The touch of Ferns
If all I really wanted was to try
To find amours as words well up in me;
Would it be difficult - so hard to fly
To express lustful spontaneity?
Sex cannot really be found to be far
From those with clear affection, for without
Fucks are ephemeral: each shooting star
Rushes towards defeat and, then, to rout;
If loving happiness is when your thoughts
And writings harmonise within the mind,
I'll walk those dusky gardens; I have sought
Demanding, fucking passion; all I find
Are ideas, green as new ferns, to resist -
Words that flinch and struggle to exist.
To find amours as words well up in me;
Would it be difficult - so hard to fly
To express lustful spontaneity?
Sex cannot really be found to be far
From those with clear affection, for without
Fucks are ephemeral: each shooting star
Rushes towards defeat and, then, to rout;
If loving happiness is when your thoughts
And writings harmonise within the mind,
I'll walk those dusky gardens; I have sought
Demanding, fucking passion; all I find
Are ideas, green as new ferns, to resist -
Words that flinch and struggle to exist.

it's a cassoulet I've been cooking up for a while - hope it was fit for consumption

Oh how we long for that passion

Well I do agree, not much passion breeding out of our pens. Maybe I should take a new approach and add a little spice to the same bland meal.
