(FROM THE POEMS OF DR. NASDI PHILBAHD)

My love is like a fallen rose that spreads
Its crimson petals soft upon the floor,
The madness of this deed forevermore
Contained in pools of coagulating reds.

Alas, my rose, you failed to understand
The inner workings of my fine-tuned mind.
Had you, perhaps, resolved to be more kind
Your broken throat need not be in my hand.

Did you not care I had a beating heart
That cowered at your constant, mocking call?
Did you not even understand, my rose?
Perhaps it's that you did not think at all.

Now look at how you're just a lifeless rose;
So sad to see how flowers decompose.

I love it !!!

Very smooth with sweet flow. You paint and we se/saw so much, more. I loved it from the first phrase till the last, thought. No dangling here, just sweet perfection ~ Nice, Nice pen ~!!!

Oh wow, seriously a sonnet not overloaded with poesy, nor tweediness. Let's go read your other one, Steve, what did I say about not being a fan last week. I am becoming one.

Oh a sonnet!

And a well-written, clever one with an O Henry ending, to boot. You're just full of surprises. :-)

Dr. Nasdi is so bad {sorry, couldn't resist} and such a rage he contains. Very dark person you've presented in such a darkly humorous way.
