    Lip Synching



    Lips Synching

    (Lip Synching)
    I'll live in the midst
    of towering fist
    devoured by love
    and cowardice fits
    bound by lips
    to love i insisted
    to drown in hits
    that never existed


    Sinking
    falling
    like spit dropping
    hearts pounding
    relentlessly
    fist throbbing
    probably
    wasn't the first time
    she felt blows
    felt highs lows
    though none
    show
    her heart grows
    slow, slowing, slower
    it almost stops
    she feels
    each knock
    the sound
    grows loud
    till it pounds
    the door
    of her heart
    down
    bang!
    Dropping
    falling breaking
    her mind
    his words lift
    her jaw
    her teeth cringe
    his fist clinch
    tight
    against her lip
    he hits so hard
    flinch she wont
    she's broke
    down,
    strokes In out
    she doubts
    fact
    she fights back
    tears,
    her brain rains
    deep
    floods rush
    seep through
    dry eyes
    glazed
    wild
    lions caged
    drowning howls
    face
    broken moons
    half gone
    dissolved
    in tears
    fear she cant
    hear
    his words
    mute
    against her ears
    she turns her cheek
    and speaks
    clear


    I'll live in the midst
    of towering fist
    devoured by love
    and cowardice fits
    bound by lips
    to love i insisted
    to drown in hits
    that never existed

    Re: Lip Synching

    you are right... emphasis came immediately after the red text and followed through
    this was a strange but cool structure and rhyme scheme was on point as usual coming from you.. stayed on topic goood consistency

    Re: Lip Synching

    Sorry for taking long to get back to you on this.

    I liked the way you opened this poem up. It was very repetitive which i suppose you wanted to illustrate abusive behavior but I did have a problem with the ''hits'' line. Somehow that word did not seem to gel in with everything else in that stanza.

    You second stanza was very fluid and I think this is where the poem begins for me. The transition from line to line is very crisp which i always acknowledge at any given day unless of course one uses a concept deliberately to convey it otherwise.
    The emphasis on your colored word wasn't necessary. Any articulate person will notice that the word is placed there for that reason or simply highlight rather than use different color cause presentation wise, it strains the eyes but that just a personal thing.

    Overall this was a good showing and the classic poetic style of using the same stanza for opening and closing to make the point you are conveying resonate is always a marvel. Good stuff, keep writing
