Poet Destroyer A Poet Epic

Beauty and the Beast

~Chasing Bigfoot~

Across the Bayou Waters
Into vast trails of wilderness
I follow a sound, a sullen scent  
---footprints

He was out there,
hairy large and in charge

Drugs under the beastly moonlight 
Heavy torrents swept me in 
Deep, down and dark
Under a hidden den
Between the moon and stars
I gaze into a world unknown
A comparison of salt water and bonnets
Lord of the forest deep
Entrapped in a romantic secret sonnet

Over the corner in every shadow
Red Auburn hair, above a 12 foot pair
Daring to face the lone gallows
In one peek
I observe it was not made by men
The fear became excitement 
It offered a moment to think 
I don't know if it wants to injure me
It sniffs me repeatedly, 
Smearing my skin with his nose 
This type of behavior, this smell
Began to arouse my rose

Rough nails grip around my neck
Forest flavored lips 
Unravelling a taste unhuman
The touch erupts and fills me with fear
Still, I long to linger near

Sunrise starts with a grin
Revolving around the mood
Upon his long coat of shrooms 
Without fear I stroke his thick fur
Rough and sweet I repeat
Living or dying, I stay
To love the fear-driven inside

Day after day
Deep and gray, life fades
Then becomes elusive
11 years the sun hides
Dark eyes, hold me all night
This wild man, by the bedside
Cries from the woods before sunset
I follow----

Somewhere behind hidden walls
The woods stand tall 
Flowers welt from this burning love
My heart owned by the sasquatch
Though rapid dreams and streams, 
I scream
Of Big Foot and I

Gawaine Ross July 1, 2015 at 7:02 AM Linda, it's hard to tell if you saw a Bigfoot, or if this is a dream sequence, or imagination. I haven't read another poem about Bigfoot and never expected some erotic content. This is certainly original.

Max Corvus June 11, 2015 at 5:07 PM Well what to say, beastly beautiful.

Harry Horsman June 5, 2015 at 8:49 AM Captivated with this, wonderful poetry

Debbie Duncan June 1, 2015 at 3:54 AM I loved reading this :) There is a show on Tv called Searching for Bigfoot, those guys are so funny as they turn to the camera & say " did you see him" and they run off in the trees. My 8 yr old granddaughter watches with me :)

Probir Gupta May 23, 2015 at 7:22 AM The beastly beauty strays. I feel the entropy at play. Lovely expression :"Began to arouse my rose." Great!

Thomas Martin May 20, 2015 at 11:53 AM Excellent take on what I consider a difficult subject. Like your imagination!!
