 “S”

By Michael Curley

 

 

Sitting silently, sulkily, sipping Starbucks special

Sometimes surprisingly subtle sensations surface slowly

Softly, simply, sensuous, so sensationally super, so stunningly . .  STOP!

Show some sense.

Show some sobriety.

 

So sad, so much satisfaction suppressed

So sane, so stable, so set, so strict.

Stymied, straight-laced, scuppered, safe

Socially safe, sit straight!

 

Salarymen singing songs, sake-soaked, suit-stained

Secure, so senselessly, stupidly secure

Sanity suspended
