Bloody Mary's Black Labels

goth on the rocks

                              around the watering hole

                                 the black sheep flock

I'll have to tell you about my niece's goth wedding sometime - what a blast! I tend to gravitate toward the alternative types, (and Asians), but I've always been the black sheep of my fam, (big shock there, lol), and the fav uncle with my tats and gold hoop earrings, (out of style, I know). Getting a new half-sleeve soon, my design of decaying guitar turning to butterflies ... I'm going to write a poem and post the photo, I think. LOVE this write and fav-ing. Blessings! <3

Black lights, chains shimmering in the low light, swallowing ice over a pierced tongue listening to soundgarden's badmotorfinger! Love this poem!

Maureen, I'm not a deep reading fellow; in fact I tend to throw myself into other's poetry meaning my own meaning and not what was intended. I love the idea of Goths hanging out at a bar, and I suppose they are the black sheep of their family. We're you a red haired goth Maureen. All your wonderful tattoos, and getting to know you just from comments and conversational comments. To me this poem is solid. As it stands without intended meaning. 4-7-4 sylabically. I'm stupid. Did I miss the obvious?

Anthony? But you have always impressed me with your use, or should I say, lack of use of too many words. I've even been trying to mind my p's and q's. Wink wink...in this entire comment I never used the word "preposterous" or "quintessential" Always thanks Maureen.

Of course at the bar, the dancing. The goth days, red, blonde or black, mostly. No numerology, just my flow. I do appreciate the symmetry. I hope 'stupid' is isn't stupid as in toxic self talk. That's a beast. I'm tickled with this one. I hope Anthony likes it. I think writing small can have an element of a lot more hit or miss. Thank you Jeff!
