Tattooed Emotions on Paper

for creative poetry

A poetic covenant written in tattooed ink

Glistening words etched on the avid heart

Flowing through veins without a navigational chart

Literacy emanating in vibrant scarlet red

Thoughts emerging swirling in the creative head

 

Expressions surging across the grey matter

Producing colorful polka dot splashes

Artistic thoughts ignites electric flashes

Bolting over the imaginative mind

Slashing at realities gripping confines

 

Adamance for the melodic lettered notes

Flares in the eccentric resonating soul

Leaving gauche addle minded people out of control

Verbalizing creativity to those who understand

Reaching out with innovative gifted hands

 

Prolific imagery sings to the poetic masses

Strumming a rhyme on inventive pages

As metaphoric phrases are released from cages

Tattooed emotions produced on paper

Encompassing the being like water vapor.

I could spend a lot of time on the title alone...The idea of an emotion being tattooed is very good. The flow of this piece had me going, and the line which struck me here most especially was,
" Bolting over the imaginative mind
Slashing at realities gripping confines."
Very powerfully done.

When we create, no matter the form, it takes us into boundaries that have no limits; letting us escape reality from a period of time.

[Mauricio Montoya]

the title alone got my attention and I love how this piece comes together.
Excellent write.

[Poetic Beauty]

EXQUISITE FLOW - Intelligent use of language without a style of reporting - or swaying to one concise side of any line. The tattoos on one's body says lots to me about a person; it tells me how they want to stand out, how their willing to endure pain in their body just for the sakes of art and creativity. The tattoos on pages represents how one truly wants to live on silently; leave a trail behind because the body diminishes - the pages do encompass like water vapors of knowledge and history. A Wonder Filled write.

I can see those tattooed emotions on the paper, the poet captures the emotions, makes them permanent in a different form. An inspirational work,

there's something balladic about the pieces I've seen of yours so far. Structure but without strangling, rhythm and some Narrative
