The Beat A permeating thump, they jumped The thin the svelte and those of plump They called to me to join the frolic And I did, with a dance of colic. I smiled to cover pain and rage These sinews of another age And I in throbbing played at young That I in heart would be among They riptide with a pride of power The flourish of a newborn flower Held the stage in rare engage A product of a brand new age And here I thought in poets rhyme Comparing to another time The wonderings of a long lost beach Leached away by siphons bleach. But I have built a golden lair And more and more you’ll find me there. |

I smiled to cover pain and rage These sinews of another age And I in throbbing played at young That I in heart would be among ==================================== And here I thought in poets rhyme Comparing to another time The wonderings of a long lost beach Leached away by siphons bleach. ===================================== *smiling at you* and your "dance of colic" and this will be the coolest line I'll read today... "Leached away by siphons bleach." look at the inner rhymes mixed with clever metaphors... 3 of them in that one very impressive line alone....day after day you consistantly do this so well...you may feel like ya got old bones..but that mind of yours is keeping perfect time me Stinkylove. This write is poetic proof!! Skip the Jazzercize ... save your energy for Poetic Calestetics  ( and some lip lock and winkiewinkies) *L*   |
