Visceral Poems | Examples


Visceral

Visceral

I don’t want to be Sati
I am not Savithri
Neither am I a ‘WIFE’
Who gets locked within me.

The love and lust were a voyage
When I enjoyed each moment
The fragrance of sindhoor and musk
Surrounded us, to wherever we flew.

The radiance is gone and fragrance is lost
Yet the heart yearns for a new picture
The bones hanker for a mate
A different name, shape and face

I shall live to the fullest of my soul
I shall love till I reach the horizon
I am waiting, praying and wishing
For you, my special friend- still unclear.

Sandhya T.P.

A torrent of emotional joy
Hazy sunlight and an opalescent sky
a cool breeze that rests gently
In mystical circles,
where the swing gently swings
a myriad of wings of song
This also sounds depressing.

perplexing ideas in my mind
Sun loungers replenish and revitalize
It was poured in the shape of barbed wire
The floods drive the rest away
Cleanse the fragile soil of hidden lies
Making bravery out of openness
Dragons raze dwellings.

I heard the murmurs under the bare twigs
While scratching the sky, tears flow
from the dismal, boulder-filled sky
Torrid foundation with fall-leaf stain
Love kept me going and bearing
That is all. I had grown up.
 
A sensual touch may be quite relaxing
surely exude timid shyness
People will admit advantage of you
to persuade you,
They truly helped

"Visceral" 

Beyond
the invisible

a farscape
much closer 
than great distance 
unacknowledged

silence calls
what waits
within
to listen 

something 
powerful 
visceral
beckons

you are not
the narrative
programmed 
into you

nor responsible
for perceptions
painted over
the unread in you

silence calls
what waits 
within
to listen 

something 
powerful
visceral 
beckons

beyond
the invisible
it watches
and it listens

standing 
firm in its 
own light 
and truth

the unacknowledged,
acknowledging
the unread 
in you

beyond 
the invisible

Premium Member Visceral Hues: Love

Breathless; I stood in the silence of dawn.
Her beautiful skyline framed silhouette 
had the earliest birds attention drawn.
Visceral love at first sight! Juliet?

Fathomless emotions within my chest.
With her green eyes and tenderness of touch;
her heart and mine became one love confessed!
Dark wind whipped hair heldfast; a silky clutch.

Morning twilights arrive in purer hues.
Whilst we long to keep each day from dwindling,
our flame is sustained by horizon views.
To hearts entwined, stars are only kindling.

Paths crossed one another, not being lead.
One love. One soul. Passion sewn in chance; thread.

My naked feet feel the slick, moist grass in the quiet park
                         as my fingers pluck and trace the soft edges of a flower petal.
                 My back is pricked as I lean against a spiked, tree trunk
           while my hand swipes off a sticky, delicate cobweb from my face.
       As I pull off the cobwebs, tree sap drops onto my hair
    penetrating my scalp, and I attempt to pull off it's gooey sap.
        Suddenly, I feel the thick, sandpaper lick of a dog's tongue 
            on my cheek, and I laugh, petting his fluffy fur with pleasure.
