~Machicolated words of verse~

~Machicolated words of verse~

Words of despair, words that rip at the air,
Words of hopeless cares, words that choke,
words unspoken,
Words spoken that tighten the knot on the rope end.
Words of blue,
Words that chew, words that make you stew over,
and over again.
Words shouted loud, words of a clown,
words caught with a unflavored tasteless twist.
Words that a muse, many of my words seem used ,
Words that run without a structured end.
Words of fun, words of love,
words that seem to never have a end.
Words of stiff, words of our life,
words that fall out my head..
Words that stun, words that shun,
Words that come out from deep down from within.
Words that you will bend, words that I send,
Words from my heartless grin,
Words I blurt, words that hurt, some days even words,
that even make amends.
Words of new starts, words that are made of devilish sin.
Words of hate, words used to make fate articulate.
These are my words, the words I choose,
words that I use today my words cramp my head.
So many of my words which ones to use,
words seem they were written to never have a end.
Words that no longer care, words of despair,
Finally my words have come to there simple end…..

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
