POEMBLOG.VOXPOETICA.COM: Bullish Love

Bullish Love

Ivan Jenson gives us words, but he gives the world paintings too (see his website for more of his work). You remember his last contribution, Man Made. This poem will make you laugh and ponder the concept of divided self.

Bullish Love

By Ivan Jenson

there is a part of me that sits

elderly in a rocking chair

waiting for you

and another part of me that kicks open

the rodeo gates

and bucks

like a bull in the red light

district

So vivid, I'm sure there is a lot of this that takes place. Great job.

What I liked about this poem is that it made me want to write the response... Bearish Love. Oh, I think I will.
