Threatened Romeo, Posturing His Nonsense Poem by Mark Heathcote

Threatened Romeo, Posturing His Nonsense



My darling, furthermore, after today,
I shall walk tall in sunnier climbs,
Flower not just on roadside verges
But on Pyrenees Mountain tops still azure
I shall forget eyes the colour of blue chicory;
Once more here alone, begin a new story.

My darling, furthermore, after today,
Our last day on earth publicly together
I shall carry with me a sprig of chicory,
It will help me move forward and forget you.
It will open locked doors into unseen worlds
Once there will no longer dwell in your shadow.

My darling, furthermore, after today,
I shall lose track of all time, and even you,
You will no longer exist after today,
But until then, until midnight, I'm entirely all yours.
If you would but bend just a little, left or right
Leave a little wiggle room for some doubt tonight.
