Of Hearts and Keys

by Kris Dibou, warrior poet/pirate


On a lavish textured slope
With megaprim tree, built;
My lover, sweet, lay in my arms,
Couple 10 in kilt.

And we commented on the moon
And stars that dripped like honey;
I made a joke and she chuckled as
If she thought it funny.

I carressed her cheek with words formed sweet
As I was want to do;
Seduced her mind and soon, in time,
Seduced her body too.

To touch a soul, electric though
The cover seems to be;
Makes one link to the picture, big,
And think of hearts and keys.

I shall not weep when off she creeps
And lays down with another
For now it’s clear we were not here
Not me, and not my lover

Such tricks are played on minds thus swayed
By words and sunsets painted;
But I would not trade moments spent
With reality untainted.

    Nice poem.

    Unrelated note -

    Our GOOD computer blew up last night in an accident, wherein moving a bag of laundry as we were getting ready to leave knocked it off the table and fubared it. Every attempt to fix it went bust, and we’re left with a 500Mhz POS with only 325 megs of Ram, so I won’t be on SL until we can spare $300 to get a new comp. And no, it’s not a plea for anyone to send money to my Avie for me to send to PayPal. You want to donate to hurry me getting back on SL? I won’t refuse it.

    Anyway, anyone needs me, my MSN is OfTheAerie@hotmail.com

    Griefers will be blocked and mocked, so don’t waste the effort.

    Wish me luck replacing the good comp.
