Single’s Surfeit......Marry Nay Merry! Poem by saadat tahir
Single’s Surfeit......Marry Nay Merry!
Parishes seek thee done.
Snatch thinner life’s fun.
Wife be cherished moor?
Or tribal tracking spoor!
Deadens that the loin.
Withers sprightly coin.
Same, seeks for the smile.
That to second loathed vile.
Touted verdant of the Nile.
To nerves cantankerous bile.
Tongue resplendent knife.
Hid scared within her fief?
Parched to life form thrive.
Angst of word poking vive.
Sails cherish shifting wind.
Ripen shan’t I within a rind.
I wish no wilt upon me fall.
Upon wishes beck and call.
Restless wayward throb.
Enjoy creak an turning knob.

Certainly a dilemma - freedom, or commitment? One needs to weigh the pros and cons, which you are doing (if I read this correctly) in this poem. Definitely food for thought (for all singles) ! Linda :)
