I wrote this last night but didn't want to break a forum rule by posting too many poems at once.
Enjoy my loves. <3

Skewed Mind

Genius at brilliance
Impudent towards mannerisms.
Arrogance to self success.
Melancholy over succumbed death.

No thought before action.
No words spoken before emotions.
Speech drifts away in an abstract sense.
More body language detestation.

Tick tock of the cranium.
Bombs erupting in your mind.
Metronomes are swaying.
A concrete mobile perpetuating in your cerebrum.

Meditation of the soul
Reek of the bad spirit.
So once again the mind that was once skewed
can rise like a Phoenix from the ashes.


OMFG

succumed and success sound very nice together there, very poetic.

No thought before action.
No words spoken before emotions.

I like how it's sort of transitioning through the phases of how humans function. We Think, we act, we speak and feel. Then when you say "no thought before action" it relates back to the title well.

Speech drifts away in an abstract sense.
More body language detestation.

Tick tock of the cranium.
Bombs erupting in your mind.

AWESOME metaphor

Metronomes are swaying.
A concrete mobile perpetuating in your cerebrum.

The last line throws your flow off a little bit. the repeated "ing" ending does sort of have a beat to it though.

Meditation of the soul
Reek of the bad spirit.
So once again the mind that was once skewed
can rise like a Phoenix from the ashes.

Nice ending.
Great poem!

Thank you so much Courtney.
You don't know how much that means to me.
The third stanza lacks a good flow but I know what you mean.

I liked it. =] I have one complaint, though.

Meditation of the soul
Reek of the bad spirit.

Don't get me wrong... I loved this. But something about Reek of the bad spirit sorta interrupts the poem. Mostly the word "bad". Might you consider rephrasing that somehow?

I think the reason for that was, was that you used so many larger words, that sticking a smaller word in there sorta throws you off, when you're expecting something more.... Well... fully developed.

But great job anyways! Up

Thank you very much hun! Hug

Ah, I see your point. I could simply change it to "Reek of the malevolent spirit"
