tenderize.
here's
this tiny
fragile
creature
timid
shy,
no hands
could reach her
self doubt
slithers
snakes through
her brain
driving deep
those
throes
of her
truest pain
wrapped in
thine own arms
fortune settled
she remains
biting
clawing
ripping
chewing
once again
her
own doing
repetition loves
her constant force
of habit
picking at her seems
one thread
she'll grab it
insanity requires
a blind eye
to repeating
over and over
just the same
a tender soul
is bleeding
ever peculiar
she will not
be hidden
within the
dark
stars shine bright
she'll always
glisten
the sky lightens—
streak'd
of
cornflower blue
the sun
peeks out
the day....
...starts anew.

Re. tenderize.
Dear Lady Blue, to me this reads like a diary entry of a truly tortured soul. I can almost physically feel, "Driving deep the throes of her truest pain"
This description of dawn is absolutely beautiful, "the sky lightens—
streak'd
of
cornflower blue"
Bravissima Goddess BB❣❣

Re: Re. tenderize.
You're so very insightful BB... I usually don't write outside of DU but instead I write here and then I'll copy to word once I'm done writing to keep a personal copy, too... this time I quickly wrote this while working, on my note taking app. I am not in love with it but I am having a hard time focusing and creating and this is what came out. So, I am extremely appreciative of your thoughtful comments, my dear....and I thank you for taking the time and effort you so beautifully do.
Much love and respect,
🌹🐻💋🌹

My mind is in the gutter, because I wish you would tenderize, LOL. Love and lust are in the air right now between us. Keep on writing.

Ty for reading, Francisco... no gutter here, (not this morning anyway.. lol) only my insecurities, mental health issues and a small amount of hope on a horizon out there. I appreciate your readership

Sweetheart this is so sad.

Sending all my vibes across the pond

I loved your poem, deep and fantastically written, what I loved the most about it was its presentation. I love the free fall
experience of your word expression in visual form. Short sentences seem to keep the reader ready to read the next,
line, instead of a new sentence and line, as I'm typing out now, which might bore and overwhelm, and drive away an audience.
Well, I am new to this style,
and I will be experimenting with it,
because I love it. and because I do not know the name of this style,
I will call it '
'FREEFALL STYLE'
unless you want to tell me what it actually is........
I'm listening.......
No?
That's cool...
I'll wait...I'll wait....
Until then

Hi Archie :)
I really appreciate your time and the list add for this little write of mine....I myself, wasn't thrilled with it (I am such a harsh self critic) but like you, I enjoyed the formatting as well...
I don't know what to call it either, I just cut the lines where I felt the words needed the most punch and where I knew they needed highlighting, especially when choosing the text format of "center" alignment .. it makes more of an impact (center alignment, in this format) - I'm my mind's eye, anyway. I also shortened the lines to look more aesthetically pleasing to me too, when read this way, which I find helps with the flow engagement. (like you alluded to) Hopefully I explained that in a way that's understandable, as I can certainly drone on... ;)
Once again, I'm thankful for your visit 🙏
Much love,
🌹

this spill found my eyes wet and leaking......
damn
i love how You use Homonyms and both meanings of the word apply!
Spills like this from You often cause me to believe all "subs" like us feel this tortured way everyday.....
i know i do, but because my 1st (& only true) Domme died
i can't image what it must be like when one's Dom / Domme is still living.

There was something to this format that made feel it sympathetic and relatable.
As always Blue you have a knack for conveying these emotions so well.
Great work.
