BEAUTIFUL I don't want to be beautiful (right now) I want to reach into passion's throat Aztec Determination Sucking hearts' Twisted Soul Wringing wet flames over bitter Champagne cocktails served up hot In Cristal Darque (I don't want to be) Beautiful I want you to feel the rim Glass rubbing raw pink fingers RED |

Hi Michael...Thank you for the welcome. I am traditionally, I suppose, a beat poet (so most of my stuff goes into Adult) just cause I tend to Irreverence. Darque is not my usual genre, but I spun this off as a reply, seemed to fit here (and I was pretty pleased with it) *S* SO I thank you twice...TA ~haze |

LR...Your praise fondles me to fascination...Thank you. Bojopy...thank you twice...as I told Michel, Darque is not my usual drink But I will try. I have also been known to be pretty poignant with the old slice-n-dice. I will be sure to keep it wrapped...Thanks again Til Again...~haze |

haze why dont you introduce yourself to the dark passions in a post by the chainedangel "Family in dark passions". It was an idea I wish was thought of before and I think we all enjoy. And again welcome!!! "Write down what you say if what you say is not written down" (Bojopy) |

The dark can be a wonderful relief, to pour out angers or fears etc. Welcome Haze, and I hope you decide to stay for a while, or visit regularly Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely. ~Isis~ (Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Liked the right now feelings and getting it down. Most of my stuff is a bit out there and that's just the way I like it. Looking forward to more from you. There must be some kinda way out of here... say the joker to the thief There's to much confusion, I can't get no relief - Hendrix |

jmlee-thank you. The poem is not about visual perception. Its alleghory. What I am really saying is "I don't want to write words that please you-I want you to feel the depth & soul like glass shards in prissy feet-I want you to feel the edges/reality without romance.) Do any of us ever (really) understand exactly what the poet was thinking? Unless its all tangible imagery, we can't. As far as I am concerned-If I made you feel (anything) Even anger-I have done well. Thank you for the read. Til Again...~haze |

Great point haze!!! The reader and the poet don't always have the same thoughts on a piece. Just like in music many of the lyrics are for themselves. We just try and relate to it in our own way!! "Write down what you say if what you say is not written down" (Bojopy) |
