Simplicity~

~painting poetry~

your branches

dip

leaves  stroke

my blush vulnerability

I curl from a crème colored shell

soak through a landscape of leaves

fingers submerge knuckle deep

earth in my life line

a pebble sinks her body between my brows

terrestrial starbursts

fresh mud smears

my laugh lines in ochre and sable

jade iris

cerulean iris

planets in an ivory skull

your press from underneath

mandrake threading my sacral nerves              

root fibers caressing my pelvis          

pushing                                            

me               

into the blue sky;                                 

on a breath                    

we                           

are                                 e

      ~                             n

           ~                       r

                ~                    o

                        ~          b

                                ~ r

                                       ~ i

                                            ~  a

Though..
The name of the poem is simplicity..
Pattern is so complex….
I had to read it two times…
To fathom the depth..
Of your writing….
It seemed like unraveling a mathematical problem…
But enjoyed the process…
But in the end I am not satisfied….
As there can still be so many patterns of meanings…
Apart from what I understood….
That much philosophical….
Loved it so much…

Interesting use of technological color and font patterns. The complexity of the poetry itself seems restless; however, it seems to almost pair well with the title instead of being opposites. The last few lines are my favorite, because they are alluring. The imagery with which the last lines create seems to be picture perfect. I enjoyed this piece. Thank you.

Mystical, magical, at the same time primal and wild.

and you are right, enrobia would be a delightful name for a realm of faery.

[Morning Star]

This is magnificent, like a magic wand trailing in its form that creates spell on emotion and forever reverberates the senses.

Wow. I was initialy impressed by your poem, but once i got over my confusion about "enrobria" i went back and read the poem from bottom to top I was able to see a whole new dimension. Bravo

[Amber Betty Marie Child..]

call me a dumass but i didnt know what that word meant, thank you for the definition, i mean the real definition

[Bard Constantine]

A lovely reminder of what we take for granted in the midst of complications that we build around our souls like prison bars. Harmony in nature, in society, in ourselves... there lies the path to peace of mind. Beautiful writing...
