I Usually Don't Write About Love


i usually don't write about intimate relationships,
time has come to release
one of MichaelKamau's love PROSE
first i must go to the nearest flower garden,
ignore sharp thorns and select a blooming red ROSE
as a gift for all the lonely ladies...
this poem is dedicated to THOSE


what lovers have, only poetic metaphor can DESCRIBE
a husband comes home late from work,
his wife puts on a sexy outfit and HIDE
he counts to ten, then open his EYES...
she's standing directly in front of him
they hold each other tight, then laugh, kiss, CRY


their tears of joy are dedicated to the ones who rarely
experience passion and TOGETHERNESS
the ones who do not have a significant other
the ones who seem to be devoid of TENDERNESS
meanwhile, a humble poet applaud
all those who are truly in love
and are able to stay in tuned with their everyday BUSINESS


please EXCUSE, sorry for being RUDE
but i need to interrupt with this personal INTERLUDE...
i promise to be quick and SMOOTH;


personally, instead of being in LOVE,
i'd rather stand underneath a leafy tree at dusk,
just to say goodnight to the mourning DOVE
and for those who are still in search OF,
is it really worth getting drunk every weekend
down at the local PUB?
don't allow that first 'dance' to turn into
a sexually transmitted one night 'stand'
after the lights go out
at the south side singles CLUB!


back to the subject at hand
love is still the number one topic
in literary ART
poets, singers and script writers
has always offered stories about a lover
and their SWEETHEART
i'm an unpublished poet,
i usually don't write about love.
if i wish to see my books in print
or online, i guess i'd better START
