Hello everyone, I hope you all are enjoying the last summer days! I want to make everyone sure to check Jennifer's blog on myspace and facebook to read her new poems, they're great and also check out her twitter account to follow, making her words mine, her wayward life ;) I just want to post her latest poem because I really love it!
Figment I have decided that you are a figment of my imagination
this is not how the story was to go
we met in the dark wood
a place of comfort
my natural habitat
our eyes passed
a moment then two
a turn of the head
a sip of wine
and we met
you boy with the soft eyes
I felt you
I feel you now…
even so far
up we went in a metal box
our first time
I looked over at you and wanted to place my lips
to yours and feel
I waited an hour, or two
the call was too strong to ignore
you one the other side of the seat
I leaned and kissed the soft of you
we saw art and dined
we spoke of music and space
we fucked and laughed—me, a bit too loud
maybe that was why?
did you judge my life light
am I too much?
my imagination IS a dangerous thing
it can create and assign responsibilities
and worlds for our future selves
the lives we could have, happily
maybe even together,
figment one
I fell in like, into the possibility
the fake you
and now I can’t stop
you did say once upon a time
that I was danger
but what you really meant was you were danger
for me
