The poet’s night out.
This cunning linguist so
loquacious is he
His lascivious tongue
moves freely
He speaks with freedom and
rhyme
Moving his ideas line by
line
Drunk on speech as if it
were fine wine
He will charm her if he
can
Free roaming existing
without a strict plan
Becoming jovial and
sentimental as the drunkenness progresses
For she has caught the
poets eye a eulogy to her he professes
For he is having a joyous
time and her beauty is so magnificent
Though he acknowledges
this evening and its merriment is transient
As all things are, and in
the morning when the wine has been drunk
The words spent memories
blurred and the brain is pure funk
But for that short period
he promises a dance in words and ideas
Wrapping each other in
ecstasy and temporarily letting go of fears
Lost in the process of
conveying and interpreting meaning
For a short experiential
moment we can keep each other dreaming.
But she is a realist and
falls not for his dialectical
Explaining she wants
something that is real not theoretical.
So it seems that having
your way with words can be much easier
