THE POET
I try not to visit her,
she smells of smoke
and bitches too much.
Because of the canyons
under her eyes
it would take too long to know her.
She decorates herself
with the dust of an old lover,
and if I get too close
I will choke on her memories
which rise like smoke,
and which she tries to bury nightly
in the moonlight.
Very powerful words!
Really great work!
Can't wait to see more.
Thanks
Darren
Thank you so very much! ❤
"I try not to visit her?" Where'd you come from? BAM! This poem is kinda badass. Going to resteem this but I have to wait til tomorrow so that I don't flood my blog page. Welcome to Steemit :) We need talent like this.
Wow, thank you fine sir! This comment made my day!
Coming from the resteem. The poem is actually pretty good! I love the metaphoric imagery. The first read is very impactful. I'll be adding you to my list of regular checkups. :D
Thank you! That is so kind! 💟
