sheen of young love

Privacy a word of the past. Whether lovers of others or freedom lovers we are observed, poked and prodded and there is no right to privacy in the constitution. A mere afterthought in the ninth amendment now felt outdated and up for interpretation. Who you slept with, what positions were used, how you spent your money, how you voted, and the color of your stool all public knowledge.

I thought of the perfume called Poison. It is intoxicating. These words are too. That final line says it all. Good poison. In a strange way it reminded me of chemo. It can be a life saver.

\"...gazed upon the creation..\" and then came the revision.... After \'process\' and \'struggle\' so perfectly summed up the whole effort, there seemed little else to add....

A fine write arqios. Great use of language. The barbs kicked in with vigor. This dame certainly made her mark deeper than those that went before her. Your final line was unexpected and is a classic. Poison, so many variants of it. Hard to resist.

Great write. To me the poison is a women. Like a poisonous medication that works barley better then a bandage. Just saying.

How some people and things get right under and into your skin, either good or bad and once resident very difficult to eject, enjoyed the read

Wow this is a snake bite with plenty of venom. I\'m not sure who is upset with whom but the message is palpable. Wonderful

Good poison! For a moment there I thought you were going into self-pity! Like so many on this.....no wait, I\'ll keep my mouth shut.

Funny how we like our poisons. Be it drugs, cholesterol, sugar, inactivity, toxic relationships they are the things we live for. A write that seems too real to feel good about but its appeal like the drug brings one back. Lovely Cryptic

This is wonderful. I was transported to the poet\'s study. Both the joy and the struggle. Both are here wrestling. Inspirational

arqios

Your poem is rich in metaphor, evoking the interplay between poetry, memory, & transcendence. The language is both elegant & haunting, lending itself to deep reflection.

Absolutely loved the opening line \"a poem is the funeral pyre of pulsations\" - stunning!!!

Your poem is perfectly refined & deeply expressive.

I could go on but, actually, this is best left as it is...I just want to read it again & not evaluate anymore.

regards

The struggle at times to find the inspiration to turn a thought into a poem. To develop it through all the stages and then to deliver it. You describe this so well. I like that word fickle. That sums up my own muse. Nicely composed arqios.

February 16th, 2025 12:40

not your day, either?
Cassie58 said:

Some great metaphors here arqios, but I would be lying if I told you I felt no pain. I did.

wrenched dreams

Another fine write from your prolific pen. Have a word with my muse will you. She’s slacking.

Clunky means more room to play. This \"work in progress\" is quite good as is, my friend.

\"Lines emerged, each a reminder of the struggle, a / record of the battle waged on paper.\" These words really hit home. I know that battle! ❤️🙏
