"Soul Sketch"

A soul sketch of a silent desire
Can be as intimate as love
Or as cold as death
This is a night before
When the heart is empty of delight
Happiness I wanted to say…
In front of the fire
Whispering…cracking sticks
Stripping bark into straws
But it isn’t about happiness
Or a dream to build kisses from
It’s about the imagination
A soul sketch of a silent love
It’s a sketch of a poets mind
A poet’ love and passion
And the free flow of her pen in words
About her emotions… her love… and desire
Sketched in the dark corners of her soul
It’s not about happiness
But the intimate sketch
Of her spirit deep
Whispering… cracks… raw
But with a beauty
Deep within

Your words so wonderfully match and highlight your sketch here that it is hard to decide which must have come first the sketch or the poem. Either way it is a work of art. Well done.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
