girls with glasses

behind the frames...

realized at the point

of shante-ing the big girl draws on

nevertheless I become innately afraid of myself when I do 

prone to choose the safeness

of pure cotton paths

when keeping the feline spectacles in place

but then I'm urged to loosen one braid then two

or appease lurking beneath close cropped hair

riles warmth within the glands

especially when the savvy taunts the negative

slather the silver chrome glaze

from the cases highly favorable

strangely tailored to highlight my lips 

having the decency to at least steer

from the seventh combination

there's no turning back

if relinquished....sharing the raw and spectacular

cause it'll be climbing

and tickle the shy part of my legs

advancing until the fine hairs salute

inching

teetering up my spine

and then MUSHROOM clouds

but I won't....I won't disclose it all

thank the goodness of the LORD

and even more for the preservation of the frames

Amazing use of the language. Made the place and feeling of joy come alive for the reader.
"cause it'll be climbing
and tickle the shy part of my legs
advancing until the fine hairs salute

teetering up my spine
and then MUSHROOM clouds"
The above line. Better than good. Thank you Shirlena for sharing the amazing poetry.

Oh images of librarians stripping their clothes off in my head. I'm so tickled by some of your phrases pen'd here, 'fine hairs salute'...ha now that conjures up all kinds of imagery, love Mushroom clouds teetering up your spine....oh my. Reading 'tween the lines I think I might need a ciggie right about now. You released the kraken in this one. ;-)

Behind the frames a see the temptress, highly favorable feline, lips of decency, the raw and spectacular who is innately afraid to step out from the frames. We have a frame of mind and a literal frame...Bravo.....

Thank you Sam...you've been MIA lately but thank you for making me one of your stops Mr. Question, have you by any chance read the poem I wrote in response to your request because I've been waiting for you to read it :). You are the one who put the idea in my head.

[Sami Khalil]
