As The Magpies Flown by Philip F De Pinto Despite our falling Out - what What better virginal pressing Than you impress on mine Your adverse sublime Hit or misses What better rant Than I plant My aardvark kisses On your endearing can And don't say I can't Just because you are not My aunt But you were The lickety break I strove for and not the split And what better Than we break with tradition Of traditional breakup And head for unconventional makeup And spend the remainder Of our making up Living and cantoring it up In the minarets of our verses And rhyme Time after subliminal time And now that as they say The rays have as the magpies Flown to a less tranquil place And it is raining on my charade Oh that your pied piper had not given Your rat tat tat the toot Oh that your puss ' n boot Would spray its mace in my face I would be gladly blind Oh that we could establish A new oral tradition And I could taste you again Savor your every nuance and shade And tidbit Surfing on the waves of My palaver again And have the vaginal bud Budding the more It would press Against the tongue's lathe What better aim Than I could lay claim To us again And say the hell with rays The blazes with rain And charades Oh what I'd give to live To have it made in the shade Again with you 04/26/2014 Posted on 04/26/2014 Copyright © 2024 Philip F De Pinto Member Comments on this Poem Posted by Clara Mae Gregory on 04/26/14 at 02:55 PM *****SUPER NOVA STELLULAR***** Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 04/28/14 at 03:42 PM Both sensuous and sensual.
