Poetry Slam Challenge #3: (Ecstasy)

Primal instincts taking over,
Old emotions burning dry.
Eager I await my prey,
To take away my pain.
I inhale life into my lungs,
Can I set myself in motion?
Stumbling I make my move,
Nearing my mind in freedom.
All my senses running wild,
Kismet, I have found my doom.
Ecstasy!

So many things you poets are throwing at me just feeds my daily questioning... today what will stick with me is 'can I set myself in motion?' Thank you for that, it's speaking to me personally these days.

most welcome! putting yourself in motion can be a real challenge some days, weeks and sometimes even months.

I think the harder thing is putting yourself in motion towards what you really want. You can be busy all day long with jobs, I am, but if it isn't fulfilling, you aren't in motion. It's a good question...

Yes, I have to agree with you 100% on that!

Very snaky poetisizings :)

ps I love the word "Kismet"
