A Most Beguiling Call

I walked the path
of the waking dead
among the lifeless
empty and bled

Inside my being
my heart lay un-beating

Til poetry found me
and breathed new life into me

Laid in deep

Paved within

Carved and Engraved

Upon a soul’d vessel
mortal’d in this realm
and slightly out of faze

Poetry Grows

I can feel the flow deep inside
as I sip upon each read
letting each letter
intoxicate me

POETRY = Defibrillator

Shocked my heart with words
now it beats in verbs
with a rhythm beyond
a normal rhyme

Temptation throbs
pulsing though out

The want of words
preying on my hunger now

Fervent in the moment moans
pound through the sound barrier
sonic synaptic surges pulsate thru
my brain's pleasure system

Poetry your so addictive
making me your junkie w***e

Ink flows in my veins
inducing sensual labor
thru poetic labyrinths

My passion builds
as my creation spills
dancing on the cusp
between want and need
towards a most beguiling call

P-o-e-t-r-y

She sings to me
from her
Melodic
Dream
Lounge

Eat me
Breathe me
Ink me

Submerge
yourself
within me

B-l-e-n-d-i-n-g
you and I
Horizon’d
between we

Illuminations
flow internally

Taking in each syllable
sliding deeper into meaning
engulfing me in verbal mist

Drips of inspiration

Flourishing rotations

Pulsating my mental grip

See she
whispers
in echoes

Whispers
in Echoes

Taunting me
from an
unturned
page

Persuading me
to lay my heart
open and bare
upon the pages
of eternity

Thoughts and beats-ONENESS
Poetry is Breathless wounds

Passion held spellbound
in Desires grip

Because through it all
Poetry saves me

And Ill sing

Self expression to the end

I am full of riddles I am full of metaphors I am just me A Lonely Poet
passing the seconds as I bleed out poetry waiting for someone to decode me

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

It seems that you are leading the reader, then almost tacitically stamp out the words that you need, a great piece, well done.

[Nobody.]

Amen! And Amen!
