A Maiden's New Year (poem) by storypoet(m): 1:47am On Jan 01, 2019 |
The season arrived again
In its busy wind
Clashing bud against bud
In its fury movement
I have likewise been shaken by the season
‘Cause I salute the young year with my shrill cry
With a river of tears
Drowning my maiden face like the Titanic
How will I suckle a baby in my virgin breast?
Fatherless child of a living father
How will I bear my shame to Mama
Who is my baby fatther
Solo?
Jerry?
Jeff?
I was their season’s ride
Solo first tore my innocence
That cold night, my back was on the rustic grass
His strength above me
Danced the melody of crickets
And the moon above us was the torch bearer
His thrusts soaked me in a pool of blood and tears
While his promises were a heavy
Downpour in a harmatarn night
I will buy you motor
I will buy you chocolate
I will buy you an elephant
Promises my eyes never met
It was a painful pleasure
That turned me into an Oliver Twist
And Jerry’s bait caught me
And likewise did I find my back on the grass
For Jeff
It all did not exceed the seventh day
And I drowned in my own pool of shame published on the following link https://storypoet.com/2019/01/01/a-maidens-new-year/ |
