Victory (and other illusions)

By BetaWolfinVA

Some times "victory"
has a salty aftertaste
(or so I am told)...
a warm dampness on ones hand
(experienced reverently).
.
Oh, would that I could
travel to her house and his
do things never done
and things i've missed long since
adam and eve and a third
.
now chained by laws and
Mores and a young ones care
I can only cry
dream a three part family
resolution and regret
.
why is the two part
family still de rigeur
with man and woman
And Why not two men and she?
Heck three incomes needed it seems
.
but I knew trading
my dream of happiness for
little one in arms
was part of the deal, neither
state recognizes my dream
.
but I still dream of 
poster with a standing man
A standing woman
and a kneeling man using
His head and hands as fig leaves

    Desiring a future that proper society sees as improper. A story told a thousand times, and only time can ever change. Doesn't make it suck any less in the mean time...Nicely penned.

    Exactly. It only took since like ancient times to abolish antiquated belief systems, no big deal.
