Sleeping with Laura
and not making love
Lost in her aura
and thoughts from above
Sleeping with Laura
all vanity chaste
A feeling impregnates
—the blame heaven laced
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
Generation Lost
Married to introspection,
we left for Paris
And with fools and dilettantes
got carried away
Living on melancholy,
our quarter was poor
The Seine’s romance but fiction
—our fantasies played
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)

Kurt,
A super write!
I particularly liked...
“Lost in her aura
and thoughts from above”
Most enjoyed!
~Laura~
Thanks, I stay 'lost' in that most of the time.

Kurt,
I guess going to Paris did not enrich as we thought it would.
Ç’es la vie mon ami!
~Laura~
I think looking back, Hemingway, Pound, Fitzgerald
and maybe even Gertrude Stein would agree.
