MAIDEN VOYAGE

MAIDEN VOYAGE

A Poem by kublakhan27

"
Oh how the greenery
of your embedded scenery
siren-whipped
the voyage of a young tongue,
drained of the froth of ambition,
and spin-cycled through hot-decibled
Krakens of over-achievements
and poor judgements.

Dry and abrasive as an obvious pun,
I scaled your lilac estate of purple and white.
Now with your audience laid out before my dead end,
I come to you a guilty boy,
having milked the innocence of goosebump fishing
in the salt-tickled rills
of your flannel estuary.

So many wild images here -

spin-cycled through hot-decibled
Krakens of over-achievements
and poor judgements...

Ah, the indiscretions of the past... For some reason, as I read "I come to you a guilty boy..." I thought of George Michael's line "Guilty feet have got no rhythm..." As always, you give my imagination a much-needed workout, Steve!

Thanks so much Arzel, I look forward to keeping in touch with your writing as well :)
Is there a reason why the word 'young' is highlighted?

You have left me speechless, Kublakhan - Loved this one though!

Many thanks Raymond :)
What a voyage! The guilt notwithstanding. The salt-tickled rills and flannel estuary blew ny mind as did 'lilac estate of purple and white. I remember someone saying a little guilt was always a side accompaniment of pleasure. Thanks for giving me a chance to savor this fine piece of writing. Much appreciated.

Very cool review KL, many thanks :)
Oh, you play innocent, my sweet... there is something to be said about an enigmatic mind...

You don't play fair...you're wicked! lol

Your abrasive words are softened by subtle and sensual tenderness, such as "lilac" and "milked innocence"...

You confuzzle me!... never a dull moment reading your art...

Abstract at it's finest, Stevie!~xoxo~;)

Always do bro and your most welcome
Definitely stratospheric yet feminine blown under tows below, kyphotic spine tingling tones..I love the sprawled imagery and to be honest being a titanic freak since the age of 6, (I might add before she was ever discovered) when I hear the words maiden and voyage together, automatically, I get that icy dark feeling of time passing by with the essence of 1912 mounts. This piece has some what of that inner dark yet unmistakable measure now oxidizing the brewing element it once was 2 and half miles down below a surfaced joint ..excellent piece.

So glad it was able to conjure up those images for you, thank you Mojo.
"dry and abrasive as an obvious pun"

wish i had said that...

this is a salt-tickled ride that tickles flannel in me....i am such a guilty boy for my many transgressions, even if they were just in my mind.

but i also feel "drained of the froth of ambition"

i rely on contentment with where i am, and who i am...

but poor judgments do haunt don't they?

powerful write, Steve....

still digesting...and milking it for all it is worth.
