A long time ago before call-waiting! :)
Gossip still, however, has the same old dangers.



We are all witches
Connected by a buzzing
Telephone net--
Man-created Toy--
Sorceresses’ pleasure.

This instrument facilitates
Dipping a long spoon
Into the broth of
Monogamous excitements,
Stirring treacherous vortices.

Gossip hisses
Through innocuous space &
Ye Goddesses!
I am
One of the Witches!

Dial a friend,
And to hear the busy hum
Is to feel a glow of
Comradeship before
Annoyance &
Frustration.

With what other Sister
Does she mutter &
Cackle—
And—
Does she
Turn about &
Talk about
Me?

For some years now, my only connection to my distant friend has
been the telephone. Long may it ring. This is good stuff, Juliet.

How true, how true! I think we have all been on both sides of the phone one time or another :)

The telephone, a quaint device used to hear the other person (and find out all about the neighbors). Now, we type our conversations, removing ourselves as far away from the person called as possible. Excellent, Juliet.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Juliet,
Ah yes, how to turn the everyday into something special; love the witch images with 'broth' and 'treacherous vortices' and 'cackle'...when shall we three meet again? Great stuff!

John

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.
