Poison And Beauty

Poison And Beauty

poems grow
out of sweet and
bitter reality

sometimes they stalk me
with turbulent chaos
poison and beauty

I throw them out
and they land here
as if

a passionate avalanche
with no where
to go

Excellent way to describe the process. I've had my words hunt me down and torture me. Sometimes with blades and other times with feathers lol

Sweet and bitter reality is only old dust the lingers in places people can't reach. In short the meaning can be a reality or fantasy. Beauty can be poison. Great work!

Always nice to hear from you, and thank you!

Poetry is what is lost in translation.
