What a strange lot these people must be! <br />They expose true hearts and set words free. <br />Some take you to single light-bulb flophouses, <br />others to Aegean seas as lovers or spouses. <br /> <br />Some seductively set you up and then bite. <br />They suck your soul with ghoulish delight. <br />Some force you to look up words like 'ruminate' <br />Which by the way, just means to meditate. <br /> <br />Some reveal memories of that very first kiss. <br />Others hint of erotic passions of lovers' bliss. <br />Poems written to a melody of a distant song. <br />Poets that have been silent for much too long. <br /> <br />Poems universal as rain, personal as a tear. <br />Love, while exposing....exploring every fear. <br />Some dream of how they want to be kissed. <br />Some speak of grandparents, now deeply missed. <br /> <br />Poems of that heavenly moment of sweet surrender. <br />Poems of hearts torn in fate's high speed blender. <br />Worlds seen through a lover's embrace, <br />Love or pain that time simply can not erase. <br /> <br />The universes I once saw in her eyes <br />and the pain of saying long goodbyes. <br />Worlds of rainbows, butterflies, and trees. <br />Dark expressions by dread dead mangled zombies. <br />How do they do it? ? ? ? <br /> <br />5 Jan.2007<br /><br />Zen Bojczuk<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poets-5/
