~ CANCEROUS ~ (Dblankportraits brevity challenge)

~ CANCEROUS ~ (Dblankportraits brevity challenge)

          Ladder the earth
          Scorched mind
       In all imitation's intent
           I thread the eye
             of needless
                viscera,
                 vomit
                a snake's
                  decay...

              Tony Taylor

Tony
Have been visiting your page everyday to keep myself updated with ur new write ups
Speechless, stoked, blown away with this concept u picked up ?????
please correct me if im going off track but your intent was to reflect on how much fakeness there is all around and how a good soul is able to gage this and endeavours to segregate themselves from the poisoned negativity by leaving behind the carcass like a snake sheds its superficial skin.

For me its really important to understand the intent behind every poem i read as it really helps me grow and connect with the person whose work im reading.

Extremely well picked, well executed, well delivered.
? off !!!

WOW!! CHARU!!...what an outstanding comment!!.....I am humbled at your having spent some time on my page and come forward in earnest with pristine curiosity at my specific intent on this write!!...... your interpretation is the VERY reason I write poetry..because..... for me.......in delivering freestyle poetry the idea is to deliver the broad strokes...... thereby allowing the reader the room to color the idea in their own minds eye .......you HAVE however touched upon a part of the intent behind this write which, in its heart ~ "I thread the eye, of needless, viscera.." attempts to speak to the cancer in life itself and its ability to corrupt by eating away at the innermost workings.  I am so flattered and seriously humbled at how intensely your  curiosity drives you on your journey into the heart of poetry......I am proud to call you a cyber-friend!!...... Apologies for the late reply CHARU!!......feel free to PM me with anything else!!.....I think I still I owe you a reply there anyway!!...... been a little under the weather lately!!..... talk soon!!....... stay cool!!.......T xo ??✴?✴?

Hi Tony
its an honour to read your work.
Its much much deeper this concept than I thought it to be. Really speechless now. 
This is poetry at its depth

Cherie mentioned you were a bit crooked healthwise. Praying for your health everyday. Not long before you guys get into the nuptial side of things.
Exciting n daunting at the sametime.
Countdown has almost begun

will b in tch via messaging tool xx

My Dear Tony,

I recoil as I read the words of the Serpent
I pass on "The Apple", but do ingest his intent

Love,
