Best Romance

CLAMOUR
Lacework in their fences and cabinetry. His
interurban understanding of the world touches
tightropes and urban legends, her effervescent,
bubbling personality make her all the more magnetic.
Often she saves time by rolling down the windows.
Attired in cotton, she doesn’t need a hair dryer. 
Bubble packaging comes with the new laser discs,
Earning a living takes all day every day, and dishes
Clink around in the washer rarely, they’re trying to save.
Obliging the water company, maybe they know the
lachrymose troubles of their co-workers, and help.

CLAMOROUS
Tattletale instead of telltale, the little girl in pigtails.
Style years later has clothes. She says how, He, I’m so
Attired, he says, I’m so
attainable, but I’m going this way, you’re
Clamorous and not glamorous enough, no
Awareness will be found without reaching out.
Noisome odors of dead fish rise in heat. New water
Intervenes with old and washes away the dead bones.

CLAMP
Climbing the mountain, the men and women set out,
Lunacy has evaded them.  The romance is in the leaves,
Inundation of water, the waterfall designs in town.
Vigilante of rhyme and reason, he is no one, ordinary,
Aware only of his own shoe laces as I and my brother.

Mockups bow before him, kneel actually though briefly,
Earpieces make a show of him when he walks into shop,
Loathed technology has become manly.  He wears a hat.
Clamping down on the glued wood, he contains himself.
Horseplay between children, wrestling an
Asylum of football Sundays for grown men. In
Tiptop shape their women toning their bodies on
Safaris and at the gym.  I think a kiss is required
asymmetrically somewhere here, the lopsided rabbit.
Your life is sacred as ours, we draw a circle around us,
Introversion making us silent and more observant,
Moderated by cantors and hypnosis.

nothing with being introverted...the quiet ones pay attention, and in the end are sought out.

i especially like the wording in the second part of this...

i like the progression of age and maturity seen in this one.
