Consecrat'd Madness

 

Consecrate me in your madness

    sanctify this communion,

sketch me in bursting metaphorical hues,

  color'd tinges blushed of cardinal's soft sonnets

paint a picture within inky filigreed lace,

  finely woven silken thread'd tapestries

 my religion breathes your affinity

      harmony's rapport of favored essence

twist poetry into my hair,   whilst

   dancing upon the music in your stanza's hymn 

bathe me in peachy champagne bubbled prose

  suffuse butterfly shivers up my spine

i breathe the air you've fervidly script'd

   etch'd in blood flow awakens my senses,

the emotions artistes' bleed out

   you are my strength, my power

          my weakness, my Achilles heel ~

 swooning in the phases of your darkly lit moons

           cut me deep into the heart & gut

piercing movement of echoes unfold.  

        moving majestic amethyst  mountains, 

shred my soul with your dragon's breath

     anoint my breasts, oils that seep from thy quill

            make me punch drunk aberration's tipsy 

        drenching me in sparkling scarlet wine

clinging from the vines of destiny's path

           my soul's existence is solely dependent

    upon your utterly blissful verses within Elysian Fields

dear Frieda... "color'd tinges blushed of Cardinals soft sonnets".
Be still my soul. "Harmony's rapport of favored essence...
poetry twisted in my hair". You are my strength...
my weakness... my power... Freida... you have struck
beautiful chords of a heavenly harp within my heart.
truly... Pat

[Frieda P]

You humble me Pat, thanks so much.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

love the way you incorporated the religious images into your metaphors here...

the sanctity, the faith and belief in love.

[Frieda P]

Oh you know jacob sometimes that stuff slips out, thanks so much.

[Angel]

The poet's love affair with Poetry....
Ahh, those muses...they can be harsh.

[Frieda P]

Like lovers, they giveth and taketh away....yep.

[icelandicblue]

Ah what madness is this. The most intoxicating kind I think but with madness come vulnerability which you've penned with technicolor breath.

[Frieda P]

Always love your reviews Anne, thanks so much.

You never fail to suffuse butterfly shivers up my spine with your words Mrs.R. It blows my mind that anybody can be this good on a daily basis. This is intense, erotic, soulful, inviting, intoxicating, and a million other things affiliated with goodness, in varying degrees of mischievousness ;) As you know I rarely quote specific bits in reviews but...

shred my soul with your dragon's breath
anoint my breasts, oils that seep from thy quill

My imagination will need some time to work with that one...wow...this is one of my favourites, no doubt about it...you really are amazing my sweet friend...xo

[Frieda P]

This is what poetry does!

Poetry is twisting through the fabric of my mind
where its growing tendrils coil as they wind and wind.

[Frieda P]
