Naive

olivergeorgebutcher

Monogamous mentality 
Happiness surrounding me
Passion, blood flowing naturally
No need to enhance my dopamine.

Introduce polygamy 
The damage I succumbed to thee 
Capricious abuse emotionally
Start inciting jealousy
Now you’re touching physically
We’ve lost our affinity.

    BRAIN HERE ~ Hi Oliver welcome to MPS ~ it is a proactive site and operates by reading & commenting on each others poems ! I like the rhyme & rhythm in your first Poem & the Subject ~ Monogamy vs Polygamy. I studied HYROGLYPHICS @ Liverpool University so was able to transliterate it ~ OK ! I presume you intended to post it in HYROGLYPHICS !
    Ive never been married but in April I am entering into a MONOGAMOUS relationship with my Fiancee Angela ~ with whom I share this site.
    As V 1. suggests I am sure we will be happy - passionate and will have no need for DOPAMINE supplement.
    Once Im Happily MONOGAMOUS ~ I guess I could consider POLYGAMY ! I like my future MAMA - IN - LAW but the thought of having ~ two or three ~ in addition to the other NEGATIVES you mention fills me with horror ! Thanks for sharing !

    Blessings and Peace to You & Yours
    Shalom BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🤍💙🤍🧡
    Please check our site ~ Thanks A & B !
    Love the visual very oblique !

      Thank you Brian and Angela for the thought of the input and feedback on everything. My style is extremely simple and solely based on rhythm but I’m glad you liked it! It’s much appreciated! Sorry I made you go through the effort of transliterating my poem...definitely not intentional😅 I’ve edited it into a standard font however now! All the best - Olly 🤍

      I guess if one has a very high opinion of ones self then polygamy could be easy for you but if a mere mortal with all the usual hang-ups it's possibly the road to jealousy and violence.

      Enjoyed reading your well presented work. Please comment on the posting of others on here.

      Polygamy has never been within me, trust in each other must be sacrosanct.
