hours.
A time-bound reference point serves to provide Security
and Resentment,
it would appear.
Bait up your line and cast awayreeling foreign objects from
meat-market
waters.
Trust: establishment of a principle
Suspicion: bred into fabric of our tabloid television lives
Seemingly patient virtue explodes with an unparallelled wrath.
microscopic Mass
Deserved Destruction?
Motivated into Action
Keeping a Rhythm that no one else knows
Try to understand
Or Don't.
