Taint me Homebread;; the scattered thoughts of a Painted Lady

Anzel's picture
Do you know me
Or do you

I watch the moth flutter, dangling
Helplessly
In that web
Strung on a string with a
Teardrop
Spun at the end
Swirled forever, it hasn't stopped
In ever
And the swirling curls its long daintless fingertips to the
Choke
And leaves her
Gaspless
Her wings is tears and tatters
As the venin creeps up to give her a kiss
On the neck
Like demise
Is met by
Day after day
In the same eternal way
As the
Flutter

And you watch me
And you think you know me
Flower
And you see me
And you dangle your string 'round
Higher
But my expectations run low
On a string tied around my neck
In tight-noosed
Chains
And let-loosèd
Pains
Well you won't have
Me

But who am I to
Who am I
To say
Welcome home
Or welcome near
My humble abode
Of unwelcome
Heart

And she's clasping
Gasping
For air
But I cannot breathe
Her in

Was.

Fun.

OMG I love free-verse <333 Yes, there are multiple hidden meanings in this poem.

One of them is that Taint is actually thinking her thoughts about Plume. Querious, huh?

... I'm not sure I really

...
I'm not sure I really understand this...
But it sounds... negative...


Taint... was it something I said before..?
I'm sorry...


But that's a beautiful poem...


Mae is confused.
^^;
Plumey, let her think her thoughts. You have to respect them, too.

Plumeria, they're

Plumeria, they're philosophical ramblings and queries, don't worry. She never said an insult, she simply doesn't know you well enough, and likely never will. She's thinking something like, "You won't trick me...I won't fall for your tricks..."

It's not meant to be unkind. She just doesn't trust anyone, as you have known for a while. You confuse her a slight bit, heh.


Sticking out tongue No offense is meant by her. She was just wondering things.

Oh... Allright. ^^;;; Thank

Oh... Allright. ^^;;; Thank you, Anzel, but I still wonder.
Oh, Taint, I wish you could trust me... But trust is not a simple thing, I know that.
It's still a wonderful poem, though... It makes you think...


Oh, I've got to go now. Tomorrow, then. Smiling
