I desire the things which will destroy me in the end- Sylvia Plath
Give me a cauldron, a soaked cotton firmament
multiplied and divided,
in the sunshine of cigars and the owls of dark
Pulverized ropes of hollow imagination, it flatters me.
I want to put my foot in the skull of my brain
and measure the elasticity, the gravity throbbing.
Your smell locks my lips, susurrous allusion
with your diamond dents and abstraction
Kneading your mouth to my skin
my pores to your arms,
loose like vapours dissolving into the colossal violet sky
So, I crave you and your moist moist moist tongue.
A little does not fulfil my throat,
I want the dirt, and the limericks broke and joined
with the sustenance of deluge inside my veins.
The remains and ashes,
the blue-bells,
the clock between my mind and my doings,
insane movements, I want all.
Slick slurps of hatred and love
clinging my iris and legs.
I want all things bad and eccentric.

PS.-Because I am running out of inspiration, I could always find some, from this amazing evergreen poetess. She is simply astronomical.
My poem on Visual Verse can be read by you all here.
This is absofuckinglutely beautiful. Genius!! The dearth of inspiration haunts me still. But may yours continue to brew in that cauldron of yours from which I dip my beak too from time to time. Lots of love and poetry to you, my dear ❤

How achingly sensual! Your writing invites me explore darker shades of my personality. “Your smell locks my lips, susurrous allusion
with your diamond dents and abstraction
Kneading your mouth to my skin

loose like vapours dissolving into the colossal violet sky
So, I crave you” those are my favorite lines. They drew me in your words bound spell.
Ps: I love Mad girl’s love song by Sylvia Plath. So much talent.

I hear the struggle. I feel it to sometimes. At times more often than not even. Reading other people, discovering authors you didn’t know before may open your eyes to new ways of expression. I will find a few poems from authors I like and share them on my blog later this week. Maybe you will stumble upon things you will like and explore new poetic realms 😉
Ps: your words are beautiful, no matter what you feel right now, you just need to reconnect with yourself and you will see it too.
Hugs my talented friend!
