12/28/2006 - Winch
Posted in Favorite Poets

As a young girl I was so free
Laughing, jumping, climbing a tree
Then I grew older and worked in the pub
With seamen to serve and floors to scrub

Stolen from bed deep in the night
Dragged to a schooner unable to fight
Bent over backward, bound to a barrel
My dress torn open, feeling of peril

Used as an object for sailors delight
A victim of lust that is my plight
Flesh on my wrist, torn from the rope
They put out to sea, I lost all hope

Unable to scream because of the gag
They named me a winch, called me a hag
One thing they never can take from me
Dreams of that girl who was climbing a tree

Oscar Wilde: Particularly 'The Ballad of Reading Gaol' sadly enough as it expresses such sad honesty and pain, however his earlier work is simply divine.

Edgar Allan Poe: I have to confess, I do think he had a way of cheating in his poetry, to make things fit, but I don't care, because he did it with skill and not in a clumsy manner (like only Bach can put an unfavoured chord in a Bach chorale, because only he could do it with the needed style...when other people try and cheat, it just sounds bad...hehe). My favourite of his is 'The City In The Sea', and most definitely not the over exposed, over used, over rated bloody Raven.
