Still-Life Valentine [anyone? =/]
Alright, anxiety is seeing fit to keep me awake. And when I have insomnia, I write. Looking for an opinion or two on this latest, piece, so have at it. They seem to like it over on deviantart, but I wouldn't mind a bigger audience than the few glances I get over there, in all honesty. XD;
"It's not all sex and rainbows," She says as the stockings reach her knees "In fact you might say I'm allergic to butterflies, apathy, and schemes." "In fact, it's quite the opposite," and now the lipstick's going on "It's compromise and consequence weighing on our dawn. "Still, there's ambiance and ignorance," The straps are dipping down "There's quintessential appetence, for he who wears the crown." "Why a man is not a man at all," she kneels down on the bed Nor a woman as she said Without conviction narrowing, to shoot the scholar dead." "Alas, we are a dying breed," his wary hands upon her thighs "Of literates and good hearted beasts, so I philosophize." "And you my love," pursed lips, her figure in his eye "Still but crave the flesh, as I lay you down to die."

Great poem xD Wish I could write like that...
Not sure what it's about though... (bad at interpreting poems) what's it about? |
Har, that's the beauty of poetry. It can be about whatever you wish or think.
For me I suppose it was about life and relationships never really being what they're cracked up to be in television, books, movies. What we're told growing up and what it's like as a grown up. I'm interested in other people's takes on my piece. :] |
You're missing a quote mark somewhere in this section
"Why a man is not a man at all," she kneels down on the bed Nor a woman as she said Without conviction narrowing, to shoot the scholar dead." <.<; But I love it! At first glance (as in when I read the first line) I dismissed it as something trashy and expected it to be something wholly different then it was, but you won me over at compromise and consequence! *laughs* I take it as a statement on love being something everyone claims to know, but really doesn't. It's a mystery that's never quite what you think it is, and though many think they understand the parts, it's the whole that escapes them. |
