Huh?

 

An index fingernail taps

Porcelain, truculent

 

Systemic evanescent;

 

A scent twists violent

With a blue-purple candle’s light;

 

The momentary darts downhill

Slim-brown, blurred breathless;

 

Dry wine bleeds

Quite curious …

 

And, surprised,

She whispers keen contingent,

 

Oval plangent,

Blushing lips conforming tense:

 

"Huh?"

sultry

smoky, and smooth. I would love to hear that you wrote this in red ink, and I do not know why. But I know what I like, and I like this. Mark W.

you

have an incredible command of language--this poem makes you hear, sound, and taste wine all at the same time. you seem able to paint with what you write, in this odd way. excellent job!
