A FEW COUPLETS (2)
It is safe to flirt with frivolity
It is dangerous when frivolity flirts with you.
The road ahead travels forward to the future
The road behind travels backward to the past.
He dug his nails into the dough.
He always cooks from scratch.
They never sang nor spoke nor met
yet in a dream she cradled him.
The hour came when all fulfilled
his anger waned without design.
