    Memory

    Blood drips slow from the ceilingOh it tastes like rustHead's poundingSirens screamingMy mind’s combustCops poundingThe door’s caving in“Where were you” they shout“where’ve you been”I’m blankI’m hollowThe reel won’t playNo pastNo shadowJust a foggy grayIron tastes like memoryBitter and coldQuestions...

    • This has a surreal aspect to it. The iron tasting like memory is brilliant. Mind sees blood

    • Brilliantly penned, Drieks. Into the book it belongs! Phenomenal lyrics my friend especially that chorus, love the drive of the musical arrangement, the beat is almost trance like. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    • Thank you Damian! 🙏🏻

    • This is awesome! I’m sorry I’m late to this post!!
      Just wow!!

    • I can’t thank you enough for your beautiful words. I am pretty bad at accepting compliments so bare with me.
      Also, english is not my native language so if I say something that doesn’t make much sense, I apologize!

      But thank you for saying all this to me. Truly.
      And no, I do not realize I help people through my words but it is really nice to think I can/do.

      ❤️

    • What depravity does the rip tide take you to..

      • hello dearest Damian it’s so good to see you I thought we lost you thank you graciously❤️

    • Lust is a beast! You wove this one with a silken hand, Brenda. That ending was about dead on perfect 🧡

    • Crimsin, this is fantastic! You weave this emotional tour de force into a poem of great seductiveness. You make an emotionally sensual poem of the highest order here. I could feel the rip tide through you words. And the ending couldn’t have been better. Truly a resolution to surpass them all. Loved this all the way.

    To The Point

    Not really sure how to feel about it. There's something moving in the air. I hear it like a syncophant song, wondering if I do or dare.   Accusatory words written in code still crush the heart of the strong. If you're the one being bowed...

    • Powerfully penned, Alexandria. Excellent write my friend, love the layers in this. Appreciate you.

    • Brava! That last stanza blew my mind!

    • This screams with such a powerful quiet strength and says so much with a surprisingly few amount of words.

    • Always remember. It takes strength to be gentle and kind.

    • More please! I understand this well. Slight empath – had to be able to read a room to survive. I can feel the hate and the love and ALWAYS know when to leave.

    • This poem makes me think of several things at once. A relationship in which one partner tries to dominate. The other wants an equal split or a literal split.
      In a house, the rule has to be balanced. A back and forth, not all take and no give.

      But this also can relate to the current political situation. The one seeking power and crush all in his way. We don’t want to be ruled like that from that house, either.
      This is good stuff…Opening the doors to varied interpretations allows readers to see what they will for themselves. And that is good poetry.

    • We’re moving in the same direction S …
      Fear not
      You’ll know when it’s right
      Ok ?

    • Chère A.,
      Hope this finds you well?!

      Over here it is 7 in the morning and I played our coop on earphones.
      We’re trekking again.

      This beautiful poem of your slipped through the cracks. I’m really sorry for that.

      Cause I remembered your remark of you being on StarsRite too.
      I was brought up with the ‘if a girl says no, she means no’ principle. So, if you want to write only one poem, I have to settle for that.

      But I hope that I can lure you to write a poem again!

      Our coop drew 4.685 listeners* so far, so may I hope for another one? In NL*
      Anyway, I wish you a beautiful Sunday.
      Warm regards, Gus

    So it Shall Be

    When a calm sky turns grey And a whispered wind cuts When the peace you need to stay But vanishes like dust   Every beauty on a rose Is kissed with lust The roots never grow Past the decayed crust   Word sung in a resounding hymn Played with notes  Eco'd...
