A Common Man's Sonnet.
A Common Man's Sonnet
I read the rhyming couplets of the poet
By profession, repute branded the Bard
I cannot for my precious life tell you
Why a man so schooled in life, well read
Fraid tell im oman "Gal me want you bad"
From time cock get up crow me mind 'pon you
Darling, possessed, I think 'bout you in dread
'till sun reach zenith then sink in sea cays
From behind high cloud the moon shine 'pen you
Naked, exposed for me to peep and pray
Forgiveness. No. To myself I'll be true
Each night me goads in pain I clutch, foreplay
Mounted, strident. I fucked you in my dreams
What joy! Ecstasy! Gal com live inch dreams
