Tea time (revised)

Chocolate chili fingers the sun
whilst warmed honey streaks
orange marmalade drips
into his blaze
creating quivering mass's of segments
melting to pooled sticky syrup,
vibrating ambivalently above; 
 

sweet  vanilla moon
getting her kicks from 
violet creams caresse's
while burnt coffee stroke's
blueberry tickles with whispers
into jellied ears,
beings of the twilight
taste each other 

The maid squeaks
watching;  guests suckling dribbled honey finger tips
soon to ravish
and quieten her sueaks

Hi Vicki

Sounds like quite a tea-time spread round yours lol. Despite some interesting and powerful images you have created in the poem its does not gel for me quite as it should. Your ingredients, as it were, did not end up baking the perfect cake. If I go through it verse by verse: In the first verse I feel the second line jars and for me it is an uncomfortable image of burnt streaks of mustard that just does not compliment the more succulent first and third lines. The last two lines might also be slightly re-arranged to flow better and I assume the first line of the next verse was supposed to be part of it: How about: Chocolate chili fingers the sun orange marmalade drips into his blaze creating quivering segments pooled into sticky syrup, vibrating ambivalently. In the next verse again a small amount of pruning can assist the flow Getting her kicks sweet vanilla moon's violet cream caresses while burnt coffee strokes and blueberry whispers trickle into jellied ears as twilight beings taste each other. And finally the last verse falls away rather and needs a rethink in my opinion...especially the last line. May be: The watching maid squeaks, her guests sucking dribbled-honey finger tips, their ravishing cries feeding her alarm with sticky smiles and jam-streaked lips. sorry got a bit carried away there with those remembered tea-time debacles lol. Anyway hope this is of some help. Best wishes Keith
