Fermented juices and toxic wine |

Fermented juices and toxic wine Kindled questions scourge my night, Lighting areas I would not light. Fermenting juices of my brain. With toxic wines of potent strain. And in the glasses medleys warm, Lit with silver of ghostly form. Erotica in as bold a toast, As any I could boast or host. I know not why these demons lie. It's not my wakeful nature, not I. But desires seem to crash in waves And make my mind go into raves. What curse is this that steals my peace? What answer there, could give release? I'd gladly lay my amour down, Even if I would a clown. So in dilemma, here I lie And wrestle with my devils Why? |

Another great poem from Seymour! It's like routine for you. You never ceases to amaze me. I hope I don't offend anybody but you are the best poet on this board. Your imagery and the way you use and compose your words is unlike any other I've seen on this board. In fact your syle kind of reminds me of Robert Frost. Once again, great poem and I hope you keep it up! |

Sy, another beauty - slightly confounding on first read, but I suspect you wouldn't have it any other way - so I'm off to read it again! K |

Great poem as usual Sy. What kind of wine did you say that was? The nightly devil's brew, made just for you. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Pepper, Sigh right back, Thank you. *L* Mike, Big thanks. Nate, You haven't read Balladeer,Nan,Michael or poetdeVine. The only thing Of Frost about me is my nose. But a big thanks to you. Severn, What ever is between the lines I know you will find. *L* Matrie, It's private stock. *L* Balladeer, You are a master of quips and the only thing of Frost about me, as I said bebore is my nose, sometimes. |

So open up and find release! The drink you choose won't bring you peace. Suspecting with your armor down, Not one would find you act a clown. |

Quite a poem, Seymour ... What a fine kettle of fish that would be ... Seymour snockered on a little Chablis` Seymour the ~Frosty~ poet had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows! After a bottle of good Red Wine ... dancing on the rooftop would be fine. Seymour the ~Frosty~ poet, Passion's friends all agree. He's just the sort to 'pop a cork' ... and with friends of his to consort ! The questions of the devils sot ... is not why ... but WHY NOT ? ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Given the choice 'Tween words or wine I'll chose your words They are so fine And drunken on Your poetry Stronger than wine I'd rather be The bite is milder And in the 'morn I won't be wishing I was never born Seymore, I can get drunk on your words and not have to nurse a hangover in the morning |
