He called my lips "delicious"
and never knew my name.
He took the twinings of my hair
down and moaned into my "mane".

she hurt me

and he kissed me hard
but I felt not one damned thing:
no hunger pounding native drums
in the tingle twizzled sing

she hurt me

and I was not her.
He asked if I knew everything.


I came here to forget

as I

drank too much of drink...

I'm teetertottering between the lines "and I was not her" and "I came here to forget"... wondering which (or if both) will be my sardonic toast as my hand raises drink tonight...

Definitely floored, here... with unrestrained admiration (and some serious word envy *G*)

To all m'ladies, and the gentleman WT who is keeping excellent company with them, I thank you.

And Ruth? Hmm...I think there's a reason there's a teeter totter there.

Nod. The poet stumbled there.

As always, I'm open for critique/advice.

thank you all for your time, and if you have any ideas on how to make this work for me, I'd appreciate it.

Me and brevity...heh.

sigh

I dunno.

Very deep poem K.

Wow. There is so much going on here for so brief a poem. Brilliance.

'Twasn't a poet stumble, m'dear, not at all... I don't think you know how to do those... or if you do, you maintain such grace I never see the glitch. *S*

Those lines just both "got" me... fairly powerfully... in different ways. *S*
