Rutapottamus D G Williford
Giggling, flirting, hour calls on the phone.
Waiting, watching, wondering
Jogs in the park, walking the dogs
Elbows bumping over Chardonnays
Firelit starry nights, sparkling eyes
Connections and promises
Circles of gold, tinkling of glasses
Promises
What if after the promise comes
Blackness?
What if after the magic comes
Madness?
What if what we thought was love
is a Rutapottamus?
There is no such thing as a Rutapottamus...
Is there such a thing as eternal love?
You tell me if you ever saw a Rutapottamus
crossing the road on a summer's day...
You tell me if you ever saw a Rutapottamus
buying tickets to Bocelli...
You tell me if you ever stood behind a Rutapottamus at the ATM...
You tell me about everlasting love
