Blame, Hearts, Poems and Brokenness (Collab' with YumnaKay)

A collaboration with YumnaKay...

White-flames light gray names on the wall of shame, while pain is believed to be the seed of greed that fillets our brains

...Seamlessly... 

Vile release of craving and I scream, the butterfly sting of transparent opiates leave me stinger-less like a male honey bee, fails, money-trees, and right-of-way...

The way crawls of chaos-dust laced with lunar-graves, fight the lay-away sensation of a crow eating your fate, and sashay away...

 Princess of blame.

As an unknown band of a faraway land in the sands of time, caught betwixt the greasy slime of sublime thyme, rang out in brain-dead rhyme, I strive to achieve the hectic highs and lows of a life spent otherwise, but now time flies

 ...No compromise... 

Just a vague realization of recreational hallucination, manipulation coupled with ruffled mixtures of pictures engraved on the inside of my grave, reenactment of Satan's chimes as my mind lulls blindly, in fact dulls the excruciating pain... 

As you, Prince of my demise.

 Still rule my heart faintly...

Faintly or not, I'm not a saint, the hearts in the paint, and a swathe of harm comes from loving a card taint

As a lark starts to sing for me, but no sound abounds, tempting duress

 ...I simmer...

 My nouns are thin and drowning in a sea of crowns, my pain surrounds my frown, but still I round out syllables

Hard-turned gullible, silk worth drivel, I use a felt-tipped stain to melt my syllabus like veal

 Heal the wilting flower, still ripping hours, that powerful sensation of dripping sour dirt, my earth is shattered and lurching to the side of orbit...

 Hope you know it...

Princess of poets.

Oh don't I know it, blame, hearts, poems and brokenness...

 Swimming in deep waters and lapping around murky weed hopelessly, I refuse to admit defeat sordidly 

 Sorta crawling back, while 

...Again and again...

 Thrown into the ocean's heft, what are you besides an empty vessel, wherein a figment of my imagination lies, while a glimmer of hope sparks, making me look up to the skies

I withdraw from this state of non-being to a universe full of calamity, yet my soul searches, still reaches out to you...

Sweet Prince of broken screams.

Only you...

A collaboration with YumnaKay... Hope you enjoy!

broken screams of two poets in conversation...trying to figure it all out...feeling the inadequacies of being a poet and not being able to say it strongly enough...love the stream of consciousness in-rhyme within this piece...and done so well that except for the back and forth of the conversation, feels like one voice..

what a blend.

bravo guys

Thank you for the more than adequate review... Two voices becoming one through storytelling, is a trademark of excellence, imo... Wonderful insight, thanks again, JEC...

Your styles together made for a beautiful balance! SO MANY LINES I'd like to acknowledge but the piece as a whole is amazing so I'll say well done both of you or else I might just be copying and pasting the whole piece! LOL
Great collaboration! Tons of feeling and imagery is laced in this piece...going to re read it a few more times to squeeze out all the goodness!

Wow. Really, I loved the, "crawls of chaos-dust laced with lunar graves" line. That was brilliant. Great job, Silente!

[Great Aunt Astri]

It is good to talk. Especially if one is inspired by the other .... and vice versa. it is surprising at what original and interesting poems result. I enjoyed this collab.

[Chase Dylan]

I agree, GA... Communication is essential when vying for superb inspiration. Thank you...

[Hebe]

The two differnt styles blend wonderfully... full of expression and pathos... I felt like it was a scene from Macbeth ... great job!

[Chase Dylan]

To be compared to Macbeth... Hell yes, thanks, Hebe...
