Flamenco #Frederico Garcia Lorca
Castanets, pulsing blood and coursing
Regina for the veins
Stabs a rhythm
Passion of ivory carved outlines
Deaths arrogance the haughtiness caresses
Cuban heels, hearts stamped crashendo
Puppetiers we danced
To winds that strummed
Plectrum on the strings of fate
Rat-ta-ta long fingers that gesticulate
Bare the beast of inuendo
Flames that lick from our flamenco
That we will kiss in love and hate
Regina for the veins
Stabs a rhythm
Passion of ivory carved outlines
Deaths arrogance the haughtiness caresses
Cuban heels, hearts stamped crashendo
Puppetiers we danced
To winds that strummed
Plectrum on the strings of fate
Rat-ta-ta long fingers that gesticulate
Bare the beast of inuendo
Flames that lick from our flamenco
That we will kiss in love and hate

Thank you for the opportunities to expand and grow and see above ground a world I never knew about At a grand old age 77. I found your comps inspiring and challenging previously to joining DU having no love or reading history of poetry . I tried to write it in an open style but failed . rewards are hard come by. a reading list by yourself is one Regards SLIP

This has a stomping rhythm true to its title, it embodies the famous dance, which I've only seen on tv but it does have a certain love/hate vibe, great tribute to it..
