A Shattered Dream
(based on a true incident)
The depth of my disappointment
Knew no bounds
Through the long hours of weighting
Feeling all of the sensations of desire
In body and mind .
Even my tongue anticipated
The tactile feeling of contact
Even the taste
At last the moment arrived
The coming together, the coupling
The joining, the union.
And the crashing, crushing,
Disappointment and the destruction
Of all my fantasies
Of all of my hopes
Of all my dreams
The popcorn was cold
And wasn't salted !!
