Magnets & Cross-Eyed Children (Free verse) by Bachus I came to you in need
You followed me with lies
A gravity compressing with no compromise
A silence as heavy as all of the steel
You could put in a gun,
Or chasis on wheels.
I have for you something,
but it is a secret.
I have for you something,
you will never deserve.
A perfect attraction,
and I'll let you keep it.
A glass crackling symphony
Of garulous verve.
When I'm done, you can kiss my ass
As you make those Indians move
I'll be your future shadow's past
& bring the devil's sassiest groove.
And in fact if my memory serves me right
Which it always does
You were not much to remember
Now that magnets buzz.
Up the ladder:
Landmine
Down the ladder:
Almost forgotten

sweet father of nearsighted little-leaguers!
Cross eyed children and magnets....must have gotten shot with a BB gun. Be careful if you go for an MRI!
This poem is nowhere near as excellent as the title would suggest.
Puts the physics back in metaphysical -
I really like the sounds made by "you will never deserve" ... / "of farulous verve" 294 view(s)
