(Another dream, eh, nightmare I tried to finish.) when death came to call she was wearing a mini-skirt ultra short mini skirt not the cruel, cold and hateful Grim Reaper she wore a plunging neckline sweater she leaned forward her breasts waved at me she held out her hand Come, she said, our wildest fantasies I will fulfill I backed up a few steps she followed me removing her sweater caressed her breasts and smiled at me Come stud, show me what you’ve got this wasn’t happening I back-peddled she was so very, very sexy everything about her was pleasing to the eye . . . except . . . the smell she smelled of millions of decayed bodies I sensed that I would have to touch and enfold her before her luscious body would transform into what it really was the Grim Reaper I ran with the odious Reaper fast on my heels and gaining I could feel him reaching out for me I woke up ©May 30, 2015 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

"when death came to call she was wearing a mini-skirt" ~Killin' me right-off with this Jerry! fits of giggle, perfect open  In all seriousness, I read much metaphoric/ dream explanation here... Hawt dream chick raises warning bells, Death entangles lust/love/desire in a caricature of something lovely and desirable or none would fall to the Reaper, especially in dream. (jus' my take, buzz the dinger if I am way off )Deep write, good luck with your ponder! ~T "..But a tyrant spell has bound me, And I cannot, cannot go.." ~Emily Bronte 'The Night is Darkening Around Me' |

quote: Nope, you are right on with your take, Tanya. It is perfect as a matter of fact. Eh . . . I have to say, it was a wild dream what I remembered of it. It made me sit up in a full sweat. Whew! ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

A death I most certainly recognize... as well as the reek of decayed bodies. Not sure I was dreaming though. Glad you woke up, bud. Michael |

I had a feeling even as I was writing this poem that you would relate to it. Appreciate your thoughts on it . . . ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |
