Interlude

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


Interlude

 

 

 

eloquent words ponder release

from the tightly lipped artisan

finding strength in the kiss of inspiration

 

the skin of verbose longing

stretches towards the touch of the pen

and the quilted structure of a form

 

lies upon the stanzas of wanting

in hushed whisper

the theme explodes in rare climax

 

a poem conceived

from a poet's love induced advances

as she shyly turns away,

 

feeling the momentum

of his creativity

and the best intentions behind it.

I enjoy when someone can pull a metaphor or at least a subtle double entendre so far, completely taut. But it never behins to fray or unravel. You seem to have mastered this, as 'interlude' so clearly demonstrates.

Pens romanced by flaming desire
Dancing bare for a writer
Take me, use me
I am yours
Till reality burst the bubbles
And ink turns old, and dry..

Wow... well done !!

because even the worst of love poems jacob are sincere. I wrote a poem about a friend who had just passed and gave it to his family.......of course they were dumbfounded. So I went on to explain what it meant (like we always do with those who don't read or write poetry). It is hard as hell to explain
intentions my friend. The language we write in, and are ultimately restricted by) just wont allow it.

It's like catching the eye of a pretty girl on the bus. She smiles, so you delight in her smiling...But that doesn't mean you want to meet her folks or take her 6 year old Great Pyrenees for a walk....

if you know what I mean.....Great poem sir..//dana
