The painter and the poet
*~.Winter's Kiss.~*
These Spiders Cluck Like Chickens
Table for Two
...frozen butterfly requiem dreams


this rage dignifies
escalates the erosion
chilled within a calamity
as a sadness multiplies
across a corrosion
of an iris eternal

thinking between
this sombre secret
facets of a crystal pen
dwelling long in silence



save me
from these
hollow pages



a lasting distress calling
from the warming caress
a soul shard recess where
the thought will compress

to write a page is to surely
depress a wandering flame
never here never there yet
strangely there is no stress
express an empty glass
and find it never filled
wasteful excess on the brink
of an early winter success


apon the glass will lay the face
betray the maidens finest lace
up on the mantle lies the case
bringing her tears from mace


making any sense?

does it need to make sense?


of course not my friend my lime
i can simply twist this rhyme
swirl the sheet and spin the dime
but what is yours and what is mine?

easy peasey lemon fucking squeezy
with weezey from a breezey fo sheezey
sneezey on my hankercheesey while

I spit in your fucking face

shit that didn't rhyme
holy baby jesus on a stick
i've lost the beat the time

quick jack you
godamn lack
fry your ass on
the candlewick


I ramble as you rave
I hunger as you crave
I finger as you wave
I crush as you save


monotonous like the factory line at dawn
eyelids wavering in the mist of early morn
last night was fire in a bookshelf of porn
and a scarecrow ate all my damn corn


simple like the thoughts that divide
listless as the eyes that do provide
repetition of words that should hide
and you wonder why i'm being so snide


a free write does not necessarily excite
but god please save me from the inane
that should combust burn and ignite
before they all drive me insane



this rage rectifies
diminish the explosion
warmed outside hope
as a madness multiplies
upside an implosion
of an iris eternal

moaning between
these sombre secrets
dribbles of a sodden pen
dwelling not long enough
in the blessed silence



all I see
are these
hollow pages

This was awesome I just loved it to bits, it just played with my mind with it's tune, it drove me mad:)

I must admit most of my work is of the rhyming variety but I still enjoyed this light-hearted dig.

Well I hope you "get it out" more often because this really kicks ass! I thought it was brilliant, as your work always is. With a touch of humor. Loved it! Julia~

stinging and lashing with your own brand of 'stomping on the dandelions' this just had me fitted with a quirky half grin and amazed as always

Rhyme was not my favorite but it did not distract me from the emotion of the piece. Well done and thanks for sharing.

...all I do is rhyme, and this made me laugh my ass off, since I can see how rhymes piss people off, especially when the writer has no clue how to use them...


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, SilentStalker (1320) writes:
...but yeah, rhyme schemes weren't made for the truly serous write, unless you're damned good at it... *gets off my high horse now* :P


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, elisa (2018) writes:
*as if on cue*...... 'then don't read them'..........clever wording.... derided rhyme......ground down and spit out ....skillfully done, of course:)


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, Ainsof (1831) writes:
No Doubt! I hear ya... and this is so much more than a parody and critique, this is itself beyond that on which it feeds... I love the line 'I finger and you wave' excellent!


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, indefined (713) writes:
yes yes I'm pulling the piss out of rhymes. they annoy the crap out of me lately so I had to get this out.


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, Ainsof (1831) writes:
yeah, sometimes they drone me into a headbanging fit.. no tunes needed. but if novel and measured, can be powerful like nothin else


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, indefined (713) writes:
indeed, they can be. I'm still waiting for some smart-ass to say "then don't read them" ;)


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, Jedi_MindFuck (318) writes:
:-) i would have but you beat me to it.


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, indefined (713) writes:
and a side note, I myself utilise my own version of rhyme schemes, so this is not an attack on people that do.


On Tuesday April 11th, 2006, indefined (713) writes:
well it kind of is but that's not the point.
