Lady Labyrinth Poet Free verse

The Magnetic

"The Magnetic" 

Scarlet
pulls you covert in
now undercover
no need for 
stilettos

the undertow 
flows upwards
raising stakes 
and ropes
for a second coming

off-red lets go
indigo glows 
above the waterline 
diamonds sharp 
watch us, and we 

we are read 

the magnetic 
electric
draws us home

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)

Lady Labyrinth October 7, 2022 at 3:40 AM “I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.” No Time to Die
