Taiwan

(By Roger Mortis, 225/105)
She could have been from Taiwan
for all intents and purposes
When One was so inept
to establish the lines of communication
with her...
On her part, she left all the lines open
more then few nudges,
subtle and graceful
With open heart and open eyes
Didn`t matter though
all of them signals loud and clear
remained mysterious for One too daft to notice
as if she was from Taiwan...

An Enigma deciphering machine
could have come in handy
to decode all them messages
broadcasting along the open lines
of her graceful femininity
But even if One had such a device
One cannot help to ponder
that he would have still missed the gentle nudges
coming straight from her heart
as if she was from Taiwan...

Since she grew weary
of keeping the lines open
in expectation of One`s light bulb
finally to flesh up
Mild shadow of disappointment
crossed her sweet face
And she wondered...
had she miscommunicated something
had she failed to sent the proper message
As if she was from Taiwan?

She wasnt` from Taiwan
but she might as well could have been
For the One that broke the lines of communication
being rather emotionally color blind
Or maybe just having a fit of cowardice
To fathom that, Yes
all of that effort was meant for him
Instead of looking behind his shoulder
expecting a different receiver

To cut the story short
It was One that could have been from Taiwan
Better yet Inner Mongolia,
Soviet Russia,
Or Deutsche Demokratische Republik,
just plainly too daft
to perceive the obvious
and indulge in the happiness
that eluded him for quite some time
just as if he was

From bloody Taiwan...
