Gothic Encounter Poem by John Ackerman

Gothic Encounter



Gothic Encounter

bell of jelly beans getting lost by its means
the hidden frost on a mass appeal
a gross game of lets make a deal
shackled from the wheel of fortune...,
she sat in gothic apparel along the river Styx
shaped through the cowards dreams of letting go
some mere near shampoo hold

breath deep in how you hope in sensible night behold
walking, watching & waiting...

crystal ship there to behold
a pulse of the heart shall light a spark from here we go
at impulse of its love from above,
sent away cobwebs upon each thread
she dazzles with her eye
in view of a quaint passerby
nestled in the root of the eye

shadows there aimed to behold the diference
basking in the vast expanse of her chamber door love

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I have a favor to ask. More people are using than ever, yet it is increasingly hard to keep afloat. Unlike most web companies, I don't sell your information to advertisers-I want to remain independent so decisions are aligned with your needs, not those of advertisers. This is why I'm asking for your help. Running Poetry takes a lot of time, money and hard work, but we need a place like this in the world.
A place safe for the expression of our joy, yearning and chaos; our poetry. A place quiet and tolerant enough for our reflection and feeling. And, ultimately, a place we can connect with each other and belong.
