because you were my echo
for all eternity you’ve held me
mid air gagged and bound
i clung and you squeezed
an inky black forbidden sickness
blessed only by masters apostates all
i cut my skin for you
i lied and forked my tongue for you
i crawled in shame only for you
but you still held me held me there
like a cave around the diamond
you and i knew each other for a thousand years
my beloved my tempting mistress
i your little nothing lower than waste
your eyes green emeralds
and cheeks of porcelain gold
you smiled into my darkened mirror
and willingly i shred my soul
if only for a taste of you
a taste of a devilish divine kiss
let me crawl raw belly on crystal you nails
caress my blood as a farewell
like sand in the Sahara let me slip through…
Shout out to mbrazfieldm at Words Less Spoken for giving me the following idea from her blog https://wordpress.com/read/blogs/156180627/posts/1711 She wrote in part of an angel named Hortance, a Mae West look alike, who spoke with a Cockney accent.
I weren’t much of a looker. Me face being a bit pinched, dark circles under me eyes and I ‘ad this ‘orrible wart on me chin. But I ‘ad a generous ‘eart. I used to give to the poorest of the poor. Blokes who needed me but couldn’t afford the ready.
They’d say “Liza, I got an urgent need, but me ship ain’t come in yet. ‘Ow about yer take care of me and I’ll say a prayer fer yer. I’ll put in a word for yer to that geezer up there. Tell ‘im of your kind ‘eart.”
I’d say ” ‘Ow can a girl with a kind ‘eart refuse yer, when…

We encourage all of you to visit these blogs (or social media pages) and get acquainted with some great new writers. You never know who you might meet. . .
If you’re worried you may have missed the chance to submit a piece to Free Verse Revolution this month, do not fear, submissions are still open!
I only have six more spots and I would love to fill them with writers the readers here on Free Verse Revolution know and love. If you have submitted regularly before and you are interested, drop me an email at myscreamingtwenties@gmail.com to reserve a spot.
If you are new and this is your first time submitting, please follow the guidelines below:
Friday is here and you know what that means! Time to take off
the good boy and girl clothes and put your fibbing caps on. What are the
greatest whoppers you can spin for today’s questions?
Why is there an ‘e’ on the end of toe but not potato? “Po-ta-toe were triplets and they had an uncle To who lost his “e” in a jousting debacle. So that uncle To(e) wouldn’t bleed to death nephew toe donated his “e” to his uncle. Little toe didn’t need it, the “e” was an extra appendage like a tail.
What did the lettuce say to the rabbit? “If you eat me you might get e.coli.”
What is the best type of stick? “Oh ho ho, naughty naughty…tisk, tisk!”
Why are wheat crackers so tasty? “I need to ask someone who eats them.”
What happens at the rainbow factory on clear days? “They hose down the equipment and re-stock it with unicorn farts, they’re hard to get, like truffles.”
Which item of clothing is the most jealous? “The panty is horribly jealous of the ski mask. Panty would rather be stuck to a pair of face cheeks rather than the bottom ones, poor dear.”
How did a boat get in the middle of the desert? “That’s Noah’s he’s been lookin’ for it!”
What kind of dessert is best served in the desert? “Rock candy, no wait, yes, a chocolate fountain, mmmmmmm……”
What should an Englishman send an Australian for Christmas? “Personally, I think they should both be sending me presents.”
What really happened in the Hellfire Caves? “Some person thought they could replicate Heisenberg’s recipe.”
Why do ghosts exist? “They were in the Hellfire Caves.”
Where do everlasting gobstoppers come from? “That cheap dude from Australia from question #9. He thought it was funny to send me one as a gift.”
Where do dreams come from? “The Subaru commercials and too much extra cheese pizza.”
To new and regular contributors to Free Verse Revolution, the July submissions window is still open!
The theme is Love and it can be interpreted in any way you wish; whether that be a love of a significant other, crush, relative or possession.
I accept poetry and short pieces of prose which interpret the theme of the month in some way, and only one piece from each writer; but you may send up to three pieces for consideration.
Submission guidelines:
Send your submissions to myscreamingtwenties@gmail.com
July’s theme: Love
Interpret the theme any way you wish; you do not need to use the word as a title. Pieces may be previously published.
Submission format: poem/short prose should be attached via email as a Word Document or Google Doc. Please refrain from pasting it into the email as this makes formatting very difficult.
Images: if you wish to send an accompanying image…
