Dance With The Devil

           Why does the purple sky

           arouse me to

           wantonly dance with the devil

           maybe the majestic colors 

           perhaps 

           the sky's glowing embers

           amethyst burns me 

           drenched in a sultry scarlet dipped

            tonic of intoxicating fine wine 

                                          soaking up Sugarplums 

magpies swing on my heart

their lush warble 

entices a pulsating 

horizontal mambo

trip the light fandango

glide into the blue moon

 assaulting

a purple sky with mystic baubles

spins my head

 to magical nights

strumming wicked

  plucking at my

 heart beats

catapulted my senses

 senseless

blazing purple rain

 soothes my soul

its hypnotic allure

enraptures, entrances

 seduces me

why do shimmering

purple skies

 titillate me...?

burgeoning me

 over the blue moon

mesmerized in lipid pools

of your dark soul

i open my eyes 

and all I taste 

is essence

of you

another enthralling piece of cake. As and always. amethyst skies, dancing devil and magpies invite me a dance with the exhausted rubish devil. may the words rise that i may have them. your poems have been embalming the true sense of poetry and i am not buttering. we dont see really good poems these days.

Wow, I don't know how I missed this review, thanks so much...this has made my day critic h!

Well thanks, glad I could affect you so much. ha Actually...you have a very vivid imagination when it comes to words. You draw on images we can see through your minds eye with the selection of words you choose. This is great stuff. You have a great mind for writing.

[Frieda P]

ha...thanks so much, yeah sometimes it works, most times i'm not sure if it'll make sense but then I remember we're all poets here, no one thinks inside the box!

[Relic]

You're right we don't. We each have our own style, I like yours and many I'm sure would agree.

There appears to be something in the air tonight. I like this FP. Go on, dance with the devil, but for God's sake, tonight you best take the lead!
