My Twentieth Year - 27. Muscle and bone, that's all it is

Poem No. 55

 

Prelude:

 

Muscle and bone, that's all it is

blood and brains, that's all it is

put together in a way

that makes my humor and mind

sing of them:

 

 

Poem:

 

A note of amorous kind

passed with a smiling nod

that says more than the note

 

she opens it like a great find

her eyes dart, a smiling nod

that says more than he wrote

 

gleefully she gets a pen

finds a paper that's almost blank

and jots something then

 

a note most amorous sent

passed with a smiling nod

that says more than the note

 

he opens it like a great event

his eyes dart, a smiling nod

that says more than she wrote

 

 

...this is the second-to-last poem of the collection...

Oh sometimes I wish I was brighter or had a better imagination but this to me was just about our basest instincts...and plain old sex.

Well, prelude to sex maybe. It was just a boy and girl in class passing notes, and I noted how happy they made one another at that moment :) I was probably more than a little jealous that I had no hopes of ever connecting with someone like that - at least as my closeted brain ran at that point in time.

 

Thankfully, I was wrong! Thanks for the review, Tim.

Really like the Poem, which says so much in so little space, for the recurring idea lets us imagine a very great deal. Muscle and Bone is just a tease for a greater discussion...one you must have had over many hours as an undergrad, no?

You're kind to leave a review, and I appreciate it, Parker. One more to go, and it's of a different kind. Cheers
