~Tango'd Fantasy~

You breathe

delerium into me

knock me

 off balance

disordered 

maddened bliss

trip the musica

 of ardor'd fusion

intensity and verve,

 

dimensionality's

 tango

dance me to insanity

trip my light fandango

dip me to new heights

in your persuasive sensuality

   ~I'm swept away in your vital essence

Frieda, this is a sensory explosion....absolutely love it. Thank you for every nuance of this poem....from the architectual shape of the words in the poem to mimic a tango dancer, to the irresistible music of the tango dancing....it just all goes together to say "Wow!" Love it!

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much, jazz'd you caught on to the shape also, still haven't found anyone who knows how to tango! Muchly appreciate your kind words.

No one articulates a dance like you do Mrs.R ;) I wish I had more to say but I think it's all been said already...I liked the bit about dipping to new heights, the irony in the juxtaposition of directions ;P A wonderful seductive piece my friend...xo

[Frieda P]

Thanks muchly Benji, care to tango? ;-)

[kublakhan27]

Sure but you'll have to lead, or give me a lesson first ;)

[Frieda P]

Sure but you know what Al said...
No mistakes in the tango, not like life....you get tangled up, you just tango on... ;-)

[kublakhan27]

[Frieda P]

You choreographed a great write, love. I loved the wording and some of the imagery. The message you sent out to all your readers was great, I loved it. I love the Tango, I love watching people dancing the Tango, it's beautiful. Quite sexy, too. ;-P Awesome job.

[Frieda P]

[Frieda P]

Ha laughing here, I'll leave that up to you koty ;-) Jazzed you enjoyed either way...

[koty bell]

Awwwww boooooo cmon dont leave me hangin... I dont wanna be the idiot who didnt get the poems overal message:(

[Frieda P]

The overall message is to live with passion, I like the reader to decide from their own perspective in life where the words will take them....you got the gist of it my friend. :-)

[koty bell]

what I like here is that the subject exactly fits the style, and visa-versa...another good one.

Oh, mm mmm, It is said that a picture can paint a thousand words. You have painted a thousand pictures with a few words. The video is beautiful but your poems have already shown me those visions.
