She has a mullet
Older than the other
Dark haired, heavily attired
Partner, or girlfriend rather?
No sleek, womanly forms
Nor painted fingers walking
On pointy stilts in tight skirts
They are not sexy, not
The head-turning type
There they are
Locked in each other’s arms
Hands over nape
On the sunny street corner
Where buses converge
First, they touched lips
Saying goodbye
Then it turned into a French
Kiss: savoring deep
Into each other’s flavors
Writhing with appetite
Invisible squirming
Downright obsessive
Obliviously
. . . .
A poem is often “incidental”
Like witnessing the kiss
Behind the wheel
On a sunny street corner
Between the two women
Like twisting silken scarves
into a fancy knot
What is a kiss?
What is a poem, in this matter?
Remember the joke?
“What does a human need
a tongue for?”
Anyway, one thing is for sure
That I am happy to be living
In the world of love

creativity comes from LOVE, i believe.....love of fellow human beings, animals, nature....the whole universe.....
when LOVE is incomplete, one's art is destined to be handicapped....
your thoughtful comments make this blog worth continuing...
:)
cheers, all!!
thank you for sharing beautiful things make me Think always...
我這裏所說的“美”不是那種標準的美,我指的是那些能 nourish us 的“美”,比如這首詩歌裏的瞬間。。。
"I have no money, no resources, no hopes. I am the happiest man alive."
米勒會這樣說,以他無論在何種境地,無論和怎樣的人在一起,他都能感到被 nourished。。。找到“美”感。。。另外與他無盡的創造力有關,無盡的創造力又來自什麽都能 nourish 他。。。比方說啃豬蹄兒:)))))))))))
i think my poem has "purified" the moment...:)
ZF: "...看到美使人快樂,快樂的人常看到美..."
well said!!
thanks guys!!

一顆愛的心多看到的是美。。。喜歡!!!
世界真的有很多美麗動人之處,看到美使人快樂,快樂的人常看到美。。。
這首詩的寫作手法我也很喜歡。。。
同意作舟樓下發言:)
“i think "自由" is actually not the ultimate goal in life....
the happiest person[s] are those who can still love, share love through doing beautiful things, such as creative things or helping each other....“
to be honest, at first i was not sure about writing it....
but then, i thought watching two women so passionately kissing on the street doesn't happen very often....:))
