RED HOT




A gasp
A shudder
The explosion
Blinding lights
The tremors
The scream
Drowning in the stream
Being swept away in the hot lava
Burnt, spent and unconscious.
The marks that were left behind
The animal imprints
To subdue and to control....
The only reminder
Of a violent night!!

  6. I'm not sure if it was a good night or not (it could be interpreted in a different way and I like that).

  8. I Loved it, and was reading the comments above. I took it as a violent night, and it has hurt my heart. The second option didn't even cross my mind. I hope I'm wrong!

    1. It can be taken the way you can relate too....Passionately violent or violently passionate.

  10. Hello Janu.
    The beauty of poetry is that there is no right or wrong interpretation. My poetic mind sees two very different sides to this hot little number. Just awesome! Thanks for sharing.
