Fall from lace...

doomsday parade possession's 

quicksand all enveloping

trembling in the acid rain

sold your rocks for roll & soul

devil may care attitude's name

decree's snare written on rubber lace

contract'd pretty one trick pony

flashing neon beneath dignity

treasure just the other side of pain

alibi's underground disgrace

captivated in the snake's charm

unicorn approaches from the rear

ashen high heels all go down

simply falling    there is no love

Whoa! the dark underground of whoredom ... from Will and Grace (Grace: "Some might call me .........................kinkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkky.")
the whole thing is perfect, says i ...every word and nuance ...but those last two lines are a knock out.
i watch quite a bit of undercover journalism and news coverage ...several of which take us through the porn streets .... shocking enough but so much more we will never see (being on the outside) i am sure is much worse... you do such a good job with matching pics and song to your work ..always a pleasure to read ... now ..how much do i owe you :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

How fabulous and divine at the same moment when read, well done.

[Frieda P]

Why thank you so much Thomas...

The last line is just wow. It wraps up the strong poem powerfully. And the title is inviting curiosity, Frieda. Beautiful again!

[Frieda P]

Thanks Arzel, I kind of like that title too, says so much I think. :-)

Damn gurl, this is something else. I loved this one. Loved the title. You had me hooked from line one right to the very end.... Great job as always

Two figures playing the game of lust instead of love, hence why they fall, although no love exists. There are certainly many symbols for ecstasy apparent here, what with the mention of unicorns and ponies and "treasure just the other side of pain". I enjoyed this, well done with this piece

[Frieda P]

You would Tai, you're twisted, ha...I meant thanks. ;-)

[Tai Ryens]

Yes, I would, and yes, I am ;) ahaa!

[Archangel Gabriel]

I liked the play on words of the title it really did set the scene. It has an emptiness to it like someone brutalised and simply sinking and giving up. But watch out for those pesky unicorns coming from the rear my Lady!

[Frieda P]

I know, right, those pesky critters are always a problem! ;-)

[Archangel Gabriel]

Depends on your tastes sweet Lady!

[Frieda P]

Ha, yes a fantasy horse with a big whatever/horn...hahah

[Archangel Gabriel]

Yes but be careful where his desires lay!

Another stream of consciousness write, this one has a darkness to it a cynical kind of darkness. Well done

[Frieda P]

I was inspired by the music, thanks Mark.

[MsJewel]

A little dash of darkness Frieda, but you wear it well. So many great, poweful lines in this one. Brilliant writing my friend.
