I Called You Morpheus by ~Niphrendell:iconNiphrendell:



It has suddenly
come to my attention
that I've lost all the poems
that (you) I'd (n)ever
w(read.)itten for you
throughout
those Scorpian months
of autumn&winter.

I made you pretty
little spiderweb palaces
for your spirits,
now empty with cold
lanterns, vacant altars.

Brother Cerberus,

  dear Brother Cerberus,

   it's All Saint's Day.
(and no one is wasting well-written
  couplets on your memory)

If someone hurt you, guess what? You're in luck! If you want, I will gladly put hot coals under this boy's feet and make him walk over them.

Great poem.
Will read again when I am more coherent.

Nah, this happened a long time ago.
He's over and done with, hence the
All Saint's Day ref.
I just found some old poems
I'd written and thought, "Wow, I
can't believe I wasted such great
poetry on such a douche."

But I thank you kindly for you concern.

I love the range of that and the (c)reative use of parenthesis. Oh, and nice astrology reference
