Fugitive

I wanted in my poetry cup
Neither fixed heat nor cold
Sought just to raise it up
Close to your hair gold

No centre is required to write
A poem of beauty or struggle
Rather a fugitive’s might
To bring out those lovely bubbles

We live mostly in thoughts
Of pictures and colors various
Trying to untie the knots
To unleash your eyes hilarious

This is a fugitive world
At the margin of the bell curve
When it is fruitfully unfurled
There is a dance in your nerve

Were there no fugitive thinkers
To mix dream with the reality
No poetry would ever shake the drinker
To draw you close to me

It is an asset dear friend
That the words are my companion
Yes I swerve from the mainstream no doubt
And pursue my pen in abandon

And the result is fresh morning
Green leaves and sometimes bouquets
Many a time they come adorning
Fugitively orange days

What an entrancing poem. Your metaphorical fugitive is absolutely true for us poets ... we are victims to the puppet strings of our muse! "Trying to untie the knots to unleash your eyes hilarious" "Yet I swerve from the mainstream no doubt and pursue my pen in abandon" ... a lot of unusual phrasing here, written in your own unique voice. That's how poetry progresses methinks, by pushing the envelope on what's considered "normal" ... awesome first place win! I enjoyed it a lot.
