Amatively Speaking

My Poetry Thursday contribution


The word is: Amative


If it is a falling in love
it was most amatively
a thing later to be regretted
since such preoccupation
of body and soul taxes…
body and soul.



Thus a falling it was
one night when the moonlight
etched its verse across
your mind leaving a mark
on your heart, indecipherable
script…soul words.


Words read when mouth
gently touches a mouth
and becomes a thunderous
shout in the brain, boundaries
given new meaning in
mis-firing synapses
