Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri
"The Unrequited Requisition..(To You, because you thought you knew me.)"
I can understand We thought my life had a plan And you told me I was through with love. Then you asked if, on the basis of my horoscope, I had ever had a meaningful relationship And I said I had been disappointed in love. Then you explained that never again would I fall in love again. What sport we make of this word "love" Would you ever know me? Do you think that just Because you've read my poetry You can 'read me like a book'? You will never know me Because I have three dimensions- The same as I will never know you A horoscope cannot prescribe happiness Or lonliness And nobody in the world Knows wht the other is thinking.
