Scent Marks


Mardrax

Recommended Posts

Scent marks;

Tracing pheromones

years back

Electric goosebumped spines

 

Seen before

passing memories

Intoxicating through

a feline Jugend craze

 

Nucking futs

and daring socks

 

On a deserted island

All days are good

 

_______________

 

Might very well toss this one a revision some time I'm actually sober and awake.

Otherwise, live with the seeming incoherentness ^_^

Haphazard or not, I like this poem Mardrax. :-) The arrangement and alignment of seemingly alien words is particularly interesting to me, with "Jugend craze" standing out amongst others. I also like how it traces pheromones of memories past through a sense of smell. The placement of "Nucking futs" is cool as well. The only part of the poem that feels off to me is the last stanza... the other three stanzas feel personal and embedded in experience to me, while the last one feels like a general statement that anyone could have made.

 

Interesting stuff. :-) I'm glad you decided to share this "unsober/unawake" poem with us here. It'll be interesting to see what direction you take with it should you choose to revise it.

Everything alien in there is because it's a whole lot of incrowd talk, and the last two lines only seem bland because you don't know the song they were translated from :P

*jiggies*

 

I won't be revising it as it really is as perfect as I can get it. I might well be taking the first stanza and expand that independantly though.

*grins and chants* "expand, expand" :D

 

And funny how even without realising where the last stanza came from it made some sense to me. More so now though ^_^

II; Unison

 

One, two,

Reflected couple

three, four

blonde on blonder doubles

 

Turn it on,

cross the line,

and hit it.

 

Aquatic adhesive

lubricant divider

 

Orange overpowering pheromones

Carefully judged by a penguin God

 

One dash of hot

Hair dripping, tangled

Both bodies mangled

And you know it's all

Your fault!
