The Drake Havens 2

Mutley Ravishes

Juice building up and up

On the cusp

Of volcanic erup-

-tions 

Never satisfied

A Hindustani said

"Look at my eyes

I'm stoned

All the time."

    Pumice a lava stone and the only way to satisfy some emotions is to stay stoned.

    This poem feels like a pressure cooker! It's volcanic imagery and clipped lines really capture that sense of restless buildup. The sudden shift into the stoned voice makes it raw and unsettled, like a fragment of life overheard mid‑eruption. 🕊️🙏

      When that juice builds up it so hard to handle!

      • arqios

        Quite so dear friend 🙏🏻🕊️

        Mutley, this one crackles with that trademark mischief of yours…heat, humor, and a touch of the surreal. Short, sharp, and perfectly unhinged. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          Yet again poetically replied, Tristan!

          beautifully expressed...
