Sartoris asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 1 decade ago

Does this poem rock or suck?

A picture of her,

with kissing lips.

I feel her lips touching mine,

Her tongue,

teasing mine...just a picture.

A picture of her,

and I want to touch her cheek,

run my fingers through her hair,

see her eyes look deep into mine..

Just a picture,

and I feel her breath,

hot and sweet against my neck,

softly biting, tongue teasing....

a kiss...soft skin...fingers in her hair,

kissing lips, finger nails clutch my back,

Just a picture of her and kissing lips,

and sighs, maybe whimpers, movement

shallow, shallow, deep,

shallow shallow deep deep,

kissing lips and sighs,

fingernails scratching my back....

A picture of her

and kissing lips,

and so far away

but,

I feel it still...

    i think it's really good. some people may dislike some of the repetition, but i think it serves to drive the tempo and get it under your skin, almost like the bells by poe. it actually made me breathe a bit faster as i was reading along.

    Reminds me of an old J. Geils hit:

    My blood runs cold

    My memory has just been sold

    Angel is the centerfold

    Angel is the centerfold

    Funning aside, it's a decent poem, and captures the power of what one picture can do. I think the shallow, shallow... thing tries too hard and is basically just TMI. Keep writing, though.

    "shallow, shallow, deep,shallow shallow deep deep" sounds funny to me. lol.

    I understand the message but some words are overly repeated.

    The repetitive words suck but the message rocks.
