Winter's Empress




             Her adorned stars, crackling overhead 
                    like embers in a fireplaced 
       -sweat-stones of heavenly sky lodge.
 The bottomless pit of lipstuck warp ighs, 
battlement of the sexes  steaming spit spits at love's visaged, mirage visitage lie?

Above the facade of 
balanced return of ph-balanced heart- equilibrium, 
and it's burn of totem-storm enroute in per diem, 
deity, absolution.
Beneath the atmosphere, 
a fire in everence-melt or a freeze of winter pelt.
Mounds to bury the shamanic bones of Summer.
Memoric storehouses for the disloyalties of Autumn.

Pregnant Winter's cryobreath tear of sympathetic 
waters, in per diem. 
Spring's residuals, freeze framed, 
like a memory to pass you again by, fingerprint, 
ghosts in a lineup of most wanted in encore cast, 
drive-by.
Her fingerprint of notorious notables,
now self-aware elementals with walking-vapors.
The clearinghouse of the seasons of infidelity.
Here is where she throws out your things as notary totables.

Your free wheeling lifestyle (lovers turnstyle), 
boarding pass, mountain passes, rosey outlook, 
she throws the book.
Writes a chapter of her own niche, nook, hook, scrawl.
Flightless feathers of the winds,
free to heap their drift against the walls.

Lodgings, staged of cosmic dusts.
Connect Lite Brite sconce a dots to get your message, acrost.

"Oh for heaven's sake, do I have to do everything, 
myself!?

The Frigid Queen, pregnant, bloated sky- pending, 
bow 'Incending, each snowflake like a tendril 
with fevered lye, of polarity in necromancy, translation , bubbleyes-Trireme hydra war party- 
alacritous-petrichordic eye of verses unique 
fingers you for support at the courting belle's ring.

Medusaic antennae, addered addage 
to linger cryobreath tear and keep pure your hunger, rugged durability, near
for her strike of goosebumps, lovebites, 
shuddered grunt inducing sheet player piano 
of silence and sympathetic for waters 
dumped, entombed as priests to petal themselves 
like a forever 
with a prize confetti lever flash of bust,
her storehouses of Winter, 
frostinged toast of cold lips-cumulant dressssss, 
capsule of time, wind's featherling- orphaned kiss,
 wings of her climactic weather to ride-
In boasts of her precipice scorn, prejudiced, 
to tether loose off spring heir born, 
whether or not you are warmed to her circumstances. 
You receive her, you take your chances as you breathe in her air apparent, apparel's curacomb covering her electrum advances.

Another epic write! Your poem is a kaleidoscope of poetic brilliance, weaving together a tapestry of seasons and emotions with dazzling imagery and linguistic acrobatics. The opening lines, with 'adorned stars crackling overhead like embers in a fireplaced,' set a celestial and atmospheric tone, immediately drawing the reader into a cosmic dance.
