Love Boat



what I`ve to do to kiss u,to kiss ur shadows
pain of parsippany?!how many deaths wilt it
take to take me to ur loveladenlake,where the
lily,lotus,chrysanthemums forever flutter,
glow in the sun,in the moon,in the rain
blooming in the ever breezy spring o` love-
lipped flute,wasting away their fragnances in
the desert air of ur sweet,virgin,chaste,temple-torn-faith-belief
O please correct me if i ain`t
but i think a day you will get all wet,
drowned with all that pride and beauty of
which u r so proud,deep,dark,fathomless
u r love-boat,ship will sink in the seas,
oceans uncharted,unseen,unchalked
made of my coughing Keats kindred
sighs-sorrow-sadness-fraught-foam!
