A Blogosphere Zoo

.
Here I drown in flames of your eroticism
While you're trapped behind shears of hunger
Between us lays subdued limbs
Longing, aching, to sprout exotic blooms
.
Loneliness shutters both hearts
As we box shadows in our minds
Trying to grab one embrace
As they dance in laughter
.
They claimed their residents
Skipping back and forth
Through cold haunted elders
Teasing, inciting our visions
.
Colors of rage igniting for release
Wanting to free snapdragon kisses
Being stifled by python hugs
Begging for teddy bear snuggles
.
Till this prefabricated freedom expires
We'll be enlighten in a blogosphere
Wrapped in times crystal enchanted doom
That won't let our fleshy spirits roam
.
Our minds will be living in the zoo
Where only madmen rule

CafeRg's Splash Poetry Picture Challenge Winner ~ August 2004

First Place, "Tacit Words", August 2004 went to WordWeaver for his poem "Doomed Adoration". Honorable Mention went to Petro for his poem "A Potential Sanguinary Scene". Both from SplashHall Poetry.

Doomed Adoration

Hanging curtains across each window
even though they were not an exact fit.
From the inside I reveal vulnerability
while outside eyes viewed normality.

Scratching at the window your eyelids
kept prying and marching blindly over
my trampled exposed inhibitions.
I listen to the roar of my heartbeat.

Consumed, I sat apathetic at the window
over the belches of my shyness and
struck a match to my reservations.
The smell of kerosene is invigorating.
The blazing inferno has my aroma.
