THINGS CHANGE AND SO DO PEOPLE.


I go by Idaman.

I like to travel, read, write, dance and pretend. At the moment I am suffering an insufferable phase of self-aggrandizement, premature maturity and lack of wit. If you think you can help me out of this funk, write me at idaman.z@gmail.com

You could pass as a thug
she said
Except that your slugs
are hugs
that barely even pretend
platonicity

That word is not real
I said
But you are right
In my hopesights
you are the mark
of maybes and mights
I delight
in the jasmine and cigarettes
that brand your hair

I have never dreamt of breasts
she said
but now my nightscape
is possessed by wanton wonted shapes
with crevices agape
I rouse in arousal
rattled by rapture and rage
I blame you

I am sorry
I said
Those shapes
they escape
my prison of your shrine
The curious crevices
were never meant to creep across the line
between your passions and mine

But they did
she said

Yes they did
I said

Night passed into dawn
and nothing else was said
