Casanova Poem by Sulaiman Mohd Yusof

Casanova

Rating: 5.0


Nautical boundaries of your mind
Elapsed beneath the time frame
Of your wondrous consigns
Noteworthy for applauded brain game

In a mid of challenge
You stuttered for no apparent reason
A strategy beckons
Bestowed on amorous and gallant
Creating all the pleasant

Not getting enough
Dwelling and dealing
Are getting rough
And crime consuming

Like a snake in the eagle’s shadow
Predator’s instinct you possessed
Had made you grow
Rivals were oppressed
Taking distant blows

Invading the winners’ circle
Grabbing the dreamed woman
Feels excited you giggles
Celebrates your greatest moment

Casanova
A damned Mr. Lover
The game is over
You have to pull over

I am confused by this one Salaiman. Though the language sounds wonderful, it's meaning is not quite clear to me. You speak of Casanova 'stuttering' - as a snake hovering under the eagle's shadow (great metaphor, by the way) . But later, he 'grabs the dreaming woman.' So your final stanza is puzzling though it is very well crafted. 'Casanova A damned Mr. Lover The game is over You have to pull over'. I'd like to know more. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

'crime consuming' is genius! The whole of the poem is great, but I love a good phrase like that....
