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
