The Siren Sergeant -

One day while marching 
on the road to madness
I fell in love with a woman
known as sadness,

she rode up on the shore
glazed in sapphire honey,
knowing no mercy
slapping the land,
forgiveness in her thought,
studed destruction in her hand,

our wit and sheilds calashing,
the battle a draw - together - 
we as one collapsing to the sand,
we engaged in hot behavior
but the game was always in her favor -

Elizabeth Wesley Date: 1/3/2013 6:20:00 AM Wouldn't we all love to be sirens, to be that irresisible force that conquers the odds, and have men grovelling at our feet. Ah well, I'm not realistic too often but my nether world has its purpose. Thanks for the dream Justin, a wonderful start for the new year.

Jonas L. Rozario Date: 10/23/2012 9:09:00 AM Very nice... thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Love the last stanza...women always wins I guess. Awesome stuff. Thank you for stopping by my page. Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/23/2012 11:31:00 AM This piece is like a hovel in my poetic architectual repertoire but it has much import in regards to my youth - sometimes hovels & huts provide much comfort - I am pleased that you like the spice of it Jonas - J.A.B. %

Poet Tacito Date: 10/21/2012 11:46:00 PM An unlucky roll of the dice...? Fantastic imagery here! Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/22/2012 6:28:00 PM I have never been unlucky Drake, but sometimes I've been too ignorant to realize how lucky I've been - I haven't lost the game, its just in her favor my friend - the imagery and skill in this piece are simple but also rich in ways, I appreciate your compliment - J.A.B. %

Sara Kendrick Date: 10/21/2012 1:41:00 PM Sadness or depression is not good company for sure..I like the way that you expressed the topic..Very creative and descriptive work...Thanks for stopping by..I have finished my work "Luna" now if you care to read it..Sara Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/22/2012 6:31:00 PM I certainly will revisit Sara - sadness & depression are actually very efficient paths to enlightenment for those disinclined to wallow in those profitable states of mind - J.A.B. %

Sandra Adams Date: 10/18/2012 7:04:00 PM passion and sadness always seem to go together and it always appears as if the other has the upper hand...i enjoyed this write and loved the images in the second stanza! Nicely penned! Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/19/2012 6:01:00 PM One tends to follow the other, and unfortunatley, sadness typically has the longer life span because passion makes such an intense and ephemeral appearence in our lives Sandra - J.A.B. %

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/18/2012 2:32:00 PM I like that. Sadness as a hot merciless woman! you are so right, many times it all ends in sadness. I really enjoyed this one from you. Your title is cool too! (I enjoyed your term for my last poem as using "misdirection.") Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/19/2012 5:57:00 PM As you well know Andrea poetry is a science along with being a divine art - mischevious women are always hot, and Sirens are the epitome - J.A.B. %

Wilma Neels Date: 10/16/2012 1:30:00 PM Justin, you held my attention from the word go. Absolutely enjoyed your write tonight, love the title you chose ;) Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/17/2012 1:54:00 PM She held my attention too Wilma - thanks for the love - J.A.B. %

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 10/15/2012 6:07:00 AM Justin it is well written, but soooo sad. - Have a lovely new week! - oxox Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/15/2012 8:29:00 AM No Yasmin, I am happy because I trust in my myself - this poem and Premenstrual Syndrome are experimental pieces in rapid free association writing for me - I think they have value - Calashing is not a word, its actually onomatopoeia - J.A.B. % Justin Bordner Date: 10/15/2012 8:23:00 AM Well Anne, we had something to give to each other - J.A.B. %

Laura Breidenthal Date: 10/14/2012 11:00:00 PM Brilliantly penned---as usual, my friend. Enjoyed every bit of this decadent poem. ^^ Careful on that road to madness--it's a bumpy trail... :S Always, Laura Login to Reply Justin Bordner Date: 10/15/2012 8:36:00 AM Thank you so much Laura - I was born in madness, its a tail I've treked forever, and it always has something to give - sometimes the trail is erriely calm too - J.A.B. %
