Love Is Blind

Her heart swells with ecstacy
When he plays basketball in scorching heat
Dodges the ball here and there
With a sly smile dwelling everywhere

Before scoring the goal, he lifts his head
Throws a glance where she with everyone, treads
Drunk, deep blue but cosmic cross eyes
And she colours love in them 
Her heart pounds with misdirected love

He jumps and goals and her heart go wild
For he: a stretched Straw lands back on the court....
Like a ball rolling far and wide

Game resumes and to shed his sweat..
He flips his shirt up and low
A scare-crow figure peeps through belly
Then a daring crow comes, sit and poops on his head
He is all bones and; flesh of a pound or two
But she sees six packs flashing her eyes
And her heart swells with ecstasy

Near the end he pours water on his face
With his head high and his eyes closed
The grey shirt turns black with water and sweat
And her heart gets high with adrenaline fret
The water drops find their way out of the black silk tides;
With black lice as passesngers on-board

One nook of supposedly voluptuous lips
Hangs upward, baring sidelines of his dental scheme
A days old seed there; stuck in-between
Sows directly in the soft soil of her heart
And she can't see seed's surrounding black sea,
As her heart swells with blind love and ecstasy
