Exhal'd Lunacy

Thanks for the 'lunaticism' Cassie ;-)

You tripped over my exhale

I plummeted into your anxiety

my tongue was twisted in your head

as I breathe in your vibe of misfit disparity

surrender deafen'd my equilibrium

in your attempt to polish our symmetry

checks & balances fell like insufficient collateral

wound up in a flaming well of a dried wicked asylum

inky promises that were deferred as charged

negotiations postponed without further adieu 

locked and vault'd as another lunaticism lesson learned

Again, I am speechless...it blows my mind that anybody could be this good. I wish I could say more love...you know I love to offer as much input as possible in my reviews, but your spell over me is intensifying...your words are overwhelmingly potent to me...it is criminal that I am published and you are not Mrs.R. You really would have at least one book out there by now if you wanted it...you're the best writer I've ever known, and the best friend I've ever had...xo

Geez are you trying to make me cry Benji, mission accomplished my sweet friend.....xo

[kublakhan27]

My dearest friend, you've always known I speak from the heart, but with you I speak with my mind as well...you're the only person I know with which I can successfully combine the two...you know the difference between my venting and my sincerity, and you're the only one for whom the latter comes naturally for me...and I'm not saying all of this just to make you cry ;) xo

Lunatic lessons learned are so very painful. You write with such intensity and you join ideas quite expertly like the asylum and the lunatics.

[Frieda P]

That's what happens when you're loco in the cabeza. ;-) Thanks muchly Anne.

This is excellent Frieda, I told you, you have a way with words. I enjoyed the lunacy you have exhaled here

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your 'lunaticism' to add to my daftness Cassie...

[Lyn Anderson]

As the resident crazy cat lady and apostrophetically challenged woman that I am, I can appreciate this, as well as the slightly annoying musical accompaniment ...

[Frieda P]

Ha what were you expecting from the other resident lunatic, Bach?

[Rita L. Sev]

It doesn't take much to tip the scales in the direction of lunacy, I have found...

[Frieda P]

Ain't that the truth, thanks Rita.

[Kristina Moulaison]

This is extraordinary Freida! Loved every line!

[Frieda P]

Woo doing the happy dance, grazie!

"Your attempt to polish our symmetry" (Wow!)
It's full of those striking "Punch-lines"! Once again, you have managed to create a masterfully-written piece, packed with emotion and vivid images, within so little space :) I am in awe of your talent, Frieda! This one might be my favorite.

[Frieda P]

I'm in awe of your sweet review, thanks so much K...always appreciated.

[WILDERNESS]

Thats why we should learn the art of faking a life to hide the twisted minds.
Splendid read and a very unique poem indeed.................
Where are the pills ............. ;)

[Frieda P]
