Spells Antarctic

 Shell electric, yell, oh yellow girl,
you’ve pearl swirls on your back, curl
bolts inside electrocuting me to you,
you to me, then shock echoes back, me to you.

Spells Antarctic, snow, oh snowbow girl,
you’ve sleet furled to your hair, twirl
blizzards inside glaciating us over, igloo’d,
you’re beneath me, chills fixed froze, me above you.

Swell Atlantic, rain, oh rainsloe girl,
you’ve breakers impearled along your face, hurl
beads inside deluging past organs and bones, blue
splashing out our mouths; butterflies spill me into you.





(love poem, by the way.)

This is very moving.  It seems to build - in power, in feeling - all the way until the last punctuation point.  And those last few words... 'butterflies spill me into you'... That is just pure perfection.


This is very beautiful.

It's the rhythm, all the way the rhythm carries it forward, and forward, and forward.


I guess rhymes are good from time to time.

I was trying to make it lovely..it's hard, writing love poetry for some reason. I usually hate it because it seems too cliché.. I'm glad you thought it was alright. :)

I'm usually so avoiding of rhymes...and when I do use them, I try to make them sort of jumpy and seemingly inconsistent; I hate generic ABAB or AABB poems...you know? I'm also really glad you noticed the rhythm. :) I tried to make it seem kind of musical on its own.

I am somewhat unipolar and regard most of everything in my life on some level of unremarkable-ness... if you can understand that.. and the feeling that this poem pulled out of me was kind of chaotic for my mind, which is so used to all emotions of nonchalance - like how your body reacts when you have an anxiety attack out of nowhere and your heart starts beating incredibly fast...

I am so
something
I can't even describe it
It's remarkable.
And only the top ten list of things I would wish for if I could, I would put this poem in a needle into my veins because this poem is all life,
and I am so not life.
And this poem
Breathes life,
into me.
