Fine Line (eddy styx)

Fine Line

lolling head
eyes glazing
droning chant
volume growing
unholy issuance
of sounds inhuman
crazy twisting
tortured tongue...
face contorting
body seizing
spasms rolling...
gibberish ranting
lost in moaning
trance inducing
spirit vision
mind inviting
channel seeking...
thrill of
spiritual possession
ritualistically obsessed...
gyrating
rhythmic writhing
erotically obscene...
fouled and felonious
practitioner
of Satan...
damned to Hell's eternal flame?
nay...
practitioner child
of Pentecost!

(the moral of this poem is: don't be so quick to judge, LOL!

I like...

the title, language use is great, and the rhythm, pacing is excellent!
The theme is good, and I think this will make a fine addition to the Book of Styx II.
Great stuff! As always, you held my attention to the last, and the only suggestions I have, are to;
delete the word [spiritual], and use [ritual obsession] instead of [ritualistically obsessed]. Always, ~ Gee

Dear Shirl,

I'm so glad you like this one and that you found the link! The second installment is waiting on my editor (Steve) to go through it when he has the time. I may ask for him to take a vacation day from work to work on the book.

love, Cat

Dear Lou,

I make plenty of mistakes, it is just that I go through them quite a bit before I post them. You should see them before I work on them! Thanks for the thumbs up!
