Resistance is Futile- Duane Francis
by Duane Francis ~ September 10th, 2008I can’t help but tingle when our eyes connect,
And holding your hand amplifies the effect.
Roses lean to you, just to catch your scent,
I go weak in the knees so I pray for strength.
And my mind tells me “Resistance is futile”
Intoxicated by sweeter than wine, kisses
Now I really know, what true bliss is.
Hoping for love eternal, love unconditional,
A Love so potent it could almost be illegal
And my mind tells me “Resistance is futile”
Now I find myself gushing over you,
Blabbering about you just being you.
I must admit you are my Perfect One,
You have even the most beautiful imperfections.
And my mind tells me “resistance is futile”
At last a blog entry! YAY! Duane! This love poem was written sometime back and I realized i had not posted it on this blog. So for those who have not seen it before. Read and enjoy. Go ahead and relive a time when you had or met someone who had you believing that resistance was indeed a useless operation then.
I know I had one of those when I wrote this poem. I have performed this piece only once and the crowd reaction was awesome. It was one of those spoken word performances that reminded me exactly why I love this stuff so much.
Anyway I have started writing again and the poetry is becoming more fun for me. Look out for more poetry especially podcasts. Afterall I am a spoken word artiste. I have to mention my friend Kathleen over at Diary of a Heretic. She has some great stories you might even find a few Jamaican characters there but there is only one way to find out.
