conversational capers

~

we are ravenous creatures

hungrily tearing away at this conversation
like naked urchins quarreling over some haggard t-shirt

i am a seasoned player
at stealing words from your mouth
bathing them in new phonetics
and arranging them on my tongue

because your words are my words;
oh so many empty china vases ready to brandish fresh blossoms

you are the man
cradling lady luck in your arms
lavishing her with your affectations
and affections alike;
your sweet-mouthing seems to flow from a cornucopial dam

like untamed wanton kittens
we keep meeting through wintry nights
to get entangled in balls of woolly words

your eloquence leaves me breathless!
my oh my
am i really as erudite as you make me?

*snatch*

*catch*

*snatch*

*catch*

conversation is never going to be enough

let us run away to another world
make a lot of money
and buy each other more life time validity
let us recharge ourselves
and get back to what we cannot cease to do
