An Ode To The Note Left On The Fridge Door
AN ODE TO THE NOTE LEFT ON THE FRIDGE DOOR
Not that it matters, but who could have foreseen the end of the world
That silky-sulky visceral notion dawning on the horizon
It whispers in hot agitation about what
Matters and bothers shall not burden
But ease for once and all the worries about
Who and what and why, and the collaterals of
Could but would not or should but do not
Have to endure this notion of dry dreams and dire desires much longer
Foreseen but forborne the regrets of dismay
The end, that pompous pretender, of vain pursuits in vain
Of the world of this love that be just well come and go as it may
Now, whether this is an ode to all ends or rather
An elegy for all beginnings
Matters little when you know that I know that you know that
The note on the fridge door says it all
At the end
Once again
All will be well
Once again

A brilliant, original poem. Breathtaking stuff.
