Music leaps wildly 'round Impassioned dancers breathe the sound Of enchanted melody's seductive plea Tempting tainted debauchery Twisted bodies swirling parade Hide their faces in masquerade Flowing robes like glittered breeze With heaving bosoms glistened tease Eyes that beckon behind a mask With distorted smiles and painted laughs Merryment disguising sin Of countless embraces of lustful whim Perfumed advances, eleborate displays Of anonymous partakers in heated charade. |

WOW princess, a wonderfully written piece and a scene I have witnessed my times throughout my life as a student. Excellent images. "A frog, it cannot comprehend the sea Nor me happiness" Paul Draper-Mansun |

Brian: i must say that im always pleased at the time you take to read and respond to my work. i do read your poems but often find that they are beyond my comprehension, therefore i fail to respond to them. i do hold you in high esteem and would appreciate learning more about your poetry (when and if you get the time)...Thanks! |
