Electra. Its Complex.
I'm ragingly infections with anger slipping from pore to poor and sweeping through the nations. an infraction of the highest nature its me against mother nature and all her denizens and demons her angels and angles all her green and gold and dank and mold and i am rank and wild a summers bouquet in the dead of night winters frost in autumns bite cutting crisp edges into the shadow and chewing the ice till my brain freezes over -- like a dark deep pool that sweeps and gurgles to itself in its small shelf of being pressing against these small shells that dream that they are a border on the salt sea and i am the mollusk in the pearly sheen that creeps and crawls and leaves its own sticky shine across the grey green mold. this burning acid that glows around me like a candlelight to start a forest fire and i am the rolling wheel that shatters and splinters and throws her brittle words into the air like icicles falling like rain collapsing from dreams to dust and muddying the ground in its brown blood and rolling and turning over and again a heaving mess of crust and cracking skin and flesh peeling and curling around my feet staining them red i, i look down and say thats a good colour for my nails. and go on calling out- life come out. come out and play. i want to see what you look like today. you haggard thing. withering corpse. what shall we play. and are there rules? i be the king you be the fool...not to your liking nothing ever is so come give your girl a kiss, i'm vicious and cruel and i learned it from you. aren't i darling, aren't i sweet? you're the one they're afraid to meet. i boil with rage and let you slide through i'm the one with a fever and they worry for you. i am death, life's daughter. and love was never mine.

there are a thousand incredible pictures in this, i swear it was like watching a slideshow that was going too fast because you wanted to stop and inhale every place you visited in that sentence
-but thats also what i love about this, the way you have to race through it. and then when i reached the end that last line made me laugh, :)
needless to say i LOVE the style with which you wrote this, the pictures that come up, the twisty phrases,
i love all of it.
need some clarafication on the title though, because im slow like that.
for memory's sake i suppose:
this was not only complex...but beauty...as that is beautiful IS and SHOULD BE. i love the quick tilt through so many thoughts at the same time. the duality of the pleasant tone as you want to play w/ life and then point out that it is naught but the shadow of itself...a corpse, so oxymoronic and clever was one of my favorite lines...
i shall now go over here and try to find my head....your poetry cut it off
member i said i only liked it if it was graphic.
you did this one good.
i can paint this imagery.
i can live this.
my mind spat out images when i was reading.
close to the top.
definately.
on my list.
