In a Pique

In these deep woods, poetry brews rich dark
Like dark coffee, acidic on tongue_ cheek 
I could say deep dark remarks on tales embark
Write poem, for you have put me in a pique

From the deep dark forest draw ravens black
Let them feed upon your brain's carrion
For it is dead, vile, let them eat your flack
Your cadaver brain is barbarian

Refined gracious lady keeps loving
Her spirit turns blind eye to all faults
Nearly all faults_learning to be accepting
Even when bombarded with rash insults


These dark, dark woods forgive your wrong thinking
Though in heart it's impact still affecting

finis

I enjoyed this immensely Mrs. Sara. I think we can relate. I digress though, one experiences things differently from another. I think the first two lines in the first stanza are my favorite, though it is all extremely well written. Thank you for sharing.

An amazing write with elegant metaphors. Morning shows the day. It will be a fascinating poem when finished. As always your heartwarming comments on my poem Heart's Desire are profound and thought provocative. I am impressed by your sensibility and vision. What you say about the quality of love is so true. Dear Sara you are great. -Mohammad
