Topic: Birthday of Lorelei A. Abrigo (September 15)
Form: Vertical Monocrostic
In sandy dunes on my back I lie
Dreaming of warm beaches, blue sky
And a girl named Lorelei
On memories I fly
War seen from on high
I vow to try
Not to cry
As I
Die
Written November 5, 2019
For the Rhyming Nonet contest.
See how the lowly myrtle
seduces the lordly pine.
She entwines her arms
around him, he
submits. Beneath them
falls their issue: not
flesh, nor sinew, nor bone,
Only, sweet symmetrical
cone, its perfect whorls
and burls, the best
of both worlds.
Women can watch the surf roll in
For hours at a time it seems
Their gaze is locked so far afield
Are they looking inside their dreams?
Or do they feel ancestral tugs
Pulling them into the sea
Like seamen hear the Lorelei
Choir of Catastrophe?
Could it be a lunar cycle
Linked to astrology
Which helps them feel as one with earth
And no need at all for me?
A ruddy tide strained
silting a dying whisper
salty knotted hair swirled
tainting the sweetness of november
A dark elegy, a classic
of true love betrayed
selfless love perpetrated
an agonizing malaise
Consumed by grief
lost to the lovemaking of june
ebullient eyes now stoic
fixed by the calling of the moon
Holy vows broken
scattered upon the ebb and flow of the sea
whose lies silenced autumn's resurrection
the listless Lorelei
The night has befallen me
Rescue me, unchain me
Sacred Lorelei
Bleeding a passion of royalty
Forever I'll follow your Argentine cloak
with the most deadly pacts
beautiful Witch
Sacred Lorelei
Tell me did the ravens Hear my cry
My misery's plea
Sacred Lorelei
Was this all just upon a dream
Lucidity becoming reality
of my Sacred Lorelei
A fiat of darkly desire
from a most beautiful witch
unchaining the burden of my misery
All for my
Sacred Lorelei
