Poetry Procure

Your ink injected into my soul

    traced a straight line to my heart

 Intoxicating mind trances

        enlightened within balladry,

                    musings heady high 

           

   Breathing in a whirlwind fire

                 heated to the core

       inhaling daydream's verse

   This addiction has no boundaries

             there is no cure for poetry

It's good to get a little glimpse into another person through their writing. I think it's very human to seek commonality, we find validation when we find another mind like our own in some way.

Words, funny how an ethereal concept can be real enough to cause emotion.

Indeed...there is no cure, but would we want one if there way? :) Great imagey to show the heart of this one; the way that words can invade a mind and almost alter our thinking. I'm fascinated by the way that I am "infected" by the words of certain writers, and it is a mystery to my why after reading I feel somehow connected to the person behind the pen. Beautifully written portrayal of something I think many of us can relate to.

[Frieda P]

I think only a poet can relate to another poet, the rest of the world thinks we're crazy. ;-)

Loved this, Frieda. You're right about the addictiveness of poetry, especially when you can write in the company of gifted poets such as yourself in this forum. Thanks for this special poem.

Your'e right, there is no cure.

[Frieda P]

Nope, but it's a grand addiction....

[Troy Henson]

I'm glad there is no cure for poetry for poetry is helping cure me. Writing is addictive and we who visit this site are blessed to be in the presence of such writers as yourself Frieda.
Well penned.

There's surely no cure for Poetry those who are cured are pretendtious, it's not addictive but it's meant to stay in us and our love for art is bliss. Beautiful piece. I love it
