RED IS THE NEW BLACK

Avatarrandom rantings and rabid retorts of a socially-retarded, decidedly high-strung, renewed romantic

play. catch.



Capture me. In the cataclysmic chasms of your chestnut stare. Effervescent and elucidate simultaneously, crisp and crumbling across the lines of your fingers. Melt me, with the enrapturing flames engulfing from the bosoms of indifference.

My dyslexia feeds your immortality. The more I steal the defeated glances, the more surreal you become. Beautiful and bare. A god beneath the heavens, vengeful and bitter, and elegant and stubborn. Caressing the earth with a discretion beyond your divinity, bringing forth ejaculations of inspired debauchery. For men to consume, and for you to observe. You create worlds, but never inhabit them. You draw the scene, and cast the curtain.

We touch, yet your preoccupation with the man before us is apparent in the frigid sensation of your palms. Holding but untangling, touching but unrelenting. I catch a glimpse of your eyes. Deep like melted chocolate, sublimating and suffocating, piercing and imploring, welling in its saltine depths.

Then I realized, it was a mirror.

@Manech Yes. But they are also the most fun to seek out. Like a labyrinth awaiting triumphing, the seduction lures you in deeper.

@gillboard Hehe. Your welcome ser! Lagi naman akong bumibisita, tahimik nga lang. :D

Yey, it's fun to read blogs like yours, and like Manech's, too. If only I knew that awesome writers live here on blogger, I should've lurked here years ago.

i got a different interpretation. i dunno. could be the lack of sleep but i kinda got a narcissus vibe to the post. or i could be just fixating on your last line.

@basterda Why thank you ma'am! I feel so unworthy of such a massive compliment, especially coming from such a prolificly brilliant auteur as yourself.

@Nyl Your interpretation is as valid as any other. I'll let you in on a little secret, that last line is ambiguous. :)

or maybe you saw so much of yourself in someone? oh, red. this is quite the puzzle.

@Nyl A conundrum replete with refracted imagery. Despotic in its lurid lure.
