twice

twice

A Poem by delapruch
"

na.

"

seems twice was two long

to think,

seems that “wisdom”

prevailed &

put up the road block between

said possible action &

the reality of

defeat in

retrospect---

what could’ve been

had but only one chance,

one possibility &

all the ifs, ands, ors &

buts,

left nothing in the seconds after

s/he walked away…

s/he walked away…

yes,

s/he walked away, denied,

leaving

the other party with

their proverbial pants

down, with all the time in the

world to ponder

just what this “wisdom” really is,

with blue balls,

with the bluest of

walls throbbing,

with dissatisfaction

taking its toll &

lingering viciously,

with oh,

a long night ahead.

Those are the breaks! Somebody had their heart set on doing the deed, only to have their advances turned down. Cold shower? I had to read it 'twice' to get a more developed meaning! Nice Job!
