Rhapsody in Jealousy

by Jackie Williams

To: Flawed Imaginations Passions racing from the pit of my being, Subtle twinges...aching for release, Passionate jolts without a source or cause Welling up inside...trampling internal laws. Seeking redemption for personal inadequacies To the best of my knowledge...what I feel is jealousy. Consciously seeking to spy on another To stay put or prowl...choices...druthers? Imagined passions in whispers and stares Stay put, stay put, don’t look and don’t dare. The next move you make could result in a felony Summing up my world…a rhapsody in jealousy. Passions racing from the pit of my being Subtle twinges...aching for release, Passionate jolts without a source or cause Welling up inside...trampling internal laws. Seeking redemption for personal inadequacies To the best of my knowledge...what I feel is jealousy. Imagination fuels the fire…secreting enzymes Anger wells up inside for no apparent reason, Sensory output, short-circuited, distorting space and time Low self-esteem...no pride...the jealous season. The center of being longs for relief Thoughts and feelings violently entwine. Caught in a web…soul stolen by a thief A passion play of envy…loss of the mind, Images racing...heart beat pacing Sneaking up the back way…impatiently casing, Committing what amounts to an internal felony. A crime against my essence.....It's crazy jealousy!
