Trip
We tiptoe 'round
feelings, and other
confuzzling things
we dare not read into
cement-stayed with ends-frayed all
stinging beneath our heart's lining.
Tickling the pineal with limerick
the ole gland, the grand ‘ship
submerged in emotion yet
surfacing empty, after and only
while we were left drowning in
home-grown defeat.

Confuzzling…cement-stayed? The neologism leaves me wandering in a country not meant for old men. Bonus points for originality, minus for obfuscation for no apparent reason. You’re one of the better poets here and I greatly enjoy your creativity but….

oh Mr. D, I realize not every poem is for every person and yet I hear everything you are saying here including a rather lovely compliment falling somewhere deep in between..
I appreciate you stopping by and taking the time, as always.

Dear U,
It’s great to see you! I appreciated this poem for the truth in relationships where having the hard talk is tucked away beneath the chats that barely scratch the surface of “and how was your day?” You always get right to the nub of the situation so succinctly.
Great piece. H🌷

Wait, l get it: confusing plus puzzling equal confuzzling. Kinda cute, actually. Is that what’s called a portmanteau? And you, ever gracious.
