Poetry Contest

Who can bring out the true character of their poem through audio poetry?
I really enjoy making and listening to audio poetry. I don't think I've ever seen an audio competition while I have been here, so I thought I would make one.

Rules

1. Recite a poem of your own, to give us a real insight into how it should be read using either youtube, Vocaroo.com, or some other form of audio recording. Post a link to the thread.

2. Poem can be new or old.

3. Maximum of 3 entries each.

4. Collabs are allowed but both voices should be present.

5. You have 2 weeks.

Good luck!

~Often~

 
 
I imagine
 
 
~Often~
 
 
Skin upon skin feeling
 
 
 
That intimate touch from breath to fingers
the warmth of your closeness as I tremble
careful not to break me with a rushed hand
a slow gentle exploration of my hidden depths
 
 
 
I feel
 
 
~Often~
 
 
The weight of your body
 
 
 
Connecting to each of my open invitations
that I give to you with longing emerald eyes
as our lips crush together searching for more
you touch my mind with the very life of you
 
 
 
 
I explore
 
 
~Often~
 
 
In knowing movements
 
 
 
My most inner realms craving to feed my hunger
that pulls at the door of my soul and stirs the silence
you enter me in visions on fire that set me alight
I leave my body crashing into the delights we create
 
 
 
I reach you
 
 
~Often~
 
 
As my body explodes
 
 
 
 
In orgasmic waves that vibrate through the earth
along invisible lines that lead to your very core
and on the breeze fresh aromas catch your senses
life pulses through your being as I hold you there
 
 
 
And
 
 
You imagine
 
You feel
 
You explore
 
You reach me
 
 
 
~Often~

much ado about nothin' 'cept sex, drugs and violence - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36-e0-JMirk

It was never about us, it was about little boys  
with grown-up toys trying to be men  
he was a harmless old drunk  
probably sniffed too much petrol in his time  
always had a hello and smile for the girls

And those boys…
they were just dogs pissing on their territory
and they treated us no better  
than nineteenth century whores
there for a quick knee-trembler or  sneaky blow- job  
under a blanket while getting high on the couch  

I lit a cigarette and watched  
semi-disgusted from the kitchen  
the drug-fuelled macho show of two young guys
beating up an old man  

the other girls hid whimpering under a table  
like they’d never seen a punch-on before  
but I figured - better him than us  
those boys would get me drunk  
to fuck me up later, like they did all of us  
that came calling ‘round for a fix and a fuck  

I don’t remember the old guy’s face  
of what he looked like when they were done with him  
But I do remember telling those bitches
to “shut the fuck up”  
as I cranked up Linkin Park on the radio
eyes half on the beating  
wondering what all the fucking fuss was about  
it’s not like they were beating us

I predict the winner will be female. Just a crazy-wild stab in the dark.
