like carbonated vomit
clears her rag body
of seductive toxins
her skin feels
like a freshly washed bathrobe
but smells like
urine tests
Forgive me for not being her daughter; a bloody angel
Neon signs in my eyes scream:
“Mommy is a drunk Star!”
stumbling in the sky holding her head up for support
and the rest sing in unison:
“crush crush the clouds!”
ah, stars are silly when one is burning out

I am sorry I posted this poem twice...if someone who has "power" could delete this one for me I would appreciate it so very very much.
It's all the double clicking I do...crap. |

Nice imagery of a drunken mother. I mean nice use of imagery to describe your mother.
Did that sound right? Well, I liked this. :-)

no matter what you're writing about, the words always seem to carry a certain power and a slippery feeling of gleeful doom. i hope that makes as much sense to you as it does to me.
speaking of this scrawl exclusively, "brilliant" is the only word i can identify out of the swarm that it spawned in my head.

You have such a unique voice! This... is powerful... I absolutely love the last two lines! No 'woe is me', no 'I hate you'.... just what it is, as it is/was, and... enough strength in this write for the reader to understand it as bigger than the words on the page. Wow.
Very impressed,
SNM |

Cool, I found another great poet on this site. I think you have a great imagination. I look forward to reading more of your poems. You have the craziest imagery. Literally insane! I love it.
Green lemonade by the bed

lol...this is absurd, hilarious, yet it is wonderfully expressed. Your descriptions are unique. her skin feels liek a freshly washed bathrobe. What? Insane! Hilarious! lol, I can't believe you wrote this. But I love it, I don't want you to think that I'm making fun of you. I think this is crazy original, it definitely takes you (the reader) outside of your box of normal poetry, and this I love, because it expands the mind.
Very interesting. I could highlight the rest of the poem and comment on it, but I don't want to be too repetetive. I have a feeling all of your poetry is going to be this original. Nice.
Be True,
zenmind |
