Text-Poetry Marathon

Parrot

The fire rages and roars link no other

Unwilling to stay unborn, latent, unperturbed

Pandabear

Haha, laughs loud the fiend,

For he is heading to his end.

Parrot

The fiend and the fiendfire

The perpetrator and the sufferer

Pandabear

What art thou think that best maketh,

For in the game of love, many hearts breaketh.

Parrot

Thou art not a figment of imagination

My finest hour began but endeth with thee

Pandabear

In the happiest times that were wrought,

From the fairest Venice were the colours caught.

Parrot

Rejoicing on the outside my insides did burn,

Tut Tut! He chided me along the turn

Pandabear

Thoughts flooded in mind loft-like,

As the feet tickled in bed soft-like.

Parrot

These are but threads seamless,

Come, let us creep into this realm endless.

Pandabear

Exclaimed he to take her hands in huge halls,

While she smiled and made love against lovely walls.

Parrot

More than passion gleaned and sighed upon,

Is the beam of the hope lovelorn

Pandabear

Suffering destroys, and self is destroyed,

Born again from the ashes with hope rebuoyed.

Parrot

From dust it shall rise and bound

It may lose its faith in the ground

Pandabear

Lose faith and disbelieve if you must,

But the flight rests its wings in good trust.

Parrot

My treasure and my heart at the same place,

I would rest until the day's last trace.

Pandabear

Abandon all the haughty,

Begin to love the naughty.

Parrot

Naughty is naught but a little smug

He beseeches me for my own drug

Pandabear

Like a spirit on my mind with ease he pranced,

Seductive was the whole talk as if I was tranced.

Parrot

He called me enchantress but nay

Searching for his scent in darkness I lay

Pandabear

The zephyr was gently cold,

We curled around and rolled.

Parrot

Smokeless was his gaze, liquid and limpid

Sucked into a daze, I saw colours myraid.

Pandabear

Amused and happy was the Muse even,

For the songs were deep when given.

Parrot

Every song had the trickster's touch

But he turned sombre, forever too much

Pandabear

Eyes had to be deceived with tricks,

For you would never have known the pain of pricks.

Parrot

I line my eyes with more black

They shall never know what they lack

Pandabear

Smokey eyes did never reveal the crime,

They were not masked but mastered all the time.

Parrot

I could drink a little hemlock

Get lost in my trickster's scent

Pandabear
Why must I live on
In this love forlorn?

Parrot

Thy love enriched the parched

Bestow thy beauty, O bounteous!

Pandabear
Aphrodite smiles over us,
As we look for reflections.

Parrot

Ensnared by his coiled charms

I held on to the last, insane thread

Pandabear
Lean fingers strikes the harp,
Playing the music of the heart.

Parrot

Flows and pulsates, this rhythm

Miles across where I come from

Pandabear
Miles away yet thy sweet fragrance stayed,
Our togetherness for eternity was what I prayed.

Parrot

The wait was long, the sun was setting,

Melting the colours the dusk did the painting

Pandabear
Painting spoke a million thoughts,
For too long were those kept in naughts.

Parrot

Churl the hues for me when I come,

Claim the darkness distraught with the lonesome

Pandabear

Let's make love in the realm of darkness,

And hope to see the rays of sweetness.

Parrot

The sweetness smiles with your guile

I touch it, the fleeting promise of the nile

Pandabear
By the shore, we stole kisses,
And jumped over pebbles and hisses.

Parrot

May this flowing water never end

Break the barriers, let the world condescend!

Pandabear
 What business have we with this world?
Our universe is far far away pearled.

Parrot

It could all but come crashing down,

In a universe parallel we'd erase the brown

Pandabear
Mortal lives can be crushed to dust,
Immortal consummation shall forever be must.
