 Finding The Flood - Poems by Jeremy Joel

51-49



Cease-fire broken
I'm diplomatic again
Man's infidelity
Her ammunition


Accusations amazing
Burdens of proof
Matrimony as psychotherapy
Unravel the truth


Trust and acceptance
Freedom to be free
Lust of a temptress
Won't tempt your security


Asphyxiating silence
Elephant in bed
The burning of eyes
Wheels in her head


Histories inextinguishable
We're fanning the flames
Gone fathers and good women
Fine printed names


The first nine months
Not trimesters designed
Yuppies detested
Had babies and rested (it's 51-49)


Beginning of the end
Or end of beginnings?
Conservatism is lovely
When you're tired of sinning


Impurity or insanity?
A consequential decision
Imagination is wickedness
With handwritten vision


Divorce as a threat
Mere pessimism
A claustrophobic apartment
Finally looks optimistic


Life is employment
Love's often rented
Lest we forget
The slimmest percentage
