Crossed

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Crossed.

 

Always gyrating, deplete from neediness
sad relationships zigzag between circuits
of in-complete spheres that rotating feed
spirals of badly-crossed wires by inserting
charged breaks in partner-resolving. Bent
on pivotal lack a shock reels at any vortex
and begin knock-back swerving by meant
detours around uncaring known shortage
in deficient installments - for commitment
to defective love reaps force turned bitter.

And that could lead to beginnings of wars.

    Good write Fay.
    Happened to me, or rather I could not access the site for a few days.
    Joined up elsewhere, but complicated site, 'noisy' or too 'busy' with requests, adverts, etc.

    • Fay Slimm.

      Yes it seems to be more than myself who was banned for a number of days Orchi - - glad to know we are both allowed back now again.

      I was wondering where you were! My experience with this site is if you enter your password incorrectly more than once it's this whole rigamarole you have to go through. so glad you are back!! Great write for today, by the way. So glad you get to share them again!

      • Fay Slimm.

        You are so right Christina that if any site has an incorrect password they seem to flip - has happened once with me and my bank and oh boy it took an age to sort. Good to be allowed back here again though.

          So good to see you here again. Welcome back, I certainly missed your fine posts and comments on here. The place just wasn't the same withoutcha.
          I hope your snazzy new device is an absolute dream to use and encourages you to tickle the keys with evermore poetry for our delight.

          Today I'm recovering from over indulging in alcohol and reading your post hasn't helped my head at all LOL. Yes with all those crossed wires going on one could even fall out with ones self. To quote a song lyric from good old King Crimson "confusion will be my epitaph"

          • Fay Slimm.

            Never got you in line for a hang-over dear Dusky - try sucking a lemon as they say that works a treat. - Good to see your wit is still in tack though - great to be back here again.

            • Fay Slimm.

              Everything is slow beyond measure with this old machine but at least I am getting let in again Andy - - they say I caught a virus - - ha - strange is never gave me any symptom but stopped up my computer instead,

              Good poem Fay .. interesting words .. I’m not sure what happened or what went wrong .. but it’s so nice to have you on here ))

              • Fay Slimm.

                How kind of you to let me know I was missed dear friend - I certainly missed reading your beautiful verses on nature.

                • Fay Slimm.

                  Ah - well if you say so it is.............................. good eh to be back together again - with all friends I mean.................x

                • L. B. Mek

                  I was experiencing withdrawal symptoms, dear Fay
                  glad you're 'wired' back-in!
                  'Bent on pivotal
                  lack a shock
                  reels at any vortex
                  and begin
                  knock-back swerving
                  by meant detours
                  around uncaring known
                  shortage
                  in deficient installments'..
                  (when we give, all we have
                  and they count out - their receipt's
                  to insure, they
                  don't lose out
                  in this game they're making of romance
                  and our potholed, heart's...
                  and all we can do, is pay that bill
                  of fate
                  and save
                  what part of heart's, remain
                  untainted
                  by their callous, indifference..)
                  this, that cruelty
                  in romance's, calculative
                  ill-intent!

                  • Fay Slimm.

                    Yes I am wired in again dear Mek and so glad to see friends like yourself with support and constructing all sorts of glorious stories on love. Top marks for your interpretation of Crossed and indeed methinks it reads better than my verbose offering.

                  • Rocky Lagou

                    And a wonderful comeback indeeed. This is great Fay! Continue writing to your heart's desire!

                    • Fay Slimm.

                      I will certainly try to do just that Rocky and thank you muchly for such kind encouragement . Glad you enjoyed the read.
