Scarlet Letter

I am a marked woman

I feel it upon my brow

a scarlet letter of  'blood' red

Veins injected, methodically rejected

first a tiny seed implanted

ejaculated into divinity

mystical of woman's loins

apparition of an innocent soul

should I have not been born, 

what then of darkest lusty desires

violins played in C Sharp

music's short lived lullaby

now orchestrated by a mad conductor

plunged into the darkness by familiarity

could you not have dipped into the honey

hallowed urns of empty souls

I wear this badge, although not visible

it's left its mark for eternity

forevermore I shall remain Scarred

I won't dare try decipher this, cos I'll get it wrong. (Remember?) :)

However, the atmosphere and language is dark and pithy, pure and flawed. Stimulating and intense, FP!

If you like, you can change 'left it's mark' to 'left its mark'. You'll be saving an apostrophe and doing your bit to cut down on carbon emissions!

haha you're a funny man C.R. I do that all the time, you'd think I'd learn...there is no wrong and/or right I feel in poetry, once I put it out there it's in your hands, see fit to do with it what you must. All reviews come from our own instigations of lfe. I thank you kindly sir. Caron emissions. ha. ;-)

[Frieda P]

I know carbon ;-)

[Frieda P]

lmao, I didn't think it'd get that far!

[Frieda P]

I slung a few question marks too, they get stuck, and you need to have them sugically removed. ;-)

You write with passion and it shows.
The scarlet letter was meant to define. It was a lie to make the village feel better Scars do not define you. It is a lie to make you give up and give in. Scars mark you and you define what they say about you.
A good write.

If I recall correctly, that was about adultery, if I'm reading you right. To me it signifies public humiliation in where I feel although no one knows, well, few people, I still wear this disgust on the outside of my body and people can see through the smile and outside facade. Thanks for your review, it's always insightful.

[David Scott]

Yes dear... To you it feels that way... Claim a different truth. You are a woman of passion and love and beauty. Claim that identity. It is yours!

[Frieda P]

Woo, made my night mister! You know it's easier said that done, those imprints that run through our veins are killers, I may act that way on the outside but the insides are a bundle of reactive mush. Thanks again!
