Pour me a glass of wine
Things are to be fine
Daylight impatiently subsiding
Somber pink hues arrange
Merciful to the day—beautiful
Mesmerized by the likes of the skies
Openly free, an endless sequence to see
Illuminating smears so vast amongst us
Feeling minuscule in body,
Yet complex in it all
Surrounding each being is delicate skies
Reassuring that everything will be just alright
No one neglected or wrong to its presence
In this moment alone we may all unite
We all deserve breaks from this battle of distance
Struggling to accept the creation of all
Reluctant to trust though options are dwindling
The lustful skies scream for my surrender
I must veer my relents and find peace that may stay
My thoughts are unique, bothersome to say
for this reason, I’ll forfeit become better—more present
I will believe in this moment
I will be safe in a meaning
But the more that I can see
The less I obey
Tempted and thirsty I say
Pour me a glass of wine
-Kristen

I really liked your last read, or for me, the most recent poem of yours, that I read: “Pour me a glass of wine”. I selected four sentences and am pasting it on this comment. I am so close to getting the philosophical transcendence. Here are the four sentences: “We all deserve breaks from this battle of distance.
Struggling to accept the creation of all

I rarely ask questions of poetry because I’m scared the author will think I am stupid. So just know that when you answer. On these sentences like “reluctance to trust though options are dwindling. And the lustful skies scream for my surrender.” Are you referring to the premise that you feel like just letting go (in this poem) and the skies…is that a type of hereafter; but, nonetheless, you fight those urges to give in because staying you think will give you peace, enough so that you will stay…something like that? I am a big fan of poems written in the I narrative. I’ll blog some here soon. I have two completed books published and eight more completed but not published because it just coast so much money. That’s why I’m building my web site with key words…search engines, etc.
Another question is when you write poems like this…using the I narrative, are most dark, or mysterious? And is that the same thin for any romance poems? I remember years ago when I wrote dark romance poetry which I still think are my better ones, my sister read one of them and came over to ask if if I’m leaving, breaking up with my better half. People that do not get poetry do not understand that we have tricks, we know how to wake up that part of the brain and write that type of poetry. A great read. I’m proud of you. It feels great to express our selves even if we’re writing about a fictional character or premise.
