Array ( [sid] => 135792 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Collector [time] => 2007-07-08 00:03:07 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Oh ill-fated love, no Juliet requited,
I see you tease and taunt, flounce and flaunt:
I become yet more excited.

Your hair it sighs and winks like girls with prices,
You flick and lead your head, down paths of red
Jewelled with phoney nices.

Your intriguing sins, they drew me in with hooks,
And sore desire makes me mad, knowing laughs at sad
Pathetic shows of innocence at home in books.

Carnivorous carnival, you eat up men like sweets,
Floating in gaudy prints, leave them none but after-dinner mints,
No longer will you wave and promise gourmet treats.

Now taste your last temptation, for hooks reciprocate,
Unlike your love weak by class, looking down on mule or ass,
Yes I知 not them; yes I am Man and you shrew authoritate.

And you will learn in time I知 Romeo to you,
Time I値l give in endless ticks, my love will blind and burn your tricks,
And safe and sound you値l live confined, a payment truly due.

Intense read this morning, to say the least. OUCH I feel that someone needs to get a little revenge here. Maybe that's just my perception. Enjoyable read.

Peace,
Laura

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ツゥ
