Nectar

[mab]

A star is plucked from the sky:
Black hole,
as a child sings to the moon,

The space is filled
And dazzles the night.

Drifting in and out of consciousness,
The lotus nectar spills.

A world of hallucination
And free sex.

A pussy cat licks her parts
On a bed of feathered down.

Vast, the Universe;
Inconceivable.

Entwined in carnal enterprise,
Love does not exist.

Coming down,
Reality breaks the rising sun.
The mind reels out of touch.

Looking up, we live in an orb,
Spinning, spinning in space
Along with my eyes.

Sweet intoxication.
Do you hear its music?

It's perfectly acceptable. Thank you so much for the compliment. The line... 'your pain, my delight' especially strikes me. I bet you could weave another poem around with those words as inspiration. :D

it would be, that phrase i mean.... i've been
trying to spit out a poem like that for so long,
about how my joy lives from others pain for so
long.

but i get lost and stuck inbetween things like
what is sociallbly acceptable and socially wrong.

what is good, and what is flat out evil.

etc.

for example, is it right to even feel joy when someone is executed by capital punishment for being
responsible for the deaths of others, or have we gotten so stuck up as a society, that we can't
even understand that some things DO need to be
punished, even if in a manner of cruelty, by
all people willing to condemn?!

sorry if thats ranty... i hope you understand though.. just, you struck a chord with me, because
that trully is something i WANT to write, i just
cant *yet*

I hope this link works, if not then cut and paste. I have a poem similar to what you are looking for.

It seems like you have several ideas that you'd like to explore with your poetry. You ought to try doing some writing exercises, like word association and basic scrawls about what issues bug you. That will give you plenty of content to create from. I wish you luck. Feel free to email me at qumabh@gmail.com if you want to talk poetry.
