Highrise Treats

Cold winter's night.
What dances behind
those dim lit windows?

Flesh colored bodies,
entwined,unaware,
of clear glass reflections


Every shadow a life,
dancing against the wall,
living fantasies
without a worry,
of who has
binoculars.

A very appropriate and clever title for this simple yet image packed work.

A perfect little gem of poetic order describing the night moves of sensuality: let me be the peeping tom — please, please!

I liked this. The first two verses are ( what I might concider )haiku. But, what do I know. I could picture the peeping Tom with his binoculars spying on the neighbors. Good poem, TS

thank you, TS-it is so true

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
