A Poem for Izzie and Iggy

What you devoutly shared,
You might
still
have shared
Not as lovers’ secrets,
But as thoughts, open
And showing your care



A clear communion,
As between one speck
From another world and
One more, made kindred
By shared origin ?



Or do ‘the poets pipe
Of love’ childishly ? :
Gawain
, elevating
His slight dalliance,
Because he is famed… ?

Postlude :




Twinned traitors

He enjoys stories
Of her dark,
sexy
exploits
With the other men


It makes the sex sharp,
And
fine
, that he might hit her
For what he'd allowed



Succubus

Sucking your nipples
Till you
came
(or seemed to come... ?)
Accorded prowess :


Flattery's efforts
Let you worm in warming hope
Which you could then
crush

A Poem for Iggy II


Stardust sounds so much fun,
Unlike, dear Iggy,
Major Tom, dutiful,
The protein-pill man,
Making all the grades



Louis chirp-states Stardust,
Before throatily
Drawling with scat notes
Out the melody’s
Lines, lovingly so



Even when Stéphane
Sends smiles through the song***,
Stardust is more dust, still,
Than Star-Shine Bright,
From another world

A Poem for Iggy I


Iggy Not-Quite-Stardust,
And Not-Much-Spaceman,
Crash-landed with his craft
In that southern Sea
Of Isabella



Gravity’s attractions,
Notwithstanding strong,
Quite unsecondary
In that descent, swift
To Isabella



Hush, said Isabella,
Whisht
, whispered then he :
For he did not un-know,
But knew, knew anew,
Through Isabella
