A Poem by Frieda P

kiss me now before you lose your discretion's breath
want to reveal a hush'd whisper to you of darkly hue'd synopsis
it's not peer'd in a sunrise, overcast with the black tide of moons
it's where heart's pulse sank to the depths cursing Hades agility 
a shadowy horse of a furtive crimson view etch'd in gunmetal 
the vile reticent side sketched within the palm of my hand
written long ago, chipped upon pedestals of bare'd iniquity
the only lullaby is spun within crow's clawing soulless caws   
terrifying, they recall your tempest face and conspire within 
gray recoils of mask'd redundancies ferociously passing through
a glance of declination could send you reeling in a frenzied tailspin
each designated way the beast resides sitting 'tween credibility's abduction
swim in the vast ocean perspective's of secret landscapes or
 take my hand and dance in the squalls of obscurity's seascapes
apprehension amidst costly chances in exposure's rejection and denial

Searching for a distinct message quite literally hidden in the routine of daily actions and cherry-picking what you know in order to get one, and one that bothers you to no end . . . Or at least that's what I derived from this. Anywho, well done, friend. Keep it up~

Well, Jack's review kind of made us all go, okay, what could we possibly add to that, so hey, a great piece, as always, and I scanned but nary an apostrophe out of place I found.:)

Kiss me now, before i tell you of the death place, because after... you won't be here.
They place opposite love. No one stays long.
Is the theme I hear, or feel...
Its beautiful of course, the writing...
Im sure it says more than what I say.

Happens in relationships sometimes when we show them who we really are, thanks Terry.
This is a mesmerizing write Frieda so smooth filling your head with so many pictures...all kind of movement. I went rushing to the next line. The female seems to be in a hurry to become entwined with a lover and she must have given her such a thrill she files it and wants as many repeat sessions as she can stand. Juicy stuff!

Damn it Jack...you took all the really good compliments ..LOL Ohhh Frieda....this is my kind of poem! You have a gothic dark side to you! I'd like to see more of this! I once heard a man say...

Frieda, you are certainly a master. This one left me reeling spinning into infinity. Every line is perfect.

"a glance of declination could send you reeling in a frenzied tailspin" - how fragile the heart... those trapped in emotional dependency collapse in this rejection, I know I have...

You're kind sweetbind, thanks so much!
Whew...that piece just touched me deeply. There are no words, my dear friend...magnificent, marvelous, majestic...not good enough.
Fabulous, fantastic...these fall short.
I don't think I've ever read anything else that moved me in quite the way this does.
Now, let poor old Granma catch her breath, child...

Oh, that is nice! U r welcome!
You never cease to blow me away with your imagination Mrs.R...I honestly don't know how you do these things. Poets often fall into a trap of wishing they wrote like someone else, but I'd trade my style for yours without hesitation. Amazing work...xo
