PracticeA Poem by J.D. Flom
Criminally Insane?
Or minimally inane? I am childish and frivolous; You see wildish and villainous. You don’t need a syllabus Just to see the silliness. Gentle and harmless, I like you regardless. Pushing me away? Or Wishing I will stay? I can take you for a ride If you take a side. I want your approval; Not my removal. So will you take my hand? I think it would be grand! This isn’t a proposal; My heart’s at your disposal... But not the garbage kind; Can’t have that on my mind. Your words can let me in, Like the softness of your skin. Pleasant, appealing... A peasant is stealing Your heart, I hope, Or maybe I’m a dope; As I bow to my queen, Or a princess I mean, And you’re my one; my only; Without you I’m lonely. That sounded pathetic! Unless my heart’s prosthetic, I’m heels under head, I often wonder what I said... Eh, I think if you were here, To hear this little cheer, You’d have a smile to your face And I’d give up my chase. But instead I stand alone And no one’s on the phone. Just in case you’re listening, And your eyes are glistening, From my every word, As I chirp on like a bird, I’d be okay with your rejection... If only it wasn’t my reflection. © 2011 J.D. Flom |
