     Tolling a Bell

Nymphomania pirouettes
In shapely salacious shadows
To flare a sigh
And rumble the sky

While passions parasite demons
Machinate a red facade
Fire blood within.
Beneath the skin

Heating punchinello winds
To strike causing fires flare
To bellow.
And mellow.

Bending time upon itself
Tilting the sands of pour to
Incline instead
Of decline.

Setting the mortar of disorder.

Stinky only you could come up with these very cool lines and images .......

"shapely salacious shadows"(now there is the coolest alliteration I'll ever read!!)

"Machinate a red facade"
"Heating punchinello winds"
"Tilting the sands of pour"


your poetry bends time and our minds...
this firey, cryptic conjurs up so many images
very very cool poem Sy-babers(and Randy) *L*

It will arise in perfect light.
For I have loved the stars much too fondly ...
To be fearful of the night."

Wow is right!  This is awesome and powerful writing!

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

This is indeed powerful.   I used to help my husband years ago, store his mortar shells,
lovely job for a woman.  For some reason this made me think of that

My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write.
