'The Lost Hippy's Alleged Tryst With Romance'  

 or

'Float'


 For Paco Alvarez Gonzalo.


(P)

Lush lips, coerce eyes,

verbose locks, windy aura.

Forgiving fragrance,

smokey nudges.

 

Gracefully waiting to sparkle,

in multi million colors of love.

 

(A)

Her 'Can you handle me?' gaze,

married with a hopeful smile.

Soaks a fragment of my soul,

only to make it more poetic.

 

More calm, drunk, lost,

fragile, childlike & nervous.

 

(C)

Orchestrating a soft affair,

when she holds me tight.

 

Whispering, caressing,

snuggling, kissing.

Her skin knavishly directs,

my being towards awe.

 

(O)

When I follow the zigzag

steps of her candy laughter.

I end up fiercely smooching,

an emotional fountain of love.

 

Surrounded by Beethoven,

Vinci, Fellini & Shams of Tabriz.

 

(.)

I swim deep in her soul,

with my unarmed truth.

Half conscious half dead,

helplessly meditating.

 

Totally tripping on her,

blending almost tirelessly,

my heart's focal point with

her stoned eyelashes.

 

Didn't she hear the cry?

the riot, right under my

mazed & bruised smile,

those blemished arcs?

 

But didn't she notice et al?

the universe made love,

every time, every time

we smoked up together.

 

The unspoken final word,

could be contaminated.

But now It's out there,

flowering, blooming, thriving.

 

I'm just a little heartbroken,

again, but there's music,

unsettling, composite music  

arming me with inspiration.

 

Solid affirmations from her

are rare & interestingly unique.

When I asked her to say

something nice, she said,

 

"The ice melts & falls on ice"

 

She didn't elaborate,

but added, "Go figure"

 

P.S. - So this is my trip & it's for real.
