Toxic Tainted Love
Tainted Toxic Love
Toxic love, tainted and tethered
Apocalyptic amore of evil proportions
InfatuatedāIām infected by you
You got in my blood
Under my skin
Youāre inside my head
My brainās in a spinā¦
An infectious flood
Itās time to begin
I open real wide
And let you come in
Mushroom clouds weathered
Alabaster anathema
wracked by contortions
Iām radioactive
What are my options?
Death comes in a rush
Pus āneath my skin
My brain's turned to mush
I know I canāt win
Weāve both screwed the pooch
Weāve eaten the cat
My bloodās full of hootch
I like it like thatā¦

mellifluous, playful and a delight to read, it feltĀ effortlessly written; not sure why perhaps your confidence comes through so much, it really is a pleasure to read, good poetry writing, enjoyed....thanks for sharing
I've been writing for many years, Christopher. I also participate in poetry slams and contests in coffee houses all over Cincinnati and the tri-state area.
There, you're required to perform your poetry live, by memory, in front of an open mic and live audience.
That's more than likely where the confidence comes into play.
I appreciate you taking an interest in my work.
I'm very grateful for your feedback.
