I can bear the scent of loss static gray and stale air as it clings to gaily painted swatches crying, begging in grieve of green and supple those veils of sheilded splendor and magnanamous gratitude Facing the desolate, it is all too cliche pain and suffering sadness and grief conjoined twins aching for separation fearing solitude as cracked glass screeches, crumbles inhibits the hug of motion the lilting lyricism seeps and balms cooling and aqua I am classically renouncing destiny but he courts unrelentless and oily slick bitter fight and spite is much more comforting than abject subjugation Note* Warming up the muse here, it's been out of use for a while. |

And Im with Sen..you call this warming up? My moody moth muse just ran out the door green with poetic envy.  So very good to read your words again poetess Nicole. (check your email when you get a min) "How could I stand here with you and not be moved by you." |

lol - please! As if I don't just squirm in a very unnatractive poetic envy reading all of you! Thank you Brian, unfortunately it's taking me quite a bit to warm up and it'll be long between poems, but hopefully not too long. Sereney Missy - Big hugs you, I've missed you! Love ya back! JM, thanks again for all your help, hon. I'm the one that needs to be envious of YOUR poetry!  Thanks Andy, and from what I've read of you, you don't need any warming up! You're great as it is! Hugs all! |

I especially like your last few lines. It's so true, isn't it? Better to turn against something out of spite than to submit to it and let yourself be overtaken. This is an interesting poem of loss, and the human response to loss... I'm glad I got the chance to read it. Welcome home, Nicole. Parasite Faith is a fine invention |

*G* LP, you took the words right of my mouth, although I could never say it as wonderful as you do. Nicole, I really missed reading your work. You're one of those rare poets who force me to run for my dictionary. Your muse may not be around all the time, when it's there you always manage to write awesome poetry.Welcome back to the blue pages m'lady. |

An interesting poem with a good amount of ironic imagery. I liked it a lot and will certainly study it a little further. 2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2 |
