The Dance

The words dance through my mind ceaselessly, combinations forming sentences at the speed which I can write. No censorship, no stopping, just dancing words which warm my entire being, confronted by this ability to express.

The Brother(Sister)hood of Man

Cease our wicked ways,
Or we will perish,
Not you or me,
But all of us,
Reach with in and search for what is right,
Discover all we have to give,
Realize the promise that you live,
From birth we grow and learn,
And with experience we find wisdom ,
It is that wisdom,
We all must find,
Or else we have such little time,
We’ve accomplished much,
Yet there’s so much more to go,
Or else we’ll be dealt a devastating blow,
Dream,
Dare t live,
Dare to give,
All you can,
And we’ll rediscover,
The brotherhood of man.

Another Feast

A feast,
A three-hour tour,
Gastro intestinal treat,
Engaging all our senses,
As the lights dimmed,
And the music played,
Drowned out,
Only by the laughter,
Of our ecstatic joy,
Bring on the salad,
Spinach and shallots,
Red onion and bacon,
Mushroom and goat cheese,
Lets not forget the shrimp,
Port soaked crustinis,
Tossed in a mango orange goat cheese vinaigrette,
Whipped,
Are your taste buds alive yet?
With a sip of meaty chardonnay,
It was time,
Feeling fine,
I filled the pot,
2 lemons,
2 bay leaves,
salt and pepper to taste,
now boil and wait,
with another fine sip,
in about ten minutes,
the lobster did dip,
prior to their soothing Jacuzzi,
the larger female was a little woozy,
grabbing her by the tail,
in a last ditch effort she did flail,
it caught me off guard,
the feeling that she knew her demise,
I could see it in her eyes,
Lifting the lid,
What a rush of steam,
So much so,
We couldn’t hear them scream,
3 and a half pounds,
initially brown then red,
in about twelve minutes our mouths would be fed,
now onto the sauce,
such sweet decadence,
butter and garlic,
and some green onions,
bring to a boil,
now nothing to do,
so open the champagne,
this dinner,
for you.
