Big fat brain,
Tall lanky body.
My beanpole man,
Gentle smile from above.
Oceanic eyes,
Ever-changing colors.
Pockets for fingers,
Dimple holes to fill.
Cuddling like cats,
Glowing screens illuminate.
Sleeping on his heart,
Wisdom finally rests.

Nuance (poem)
PoetryBlack and white thinking,
Absolute terms.
One or the other,
Binary boxes.
But life lives in the middle,
That messy in-between.
Churning, dynamic chaos,
Where beautiful pockets hide.
