The Sphinx
She heard my trumpet
She heard my fiddle
She heard me pound
Piano keys to solve
Her riddle--
I beat my drum--
Pa Rum Pa Pum Pum
And how kind of Her
To declare my noise
A valiant effort...
And request more
--of that...
Affect and Effect
Will never be the same--
She watched me sculpt
She watched me widdle
She watched me feng shui
My bedroom to solve
Her riddle--
And all the while,
She heard me,
She watched me,
She assuaged me--
She never moved--
She held the ground--
She guarded the Temple--
Her nose is not chipped
Her nose is not brown
She does not possess
The lost and found--
A gray area conclusion
Will not suffice--
Her omniscient riddle
Summons at least thrice--
Its not luck--
Its not fate--
Its not a dream
You'd want to date--
I couldn't blame Her
For the gnarly gash
Being--
A stubborn heel--
To swim the stream
To dance the tango
With talent enough
To act and pogo
I see The Sphinx-- and
The Sphinx sees Me
To answer your riddle
My dear, dear, friend--
Its empathy for the WIND!
XOXO. JML
