A poetic comment to a friend's MySpace
Ah! The castles, mighty rivers And deep seas in our child eyes. In our cynical age lives a child beneath Who must admit they still see. Copyright © 2007 by C. P. Klapper Sign in to see full entry.

Condensation
Condensation Encased in the fog With which the world surrounds The cool comfort of my car I step out and am blinded By its mist on my glasses. I am an astronaut of cool and dry In this Venutian atmosphere Which shows me the door To my capsule and the world Of the other months which sent me. It is... Sign in to see full entry.

A comment that really deserves to be an entry here
A blogger complained about the word "girlfriend", as to be without real feeling or passion. I would concur and added that it is... Much like the way I feel about "relationship" A word that I find more suitable for abstract algebra and category theory than for romance. Time was, "beau" and "belle"... Sign in to see full entry.

Lunch Partner
Lunch Partner Whenever I head out for lunch I go with the unlikely hope Of an inadvertent rendezvous Where you, my love, come passing by And “Oh” and “Hi, Won't you have a seat? Here's a slice of pizza pie. A funny thought I had the other day. I put it in a poem – no, not an ode Which might... Sign in to see full entry.

I poem I wrote shortly after 9-11
Shortly after 9-11, a very large flock of small birds came to roost on the old ash tree I then had in my backyard.

Closing Hours
Closing Hours So much on the menu here. The restaurant is closing soon. O, must I be rushing my meal, My tongue not savor any bite? But we are but visitors who came To buy one thing from just one store Who thought that it was a sure thing -- If so, the train fare was well spent -- But now, for the... Sign in to see full entry.

Making Love
Making Love I want to caress you gently in the night, kissing your loveliness until morn. Your every lust is my delight. Your every tear leaves me forlorn. Your secret worries are worse by far. Their mystery leaves me distraught. Please tell me, darling, what they are, your battles which I would... Sign in to see full entry.

Wish for Genie Girl
Wish for a Genie Girl My wish is to make love to you Through each day and night Where, in my dreams, our dance entwines our bodies in light Softly glowing as the moon Then pulsing as twin stars might, I shoot within your firmament, Waking with my dream in sight.
