Should I, Or Should I Not? (That's The Question) Poem by David Whalen

Curious mixture
of satin and steel
A mysterious melange
of Mylar and lace

A baffling brew
Of real and unreal
That is the mystery
I see in your face

Satin and steel
Real and unreal
Known and unknown
Is what I do…and don't feel

When you hold me…
In your arms of ice
Peer deep into cold…
Porcelain eyes

Perchance to choose
Your childish charms
Give myself up to lose
My senses in your arms

You're Winter, Summer
Dark place…open space
That is the mystery that
…I see in your face…

One moment frigid cold
The next with passion hot
So should I …
or should I not?
