shining down the barrels of hot pursuit

indescribably hype about a journey downwards

highway 75 and 12 inches to the bottom

giddy driving single digit…noon in front

golden orb beaming a glorious set of iridescent cheeks

yellow hard shells of machismo prefer gawking at

honking flirtations like city cabs

and my eyes smile at both corners

as Cassville White grows smaller in the rear view

music is Dillatude ready connecting iconic ensemble

Common Sense with a performance of Brandy

Marsha’s ambrosia and though a hidden twist appropriate jazz Snoop Lion

with lights dimmed on a perfect road side collaboration

bedside personality…duality as a couple trained from diaphragm

as the carpet ride past romantic eateries persuasive retail family resorts

beautify sprinkled crumb capped mountains

can’t wait to reach a spot that lulls sky to a lovely rose

turn the blinds slightly sundown

perfect conclusion...conversation

destination

wildly anticipated

company

After many readings this poem grows on the reader, though there is something about the avante-guard movie like first impression of obscurity, that potentially makes it a most difficult piece to "judge". There will be other times for you and Streamline to showcase your work in the Tournament, though you may want to choose a slightly less convoluted pieces.

Sometimes it's such a dart down the rabbit-hole of subjectivity, that a certainly high % of your readers may be lost even if appreciatively so.

It is juicy and tantalizing though, a sexy piece and highly artistic.

I know, I think I've said this before but I do have a tendency to go off the deep end lol. Thanks Wuji.

The secret of your style is when you deliver or more properly, WHEN the reader can keep up with you it's truly of another realm of the imagination. I would rather be an obscure genius than a boring poet for the masses.

[Shirlena]

Thanks, I would too. I'm used to being misunderstood :) It's a gift.

I have the same problem actually with my poetry. Look at the best poets here? They are all in the same boat. Like Steve (kublakhan27), he's so original in how he writes most people just don't get it.

So here I am... sitting in the passengers seat... lookin around-- taking in nothing but the perfect sights of life with my besty... taking deep breaths to heighten sensations while smiling sidewards and head bopping downwards to the tunes that start another thought of reflection... yeah, what a journey?

You my dear-- bring in a colour with every bright anticipated splash of your fine artwork of imagery.

Keys turning... engine stops--feels like we just started? but you know I'm here to take another journey anytime... cause your a damned fine driver and the best company a friend could want or need... can't wait to reach a spot that lulls to a lovely rose... yeah, perfect conclusion!

Such imagery here my dahling.Your poetry is such a pleasure to read Shirlena.Always you leave me smiling and asking for more :)

[Shirlena]

It is my hope that someone walks away from my reading feeling somewhat lifted and enlightened the way I feel after reading the poems of yours and many others. Mutuality dahling, mutuality and I thank you :).

A trip of hot pursuit, an anticipated company, a splendid performance awaiting and honking flirtations. That is where the lovely rose turns into blush and upside down like head over heels. Another marvelous narration...Bravo.....................

Thank you I have traveled this highway a lot and it's beautiful. I just wanted to capture it in away I had not been able to before. Thank you Sam.

[Sami Khalil]
