Muse's blood

sorenbarrett

Poems are driven by the life one's liven
Passions in rivers pour under an emotional door
Through a pipe in the brain to a stopped up drain
Feelings in ink fill a paper sink and much more

Out of this caisson to an overflowing basin
Here the drip is slow, although the level is low
Muse's blood on the floor drink deep a sip of gore
Know, life's poems continue to flow

    • sorenbarrett

      Thank you for the read Dimpy it is most appreciated

    • MDStone

      I find it therapeutic to write and read. It’s like a piece of art. Created Uniquely by one’s craft of constructing felt experiences that are common to all. Thoughts, feelings, art that flow from the very soul. Well done, Soren.

      • sorenbarrett

        Indeed for me it is quite therapeutic and that is how I started writing. Thanks so much MD for the read and comment it is always appreciated

      • David Wakeling

        Well-constructed, with the trademark middle rhyme. A tribute to poesy. Well done mi amigo

        • sorenbarrett

          Thank you so much my friend I like that rhyme scheme but don't always use it. Willis used it quite effectively and always admired it but don't pretend to have reached that level. Your kind words are deeply appreciated

          Writing is what keeps me slightly connected to the normal world, and has been the only outlet i have ever felt comfortable in saying i feel, loved the read

            Thank you for your review Tobani and most kind words of support. Writing is a therapy and flows naturally but sometimes we get wet.

            • Poetic Licence

              At least you can as wet as you like in writing in the safe knowledge you won't drown

                Thank you Cryptic yes they at times flood and at other drip. They make a mess and are hard to control but they keep coming. Appreciate the read and and words of support.

                  Writing has been my life, my saving grace, the way I get to process my inner and outer worlds and connect with others in the world around me. It has been a blessing to me beyond all compare. Well done in expressing that so eloquently, Soren. 🌹👏

                  • sorenbarrett
