And Now the Poetry Flows

In 20,000 Years

By Obsidian c. 2017

Man!

I ain’t kiss like that in 20,000 years!

I saw you

You were glowing like a furnace

In the Latin Quarters of town

Your cheeks were flushed like Christmas time

Nervous, I checked my pocket watch

It had stopped at 12 midnight, just like my heart

But what the hell! Time is just an illusion

Am I dreaming? You are a dream

I don’t know how all this business happened

But we closed the distance between

Each other on the trolley car

The city of Old San Juan screamed out below us

And we kissed like we were hungry for something

Like we wanted to start a revolution

Your tongue felt like wet velvet

It was slippery and illusive

And I chased after it

I

Chased it as if it was an I.Q. test

I must admit I was flummoxed

Taking a step back I bore witness

To your statuesque face

And wondered who started this fire?

Was it us or The Carthaginians?

It had to have been the Persians

They worshipped Mithra

Forget about all that!

Our stop came too soon

We missed it

Sometimes it’s good to be lost

So we closed the distance between us once more

And kissed like we were trying to save the world

All the while I was thinking to myself

Man! 

I ain’t kissed like that in 20,000 years!
