A Necessary Evil

Talking from a distance
And the thought is lost in mid-air
Through the closeness of two lips touching
Minds are read with out one word
You have created a friend
Among those who hate you
The conversation quickly turns
Into what you wanted it to be
Glass bottles
Chained to bicycles
The wheels spin in one motion
An idea sparked in thoughtlessness
Speak of the dark and the sun eventually sets
A scary face
No one plays, the
Guitar, they hang on hooks, like
Racks of meat
Lines of carcasses being cooled
Frozen freshness fried for food
She looks like a pig
With folds and crevasses
Deep pockets
Hands clasped over legs
A gentle smile
With eyes of fire
Her laughter
Pours like water
From across the corridor
The walls echo surrender
Superfluous with spontaneous banter
Something extra special about her
Her credentials
Are impeccable
A resume for disaster
Splattered brainwaves
Better quality
Delivered faster

I gotta say, you are one of only a handful of poets here, with this kind of rich and enthusiastic style-
a barage of metaphor and imagery abounds in this-
I love it..
Truly-
Billy
