No delusions.

sweat sugar and let me taste your pores. get drunk and smoke be my favorite mistake. be a photograph disguised as a bookmark. be a question I never answer. we never lied after sex connected in the shower with the radio screaming , sharing a cigarette on the balcony starring at nothing in silence. talk is cheap. we were all about action, and satisfaction. no regrets. in social circles we hid like thieves. stealing are moments behind the trees. in a forest of rumors we heard them all then watched them fade like leaves in fall.. under the radar below the chin when he was gone I came right in. I felt cold that I didn’t care. karma is eternal. just a heartache away. in his bed, inside his wife. I can feel his steel, his stare a knife. but he never knew your secret life. I am the other man. a whisper a glance. you like the excitement too much to advance. it will never last. I knew it all along. no delusions, no regrets. no feelings. no respect.

Interesting format, and I like the words/mood. I think it wants to be more though. Longer - stick a vaccuum pump on it.

How did I miss this sensitive poem, like the last 3 #s on my cmputer 151 I must of had one too many shots of it we celebrate all the rest of the year..I got my head clear now a jump in the ocean and fresh guava passion fruit xtra vitamins smoothy will do that. I reeeealy like this Yes karma is eternal but some souls are worth it. Under radar you must have your own radar better than a hoary bat to pull this of being able to pull it of you must feel the intruders body heat from afar have acute hearing be very brave and in love not just lust cuz you can get thaty at any grocery store.
