Angelina Poem by Mackenna Gaeta

Angelina

Rating: 5.0


Breathing air like sunshine
Summer tasted like copper that year
Sparks and stuck stars
Jet-lagged hopes of growing old

Sugarcane mourning
Adieu
And youth rained and steamed up
Champagne glasses nailed to the floor

We scalded our tongues on basslines
On quivers and quitters
Struck up like moons

November
Then
Falling....

And to the purple pansies you painted under your eyelids...
Storm on, chaotic darling

It's a fabulous poem! I am extremely delighted with your poetic expression: We scalded our tongues on basslines/On quivers and quitters/Struck up like moons...A very commendable piece of work! I vote it with a 10
