Masque

by D.   Jan 1, 2019


You wear fangs
to kiss me,
to smile whilst
we do bad
things;

without us
you are but
a murmur
with a shy
laugh.

    So much in this poem, with so little. Incredible free verse.

    There is something instantly pleasing about opening a page and seeing a poem delicately formatted and so succinct in content, as Maple alludes to. Your work is always imaginative and is a cut above the vast majority of free verse on this site.
    Well done and all the best,
    Ben

    Well this has a depth and beauty that weighs heavy in each line, I love it!

    The elegance of a small poem that holds says more than words can express is what I like in a poem.

    The dark side of beauty, enhanced with a lady like glow, just beautiful!
