Sober Notions

by N J Thornton   Feb 13, 2007


Lurid tickles
of the red wine glass,
weave amidst
tomorrow's concerns.
Her poison,
toys with my sober notions,
and all is crystal.

My head will pound
in the morning.

*Short...and hopefully simple.

    "Her poison, "

    OMFG i love that line. It can be used in so many ways.
    Your poems are so short, but they are so meaningful. Very incredible. You have an incredible talent. Sooo much great and useful potential. You won't have any trouble finding a publisher.

    This is simple, and yet you still don't openly say what you are talking about, until the more obvious last two lines. You leave your poetry open for interpretation, that isn't always easy to do without completely confusing the reader. I like this poem, you use great words to describe everything and it really gets the reader feeling what you are talking about. Great write. 5/5
