Description Cheap lexis
Vomited upon the page

Ink but blood
Upon the sheets
Sealed within a word –
Fuel now for the fire

Vain drivel – a lure –
for drooling fans
hot and ready
for the next romance
Transfixed – demure –
by lines, stuck-rooted
side-by-side within
a hopeless trance.

Sin sold for souvenirs
Her wounds bleed greed.
Yet hungry, not yet
Gorged; that public lust for
Grief.

I added you in my watchlist..
I like the way the poem doesn't flow smoothly; there is a distinctive kinda rhythm and beat to it, which I like.. keep writing..

I want to give you quality comments, but I'm not sure I can do so here, because I must admit I do not fully understand this peice. However I like these lines:

Vain drivel – a lure –
for drooling fans
hot and ready
for the next romance

I find these strong words, sure of themselves and with an opinion.
I hope you forgive me for such vagueness...

Thanks.

The poem is about a writer who exposes her soul/life/scars to the audience for a profit, but who puts no genuine feeling behind the works - a hack writer if you will, a popular novelist.

Okay makes alot more sense now, thanks for the explanation. I must admit i'm a fan of knowing the idea/story behind a poem.
