Taken, Possessed

"Taken, Possessed"
I’d kiss those scars Trace them with my warm breath All the way up both paths To where King Stamen stands erect and Star tipped towards my shining jade moons dark lit Kiss him where a glistening pearl drop Waits wet and haunted Ready to be mesmerised Sibilant and silent he whispers Lay it upon me And so too, I grant that wish, he's wilfully taken Scars in his mind dissolving kissed in kind his crown now all mine He now reigns me in, My Blue Sky Possessed (LadyLabyrinth/2020)

to be of a mind to dance with one's mind and guide them with images that lead to the imagination's realm of shades, could that this dance be real or mire fantasy that fills the chalice to overflow and spill upon the earthen floor of time where expectations have already been swept away with the last drop of reality...a quiet smile dear poet

I fear dear Bard, I have progressed or submitted to Charles Baudelaire, "Les Fleurs du mal"...with particular interest, 6 poems that were banned....I am possessed and have been swept away with the last drop of reality...

You've got a titch of Geogia O'Keefe going on in your choice of photos. It follows through in several of your lines. The title could just as easily have been, "Given." Nice writing.

Yeah adore Georgia O'Keefe. Her relationship with Stieglitz fascinating...and a touch of D.H. for inspiration. Her Lawrence Tree painting an inspiration from the Forest. You've got me pegged...err pinned. I thought maybe "Possessed" for the title, regards Love Joy Bee before C. Thanks Lin.
