Questionably Questioned...

Questionably Questioned...

A Poem by apennylate
"

Chest-earner...

"
Questionably questioned by the quest-givers
I'm a chest-earner
and I dig deeper to find lines that place my rhymes inside your mind tonight...
I'm a dark dragon seeking a stark mistress on a dime...
No warlock circle to burn on my skin
I am a sin of worthlessness in the lurch of learning magic whips...
I'm a laughingstock as the tablet flips tables of woe
Blows and throes...
I'm not Thor, no hammer and cord...
A zoid, I am moist...
Rejoice that my voice can transform transcribe describe...
Imagine the blight that will rise when they copy my hidden light
this time I'm "ite"...
Divine blind and now I free-grab rewind so the bee-line can define bright lies...
Behind enemy lines my wine is bitter like winter on the back of grime...
Slide your fines in the one-way ticket receiver and bide your brine so the wet can align with the vetting of your soul...
Whole toll is folded...
A paper-heart in a socket wrapped in a pocket
I'm on a rocket ship marked with lips like a dark kiss...
Wish I had no lisp but after today I wish the rips and wasp dips would leave me tossing and turning...
Needing grit...?
 Oh, you wish...

Powerful and worthwhile words my friend.
"Divine blind and now I free-grab rewind so the bee-line can define bright lies...
Behind enemy lines my wine is bitter like winter on the back of grime..."
The above lines were my favorite. The words hones and direct. My kind of poetry. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

A treat of a review, thank you...!
Incredible! Encore!
It seemed as if you were communicating directly with me. This is somewhat different from your usual style.
Everything has been said.
Riveting and spellbinding!

You are the best S. Are you ok? Your profile comment talks about pain? Take good care.

I will be okey, thank you... Even sponges have over-saturation limits.
Wow! Very expressive. I love how you imagined the romance as part of a game. To be honest, nowadays, romances are so deceptive they are like games and i guess that that is what you wanted to show.

You've still got it, my friend. In this one my favourite line is 'A paper heart in a socket wrapped in a pocket.'
Mind you, the dark dragon bit is pretty cool, too.
