We Can Be Happy And Be Thinking of Sad
October 2, 2012
In a time we hide
Set aside to own our carnal down,
Instead We’d vent, & veer off, She & I’d,
We could hash out the passions of grief.
& Briefly we’d agree that
Like artistic admissions,
All grievings are respectable, gracious, acceptable passions.
(And if all would just go and accept them so…)
Oh, we two could clearly see it how it should go.
As for private time,
More intimate time, to spend away the night,
Well, We’re lovers who wait with all our might
(And all their thoughtful insight)
