FAIR GAMES


Oh, I do not believe what I see
Your mask of sobriety
And insistence on lying so carefully
Have you not interpreted the stories
That the tell tale chemicals brewing say?
Have you not smelt unhurriedly
The balmy scent of affinity in the air?
And the utter casualty it could prove to be.

The accidental brushing of skin
Right across mine
And the heightened emotions that pass me by
Like a mindless butterfly
That bats its wings
As I sink in deeper
In your bottomland of pretentious nonchalance
Made of your seemingly insouciant words
And the unintentional glance.

Now, listen, you must cease
This troublesome demolition of me
With such immense amount of ease.
Can we not sit and negotiate
A fair game of affection?
May be over a coffee
or some great conversation?
If you only choose to consider my offer
I say we could both a game win
Of benevolent manipulation
And strictly no fancies and whims
