Reverse Posture

what is this gaping memory

vivid past recklessly crashing 

posturing recondite & shrill

in the recesses of spent blood

crushing the backbone of resolve

moments on the clock that haunt

beckons formidable  to dare a revival

driving insanity as dusky metallic chaser

stuck in reverse on breakneck speed pursuit

esoteric wisps of darkly emotive triggers

shooting the psyche with high caliber ammunition 

head on collision with fatally smoky consequences

survival hermetically sealed ripe within noxious, lethal fumes

dawn reveres the moon's pulse within further contemplation

prescribed elixir dressing wounds for temporary compensation

complications pronounced dead upon arrival...rest in peace

"dawn reveres the moon's pulse within further contemplation
prescribed elixir dressing wounds for temporary compensation"

- Very impressive. Frieda, you are poetess unmatched here.

This poetry has some great and incredible phrases and lines...

"esoteric wisps of darkly emotive triggers
shooting the psyche with high caliber ammunition " - So intense the agony...


Then...

"survival hermetically sealed ripe within noxious, lethal fumes" - Such suffering to live on...

One of your masterpieces Frieda.

Wow Divya, I'm overwhelmed and humbled by your words here, thanks so much, glad you like my crazy rantings! ;-)

[DIVYA]

You are welcome Frieda. The lines were just out of the world, this time. I had to say it. :)

[DIVYA]

And if this is crazy ranting, then I would love to be crazy anytime! :)

[Frieda P]

"Shooting the psyche with high caliber ammunition..." Now THAT'S a great metaphor! Frieda, you always come up with something fresh to ponder.

[Frieda P]

So jazzed you think so Rita, thanks my friend.

[Rita L. Sev]

I cannot match up to this, you are seasoned and a legend. Amazing.. the intense push of this poem plays on the mind and lingers long after it has been read.

[Frieda P]

[KeeD]

[Frieda P]

Ha, you're going to make me keep looking for these b***s aren't ya...still don't see them, perhaps I have the wrong equipment ;-P

i like the formatting...reverse...but not just that...i read this backwards and it reads as well as it does forwards...

sometimes we go through life with a reverse posture...because life doesn't give us "peace in rest"

very clever.

[Frieda P]

Ha, as you are clever jacob, it sort of does huh? Funny that. Thanks so much, and peace in rest would be a nice change of pace, yes.
