"Escalating the Muse"
Written on the body passive complacence stretches sharp ink etched pain in the soul then real beauty from the Book of Truth, a page moored in transparent skin
;
Black, tattooed ceremonially on the tongue speaks diaphonous Freedom Written on the body stretches stories ripped and tall, they are torn, a small revolution amongst the crowds of alphabet coding in a tight sealed tin akin to a Can of Campbell’s Soup Escalates the Muse Written in the body a work of art, beautiful, pure and stubborn centred, dirt muddied yet, clean stripped, balanced for the Laymen betwixt Papillon folded Wings, en stasis, looks through the Chrysalis towards the you in gilded story the Higher requires analyses, there She thinks, writes the Muse tattooed on the tongue

My friend, there is a quality in your poems show you write on a plane cast into the golden heavens. Such word-smithing awes me to my poor and humble poetic bones! And in that realm, you seems to easily control immense depths of power as well. A gem , a beauty, and a great fav too...

My friend I can only speak that which my poetic heart feels when reading your poetry. Methinks you underestimate its impact upon lovers of true poetry that has depths, wisdom and message..

now now Lindley, your writing is "Divine"; that is way too kind and beautiful a comment to throw my way. My writing pales in comparison to your superior thoughts and words. Thank you for your kind-hearted words. Leanne x

Your muse is even more theatrical than my muse! " Written on the body stretches stories ripped and tall, they are torn, a small revolution amongst the crowds of alphabet coding in a tight sealed tin akin to a Can of Campbell’s Soup" In full force you march toward an inner truth.

"Truth" is surely the Agenda worth pursuing in all creative works, including life. Thank you Mme K.

the voices that whisper in our minds are formed by the minutes lived and are painted with the knowledge that renders our understanding of the color of sanity so the world can find the path of our muse as it uses words to describe the journey...the reader can make their own conclusions... my first thought after reading... my true friend

Writing, after all, is the Higher Self speaking words to us, surely? One should always listen to that higher power that exists in prisms of Light and Dark within all of us. Always, despite the white noise emanating from the maddening crowd. "IT" leads the way, always. Herr Parker, as per past parlez, your steadfast friend, Leanne.

Everyone is on their own journey towards discovering their Muse, with their own words, thoughts and deeds ... in their own way.

I am standing with people, I am walking with them, friend. It is not for me to lead. People have to follow their own hearts and journeys, write and live their own stories - as it has already been set for them. Dante's story is well worth the read. Your friend, Leanne.x
