The Toxic Exotic

I chase careless twirls with my eyes,
as they merge with invisible mists,
they conspire in whispers
to capture my very soul.

my soul will belong to her,
the toxic exotic
she has stolen my reverie,
with baneful enticement.

my ruthless wonder has poisoned me,
there is no nostrum,
her breath is of musky inhalations
and a fragrance of fairy woods.

she renders me breathless, quick looks
with her bewitching brown gaze,
they have an unconventional glimmer,
la femme fatale has made me her willing prisoner.

Must I Choose?

I am torn, conflicted between one who is beside me and one that should be, I cannot decide. She is my anchor, speaks the words that comfort my heart. The other teases me, a fun loving heart they both make a perfect woman. But I must decide. Must I choose? She bats her eyes and I die, the other winks and my knees give way. Must I choose? She makes my heart faint with longing, The other cherishes me beyond what I can imagine, they both fill my heart with joy. If I part with her, I will die. If the other leaves me, my soul will be robbed of light. Must I decide? They both are the perfect woman. ~ Pandit. And so continues the emotional binge. Image: Diver From Beneath by Petr Kratochvil

By Words and Thought

day's end brings with it a silence that most nights remains broken only by words much like poetry and thought. into that lull I draw forth tableaux of times perhaps best left adrift on the troubled waters of auld lang syne. how viciously wounding though, the refusal of recollection, for at least in memory I can cherish you as once I did. and the inquietude of vast longing, frustration at time's lethargic pace, knows the kindest, though briefest, of stays.
