Lady Luck

Lady Luck ~ (the Nonet) Tears, shadows that swallow other tears united and out of control eyes decompose like soft coal water, in swimming hole everglade pistol celestial toll river pole dead soul pain ~~~~~ All over again, pause deep darken jaws engraved, digging claws deteriorating flaws still alive, eating what was waste, rain, disabling because nature lingers, emotional raw by;~~~ Nonet, 9 lines, beginning 9 syllables, then 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 syllable(s) ~ I hope~ for RICK'S contest...

I know what I like and I like this. Why ? I think because It is like scotch on the rocks ;Bitter but familiar and because it is familiar it is almost comfortable . It is also a little bit dangerous like scotch if you want to much. Keep on keeping on Linda. Your card should read Poems While U Wait !

Amazing, stunning and marvellous double-nonet! I'm speechles. The word choice is great as controoled with the syllables count. This must have taken a long time preparation. Enjoyed the flow. Looking forward to seeing further similar work of you, thanks for sharing. Love, Khalid.

ending perfectly, with "emotional raw"....each line of it is of raw emotion, and you wrote with excellence, as usual. :)

You have used the nonet and reverse nonet well in conveying someone who is without luck and feels down, out of place and hopelessness...Well written. Take care. Janet

Well titled! I'm reluctant to try the NONET as I'm sure mine wouldn't come out as fluidly as yours! Well done, dp! Best wishes, Keith

For some odd reason, I generally do not appreciate rhyming poetry, but this one really caught me eye. Your use of such vivid imagery made this work especially moving for me. Thanks for sharing. Ian
