~~Le Petit Mort

~~Le Petit Mort

A Poem by Frieda P
"

translation~the little death

"
dreamers floating on starlit cotton candy half way to the moon
signs of celestial bodies memories flaming in unison
lost in a trance of artistic delight of tenuous heights
wanderers meet on a plain halfway between nirvana
thunderous roar of passion's brazen bounties
no words to explain the shadow dance of aching 
falling to earth in pools of sinful ecstatic pleasure 
a small death of harmonious concourse to heaven's gates

Exactly how I like my men Lol ;-) Thanks Jack!
To fully appreciate an ecstatic experience, we must die to the moment before... wonderful poetry here, Frieda! The title immediately called to mind Melissa Etheridge's "Angels Would Fall":

"I want it more than truth, I can taste it on my breath, I would give my life just for a little death..."

Two great poets now singing in my head... ;)

as she sits , why do I think ? , more easily, more frequently and more intensely: Kegel.
I like the cotton candy reference and the 'halfway' comments with only one boundary each... poses questions about where, direction, flow. 'halfway to the moon', 'halfway between nirvana'. From the heart and soul. :)

The decision is yours Mark, thanks ;-)
Frieda this is incredible. I have always love the french for very phrases such as this......Le Petit Mort...what a spectacular title. Then your words to describe this ecstasy.....I'm undone.

No seriously Thank you...... ;)

Lol, thanks anyway, glad you enjoyed it so much ;-)
The words arouse such a passionate place of bliss and wanting... that rhythm too often lost to the overwhelming needs forced on us by the world... Oh, would that we could all escape here at least once a week and be refreshed! Sigh...

Good! They'll think you're on fire! ;-p
Oh my heavens, this one took me totally by surprise...I wasn't expecting something like this on the heels of the last one, but it's gorgeous...it's almost an ecstatic counterpart of sorts...maybe it's the music that has me thinking that ;P And there's something about cotton candy...it seems to bring a lift to even the saddest piece...wonderful work love :)
