Her Essence~
There’s this Blank verse rush, this fix from poetry
that lingers Senryu euphoria under my breath,
Yet, I’ve never envisioned my prose as a high.
It’s never quenched my Terza Rima thirst,
or artificially fulfilled me from Pastoral purging.
I’ve never made love to her,
never felt her Haikus skin against mine.
Limerick limbs spread wide,
pausing for Sonnets-ink to artistically
bleed onto lineless sheets of my heart.
She’s never entertained me that way.
Colloquial kiss of life giving only
to dilute my Rondeau raging emotions,
exploited Romanticism as a Tanka stimulus,
and heartbreak as an actress....
with no headliner or sold out Epic shows,
to place my pen’s Shakespearean story-
center-stage, with a Acrostic mic, to elevate her voice.
She’s never had a Free verse allotment
that offers an alignment parallel with my Villanelle moods.
Her thoughts flowed from a Visual quill of
ungovernable spill, without my aid because,
I never willed her.
But…
when the Ghazal lyrics finally come
she cuts deeply, makes me feel Burlesque-
through her oral Concrete heritage.
Her ascendants caress the strands of
muted linguistics and lure my roar,
My Cantos cry….
every emotion known, hemorrhaged on
scented parchment, inflamed by her merciless pleas....
to be understood.
And I….
I just can’t help but love her Carpe diem force.
She has never forced me poetically
rather, her force, constantly....
saves me.

......divinely written. The powers of "her" (metaphorically) poetic flow, what a love. The thankfulness of her saving grace. A very intrinsic poem from one of favorite writers and favorite people.

aww.....thanks Archie, sweet comment! :) Poetry does have a redeeming quality in regards to it's power. She's saved me countless times by penning, instead of reacting emotionally. Happy you're keeping her.....

May the force be with you... though if Metachlorians had anything to do with creating poetry, Yoda would not have been the only Jedi-poet...
No, the force of poetry come from a mysterious muse that flows through human hearts and saturates our minds with a rhythm we transmit with a beat that is a language unto itself. You make love to your muse with every poem you create and the muse in you is addicted to your verse! So am I...

lol.... an entertaining intro JJ. I'm clueless to Star Wars, never been a fan. I know, I know....go head and boo me. lol... I do get the 'force' analogy though. Quite complimentary to your wonderful perception of this ink.
"You make love to your muse with every poem you create and the muse in you is addicted to your verse! So am I..." <--- Wow! Love it! ;) Thank you sweety for the pen-love, and for taking her home.

Re: Re. Her Essence~
hey sexy Savaja, I'm always held captivate by your comment(s). I was rather fond of the first pic myself, but there was too much going on in it and it took away from the quote, not to mention I needed 'her' to be seen more, her fullness, the force of seduction she brings. This was my initial pic but I opted for the one you liked. Thank you hun for always blessing my ink with your poetic intellect. :)
Edit: Thank you for taking her home with you... xoxo

if one doesn't feel or carry the very essence of this in their bones, they need to lay down their pen & make room for folks like you... who scrape together life, love, heartbreak... who breathe to exhale in metaphor
yuuuuup, rainy lady, you've written this so damn well.
i'ma have to write an eviction notice on my reading list to make room for this keeper

.....dancedoll, I've already mentioned earlier how poets like you and several others have been the inspiration behind me constantly critiquing my craft, in a way that allows me to design my ink in the likeness of so many I respect, grooming me into a better poet. You're definitely at the top of my inspiration list. :) Thank you for the amazing comment, and for babysitting her. xoxo

love the sultry style its conveyed in, infatuated with the internal rhyme to the poet's beau, "Her ascendants caress the strands of

hey there Knot! :) Thank you sweety for stopping by and tackling her essence. I do understand the complicacy of her. I'm actually kinda' proud that she provoked thought in you. :) I was trying to infuse various forms of poetry into being a female entity that possess the power to invoke the voice of my inner thoughts. :) Hope I didn't confuse you even more with my explanation. lol....Thanks hun, appreciate your kind words.....

This has richness and elegance Rain. It celebrates the inspiration of your muse but contains so much more.
"I just can’t help but love her Carpe diem force.
She has never forced me poetically
rather, her force, constantly....
saves me."
This is a thrill to read and far from being forced. It flies. Beautiful work!

I bow to you....You sweet Rain, are a wonder to behold...I often think of a scene in my mind of a little brick room filled with poets & writers who one by one would stand and say one of their poems,,,,you are The sensual one....without even a word written in a sexual way the depth and feel of your work just strikes me like the soft paw of a lioness...I truly love your work.
