The promiscuous poem bleeds
The author's disease.
Subliminal verses are unread
With meaningless words said.
I wonder why you want
What isn't yours to begin with.
You have no reason to flaunt
Your distasteful sin.
You live on the street corner
Until you're finally wanted.
You used to be a former
Love until discarded.
No one wants your disease
So the poem bleeds
With every word said
That goes unread.

Interesting poem althuogh I find it kinda
confusing. It seems as if you are comparing
poetry to a whore... correct me if I am wrong,
but if I am right then that is an awesome idea.

I agree with Joel on the 3rd stanza. Is it about prostitution? I didn’t think it fitted the poem. But I could be just wrong. God wouldn't that be weird if I just started blabbing about something I didn't understand?
Opps sorry I think I already started. bugger.

Very interesting and creative! I loved it.
"Subliminal verses are unread
With meaningless words said."
Holds such powerful meaning and the the last stanza is phenominal.
Wonderful write!

Well I found this poem to be fascinating, and very abstract, which is why it intrigues me so much. I read it about 5x's. What comes to me is that poems (perhaps yours) are sometimes prostituted, screwed over, because they are misunderstood and the wrong message received. The subliminal versus and meaningless words...the real meaning and integrity sold out of its intent?
Sorry, I'm rambling. Fascinating write

Indeed, this is a very expressive piece. Eloquent and powerful use of word and metaphor. Well done, I say, well done.

LOL This is great. Sounds like a cutting 'slam' poem: )
That first line demands the readers attention, and the rest of the poem lives up to it's full potential. Very emotive and well worded.
Again, those last two lines!
