Poem

Sharp Ivory Brushes

Sharp ivory brushes my torso
Pain, but pleasure’s persistent
A flash of boredom that coinsides
With 
Saliva and other 
Suspitions.
Answers lay just beyond
Splashes of color and
Juxtaposed likenesses
My squealing snout hides me
And my pink flesh exposes
But covered with fiery illusion
From days in a ring of fire
My voice illudes as inconceivable 
As it is
I illogically continue
Desbite negative notions
Thrashing in dark waters
A serpent lies in wait
Biding time, to set me straight

Beata Agustin Date: 3/12/2026 11:09:00 PM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Don't know what other websites u have written for or shared your poetry but I believe you will find this a lovely new home! Personification is very tricky and I often have to work at it intensely..could u tell me what object is being personified bc I am a lil slow to catch on. Love some of your phrases..well, let me know. Have a warm and sunny day. Finally NO RAIN! Gwendolen
