Cupid loosed
a love potion
laced arrow alas
and alack
thy nineteen year
young daughter
Shana Aubrey,
smitten
with glassy eyed
and feverish
amorousness
toward a English
lad named Zak,
she feels
sad, cuz
she iz
to return back
to the
United States
less than
a month
(with my youngest
sister Shari Todd,
and her other
family members
of the
Dunning claque
this papa,
whose youth
and ungathered
rosebuds inter alia
elapsed scores
of years ago
n'er did
find himself
as the
fetching beau
asper any
pretty
young thang,
nar did I own
a handy dandy
blues clue
how to appease
biological call viz,
sowing wild oats
as pubescent
time came due
shortchanging
natural predilection
to gather rose
buds at primal age
but took
refuge within
a hermetically
sealed cage
which com
plex emotional
edifice
accessible equipage
then (and
now) solely
in my
possession,
yet needle, sans
measuring gauge
now registers
very low
sexual excitation
on face dial image.
Though mine pre
pubescent young
life bereft
shot thru
being gun shy,
hence threadbare
warp and weft
and as an
emotionally
troubled teen,
never livingsocial, left
a gaping
figurative hole,
aye n'er didst
fabricate
essential heft
tee warp
and woof, upon
which adult inter
personal linkedin
knit wit
get solidly stitched
instead an
irreparable
threadbare cleft
where tapestry
remains unwoven
though
more deft
nothing but
cold embers left
nor apropos
for this lix spit tilled
aged rooster,
who can
bare cluck
to romp in accordance
as a young buck
or squawk
like a trumpeting
drake hula
hooping duck
thus, twas glad and
breathed sigh
of relief when,
thee punim
summoned
verve and pluck
to chap up affinity
to discover
visa vis
unbridled passion
unlike this
old man
with youthful
romance,
he never
didst truck!
