Chance Crash

wrapped the night in white silk 

reciting poetry by dusky subterfuge,

so it'd be easier to swallow whole

tousled hair on the pillow curled in satin

you crashed the gates of reveling crazy

sensibilities were caught between the sheets

unattainable read the intrigue alluring

i breathe you in like a heroin addict

smoke rose to the ceiling in morning light

etchings on my skin of thrashing insanity

you cast your spell from the prototype

i dubiously drank down the adulteration

watched as the sun assaulted the moon's senses

zephyrs lost their memory in the afterglow

opening the book of detached, broken liaison

you crushed my heart between random pages

bookmarked leather, with a heather feather

nothing rhymed quite right after the feint

the imagery you conveyed in this poem, as well as again, blah blah blah your choice of words, falling into their proper order in each stanza is nothing short being brilliant. this is breath-taking and a very enjoyable read that has taken me away. i am sorry for always being so redundant with my reviews upon your lovely art, Frieda, i've run out of words!

[ms. barrie]

[Frieda P]

I know you have class, you don't have to tell me ;-) And sleep, what is that new fangled theory you speak of? xo

[ms. barrie]

[Robbie~xoxo~]

Sounds like a crazy night!... all that thrashing could truly make one insane. You have delivered an intense piece, ~"You crushed my heart between random pages" ~ came full circle with this one, dear Frieda. Well penned!

[Frieda P]

Thrilled you enjoyed this one Barrie, thanks so much! xo

"you crushed my heart between random pages
bookmarked leather, with a heather feather"
Those lines stood out for me dear Frieda in this magnificent poem. You thoughts and emotions are always intense and that gives your writes more power and punch for maximum effect...
A new book will emerge...:)

[Frieda P]

You're always too kind Sami, thanks for your sweet words, much appreciated, always. :-)

[Sami Khalil]

You are welcome...:)

[Emerald Seas]

Excellent!

[Frieda P]

Doing the happy dance! ;-)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

How to interpret this one? Might be about unrequited love or writing late at night? As always a flowing, poem set out in wonderful metaphors

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your thoughts here John.

[Rita L. Sev]

"Crazy sensibilities caught between the sheets" - an excellent description of poetry (and a good title for a book of YOUR poetry!) Wonderful!

[Frieda P]

Ha, now that's a thought Rita, thanks so much, always enjoy your visits!

[Androglossia]

Magnificent. It's like an apt conventionalized utterance of angst from a gradual pace of the first three stanzas, to its progression on the two lined stanzas up to its instantaneous end. Very nice.

[Frieda P]

So happy you enjoyed this one Maryanne.

[Dr. Wood ?]

wonderful.....poetry drags you in and intoxicates you it is your best friend; your worst enemy ....the illicit lover you cannot resist

[Frieda P]

Interesting review Dr Wood, thanks so much.

[Jack...]

Indeed the magic of these late night redezvous can surely at times be deceiving. This was a definite bright spot for my day. I am still amazed at your word usage and the patterns cast by your poems. Very nice Frieda.

[Frieda P]

I almost missed this excellent review Jack, my bad, thanks so much my lovey friend!
