Stalk of burning dredge
inside my aching head
flow the passion flame
burnt with lover cry's,
cravings, as a fine wine,
dine the imagination;
whirlwinds in massive hate
when your away,
the jealousy plays
insane wails, tear drops
on my pillows, edge
falling off, to remorse
this love that burns
the heart, deaden
life nibbling, gone
love turning to hate

how evocative to see this writing from the far side of beautiful fall....do you suppose they rattle threateningly? Nicely done, thank you.
