![]() UntitledA Poem by Wilyem Clark
I should have spent today with you, My funny unknown friend; The time is always far too short To waste it on Pretend, But only through speculation do I Make the flesh more real And weave into a substance That which is at best ideal.
You could be short, you could be tall, You could be in-between; You could be light, you could be dark" Perhaps a shade of green? Transparent to a fault, you weigh A fraction of a feather; Instead of being overwhelmed, I'm one when we're together.
Imagination has its bounds;
I'm bound to borrow features From actors, models, jocks, and yes, Assorted fabulous creatures. And so it goes, week in, week out, This weakness in the knees; If only I knew who you are, I'd give your bones a squeeze. © 2018 Wilyem Clark |
