    Love Stinks By:Written Voices

    Love Stinks
    By: Jonathon, Kaotic Theory & FreshADiddle

    'oooo that smell'
    rocking and rolling
    memory on repeat -
    wanting a playback.

    just your scent
    priceless tagged;
    my eyes see
    through the sheets

    every-now and again,
    wanting to crave
    savoring the taste
    like buds in my nose

    beauty isn't measured
    only pleasure -
    because sex is better.
    ....
    that certain essence
    of that distinct scent
    has my sinuses dancing
    like a waltz of passion

    i can almost taste her
    as she would swim
    through the oxygen
    traveling up my nostrils

    was pure and cleansy
    like the garden of eden
    caressing me with her
    convincing odor....
    i call her love.
    ....
    He lived in a basement apartment...
    and smoked hella weed.
    He had a compulsion for hand washing...
    and eternally ashy knuckles.
    We taught each other things.

    I introduced him to Nag Champa...
    to cover up the weed smell.
    He preached the benefit of cocoa butter,
    for his ashy paws and my long legs.
    I would love to forget him.

    Every time I go to the corner store,
    the scent of his bed sheets fills me.
    The store clerk loves Nag Champa...
    And my summer time shiny legs
    remind me of his shoulders cradling my knees.

    I should have done more blow in college.

    Interesting mix here. Given how Fresh wrote the last part... I think it might have been more cohesive if the first half was written more about "she" As is, the pronouns are all funky.

    beauty isn't measured
    only pleasure -
    because sex is better.
    lol.

    The middle portion (KT?) had a few word choices that stuck out to me as somewhat out of place - distinct, odor, sinuses, oxygen, cleansy(?) I donno, just didn't seem to fit the vibe of the piece. Aside from that, I picked up on the same feel that Kuhn did. Very mellow and relaxed like those memories that float in gently along with the scent of something that brings them.

    I can definitely relate to that, especially Fresh's part. There are definitely scents that take me back to people and places. Loved how you captured this:

    remind me of his shoulders cradling my knees.
    Could have been vulgar but it wasn't. It was still smooth like the rest of the piece.

    Cool little piece yall have here. Reads like you had fun writing it.

    One of the better collabs poems. I didn't get as bothered by the word choices as abi did, but they did feel out of place at times. I got some good imagery; the waltz of passion line was a nice cool addition. Lmao at the ashy knees part, really cool addition to that image of a heroin addict more than a cocaine addict. I've always pictured coke addicts to be classy, flashy, hollywood characters. Shoulder cradling my knees line was coo. I thought with a few more touch up this could of been great.
