Stimuli

Poem from the book "Songs of Moored Airships and Bottlefed Babies"

 

Stimuli.

Reaction.

Strange,

The most worthless has become

Most valuable.

Reaction.

Stimuli in another guise.

Free will?

No such thing. Only

Sociobiology.  Reaction.

Roll with the punches or your face will split.

Alchemy.

Gold into lead.

Love into indifference.

Stop me! I am changing!

When is the talisman

The fetish?

The ultimate truth

Is only a compass

In a world full of magnets.

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
