lingering is not loitering

Post by saw » November 17th, 2015, 2:40 pm

linger
long as you can
I know you're married
but you are so easy on the eyes
and bright
witty
with a real live personality
not like all the dead ones I meet
and what harm
comes from a conversation
so let me quickly bring up
a new topic
so maybe you can linger
a few more seconds
it ain't against the law you know
lingering, no it ain't
that's loitering
which is way different than this
lingering is healthy
well, at least for me
lingering is a tonic
to be ingested like good food
I don't think I'm being unreasonable
a little linger
might bring a smile to a bland face,
in fact I know it will
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Nice! Kind of romantic even...
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

attraction cannot be held back. it's too linger with, enjoy it while it's there.

I like this, Steve.
