Two Summers of LoveA Poem by Jerome F Knox III pseudonym Nefarious J. Dorsey
A second marriage
Left me in Babylon With no Exodus in sight The handwriting was On the wall as the number Was scribbled On the divorce decree Child Support $$$$$ For baby girl Circa 3/21/2004 My twenty two week old Less than two pound Miracle was born And survived and is Thriving today I remembered the first Time I tried to leave As separate bedrooms Left cobwebs between Her legs and the closets In my soul Angry that I had To beg for affection So I started to do some Spring cleaning When you pissed On that EPT stick I was soaked in The urine of deception I needed to cleansed by The truth But my angel could Never know that I wasn't sure if she Was mine to freely roam In my heaven and Be called my angel My heart could not Let her play with Pandora's box That's no toy For a grown up Not alone a child And now I have Experienced two births My daughter and My celibacy Divorce came Visual acuity Was slow and painful Distracted by That South Beach Life Style Living on the 12th floor In a condo facing The ocean Sleeping on the balcony Most nights Even when it rained My bedroom was A graveyard where Desires for flesh Ceased R.I.P. In my favorite watering hole She came and my life Would never be the same For four months she went To war with my celibacy And finally in a dimly lit apartment We did it upside down on Her apartment floor 7 years gone in flash No more Now for that pleasure She got a trove of treasures Condos note paid A Benz and Yukon I managed to get me A dually and a viper I should have listened to That car I should have left Going from 0-60 in Under four flat Was better than where I was at The court paper I found On the floor Charged her with being A w***e I spent over 300k Or more Bankrupt from Two Summers of Love © 2015 Jerome F Knox III pseudonym Nefarious J.
