Don't Be Simple (Nymphos)

Thoughts are a provoked knife
slicing away at the minuet hand,
drinking violence like Clockwork
Orange, peeled, and nothing turns
me on like organized chaos and
mystery, don't just stand there, and
try to figure out how to be human,
throw it against the wall, throw me
against the wall, there is no reason,
to just be simple.

    a good piece of poetry which you have presented here, organised chaos, would you like fries with that? the madness of notions that slip the mind into deep oceans where each splash sends shivers of time through the soul.
    - was that hard enough?

    Holy hell, this is sexy! haha. I mean, not in the regular way. There's not a single cliche, as there are usually several in most poems like this. I think it's brilliant, personally. I particularly adore the first two lines.

      Hello!!!! Thank you for the comment, you've got
      me blushing... I think its only because there was
      something personal about this write, although I try
      not to get personal when I write.
      And how are you doing????

    Whatever is going on here I like it. It is scary and also beautiful. The words bring to mind a Stephen King nightmare.

    yep that word never simple an uncontrollable force and you portrayed it wonderfully. "don't just stand there, and
    try to figure out how to be human, throw it against the wall, throw me against the wall," Wow Bravo!

    Opening is tantamount to a poetic orgy..."Thoughts are a provoked knife" (I would say very sharp, but the pun falls flat). The whole damn thing is terrific! Fav part,
    "and nothing
    turns me on like organized chaos and
    mystery, don't just stand there, and
    try to figure out how to be human,
    throw it against the wall, throw me
    against the wall,"

    Love that undertow of badassness!
    Another fantastic write! Geo

    I really enjoyed the fact that you threw Clockwork Orange in there. It's a wonderful book and film!

    All in all, very well written, and thought provoking...

    What else can I say? Nothing less than what I've come to expect!

    It is very thick and progresses with little jumps. I had a little fun trying to keep up with the pace.
