Funny Face Strikes Out

Angie Grey
The social cues were entirely uncalled for.

He credibly tried to explain for her.

Gesturing out of context was not to be

He was no mere pizza delivery boy

Hopelessly unsocialized - that fool

Then, he received papers from his check.

There was an excuse for her available.

He valiantly strived for perfection

To do the right thing, to use his knowledge

The papers said words from trusted sources

Full of meaning and facts about her...

He sent her back,this,no enigma to him.

Closure, a relief, at last

He took her things to her

To be confused by those love-struck eyes

The passion of her sensual emotions.

He found himself unable to say goodbye.

I let him go

Saying goodbye

Is never easy

Like oblivion.

Leaving the door open without a proper farewell.

Even marriage

Only lasts

For one life

Life goes away.

Waking from the kiss of death again, I sigh.

Sleep falling

Waves of blood

Cracking earth

Electric patterns...

Everything looks like dust with closed eyes.

We never touch

Like fools do

Giving seed

To more death.

There is much to re-learn about this home.
