Beyond the Elemental

Screen Shot 2018-03-09 at 10.38.52 PM.jpg

I am corporeal …

                    melded to the sanguine
                               iron-blooded
                     constructed skeletal
                     encased in flesh
                     conceived by the carnal

bound to earthly veins and pulled by desires

I am corporeal

...

I am a ghost, a changeling

                     lost, looking for a sire
                     feeling my way
                                    heavy and clumsy
                     crushing underfoot tender things
                     grieving their demise
                     condemning my own passing

confused, distorted, by a lack of understanding

I am a changeling

...

I am mind

                     shapeless
                     limitless
                     boundless

existing beyond
                     yet to be forged
                                         by the elemental

I am

Its good Pryde .. its good

Thank you, Queen. I am finding the 93 poems in 100 days a challenge. I usually like to sit on a poem for a few days and play around with it, get it just right to my estimation; so I am never sure how these quicker writes are going to turn out:) I appreciate your reassurance:):):) I do:)

I would not agree to those terms. lol As poetry is defiantly not my strong suit. I struggle to even post one thing a week let alone 97 poems in 100 days.

I think you are doing well. :)

It's 90 poems now:) Yay!!!

It's same with me... When i have to write within some minutes... I prefer to get my inspirations from my mood and now that has changed.. getting a new one everyday. Is a great challenge considering the fact that i'm only a beginer. I guess we have to stay focused.afterall that is why it's called "challenge" 😂

Indeed. the good new is we only have to do 90 poems now to complete the challenge. D-pend has changed it to 10 rest days:)

A perfect contest for you! I wish you success. I'm sure you'll have it.

My pleasure! You know...from all my heart!

You write in a very beautiful and original way @ prydefoltz.

Expounding upon the “I think therefore I am” existentialism.

Love the transitions from I am / I am a / I am.

Your words hark of a prison, then, when some would say a release from the corporeal would be a naturally release from these bonds, a show and awareness to a continued ungainliness in still existing within the boundaries of the 'a'.

I feel the cyclical nature of this poem, I think, the recycling of energy through the conscious and subconscious journey of being and to be.

Always enjoy the read, @prydefoltz, thank you for sharing.

Wonderful comment. Thank you, Carmalain:)

I like how to your writing the type of poetry. Nice one.

by the way, I upvote and followed you, so please give me feedback at my day 3 poetry:

The Everything About Loving

Thank you, anggreklestari:)

This is epic! I really love the different ways you arrange your writing here... I don't know why spacing is so effective, but it really adds a lot of extra depth to the writing.

Glad you started posting yours in the channel now... that's how I found my way to this one :)

Keep up the amazing work... Looking forward to reading more!
