And your passion
can take a walk
along my garden gate
anytime
where lust
and experimentation
simply could not wait
for wads of cash
and hidden nests
of our affection
and tales we'd tell
the starstruck children
with our remedies.
But this would be an alternate universe.
We would feed the hungry
and I would be a Dutch citizen
and you would be gay,
overpoweringly so
and I would laugh and blush and smoke
as you danced and drank red wine on
the edge of our Tibetan cliff.
Reality would not face us,
would not deface us, beauty.
Spark the dazzlingly sky,
open the portal like an Avengers' spin off
and we could show the backwards world
how active we could be.
I'd help old ladies cross the street
and sing in the kitchen most of the day
while you sat in the sunshine
and wrote poems I could not
dream up myself.
But this would be an alternate universe.
Reality would not face us,
would not deface us, oh, beauty.

My god! whooooosh! Really
In the updates when I saw the title
it seemed uncannily familiar. Once
I was here, then the letters rearranged
themselves. Guess I was scizo for a minute.
'and tales we'd tell
the starstruck children
with our remedies'
followed by the 'alternate universe'
reference is so beautiful, really. :)
'Reality would not face us,
would not deface us, beauty.'
Almost the high point. Very powerful.
Loved this write. All the way.
Sumeet
p.s- A few things
'and we could show the backwards world'
I feel it should be 'backward' here
(if used as an adjective)
'dazzlingly' should be 'dazzling'.
Old ladies and singing in the kitchen
made me giggle for longer than usual.
Thank you.:)
