Umm, Excuse me, Would you Please pass the Sugar?, Thanks.

Topic: oops



This requires, too much energy expended
Go to great lengths to retain what was once here
And if it is recanted, taken away, played by semantics
Then all that was expected, exhausted, has been wasted
Which makes it all the more romantic
More intimate, closeness, in sickness, in healthiness
Provoked or unsolicited, either way-

Its pay day, and overdue appreciation
Concerted efforts to reach a feasible negotiation
Tied up in civil litigation, the docket roster dances
In anticipation, of what will come, befall, upon
Once in a pink moon, ever does the blue get outdone
Do the stars ever run, in the face of a falling comet, meteor shower,
Anything you throw at them, they shine with pride for hours-

Not ours, not theirs, not alone
Property rights, individual privacy, precedence, propriety
Postpartum claim, to the entitlement, the property, the birth right,
Do right, act right, stand-up right, now, relax your neck, its way too uptight
Concentrate on the daylight, breaks the shade, from morning to night
Keeps us company, when no one can be found, not a soul in sight
No end in sight, no end close by, no beginnings to replace,
No memories to erase, just keeps us alone, when everything is,
Just as sour as it tastes-

Bitter sweet in so many ways, cant compete,
With the remedy, the incomplete, symphony,
Of methodical beats, or whispering sheets, hanging by a tight rope
Under the tapping of my feet, inside the chamber,
Where the cold replaces the heat, and the box on the street
Is not a house for a family of three, for shade, bark up the wrong tree
Cork up the winery, the champagne, the noise,
The turning of the century, empathy, and poise, society-

We can go on for an eternity…

But whose go the energy?

I know its not you, and its sure as hell aint me…

Romance is highly overrated anyway...love that title, just because in my mind, it's sarcastic. This is well written jyss. I like the fourth stanza best.
