The testimonies of yesteryear
Lessons that transcribe desire
Let’s not be too hasty to conspire
Spilled ink will reveal the liars
§
This week the event is to Write a story or poem of 5 Lines or Less using the word desire. Please stop in and join the challenge at Patricia’s Place
I’d be delighted to see you at the Go Dog Go Cafe where there is a remarkable cluster of talented writers. I’m one of the Baristas and proud to be a part this elite group.
And please pay a visit to ThusNSuch, dedicated to poetry –

The hasty always give themselves away!

Intriguing piece of poetry Eugenia. I wonder how many writers of this type could look the subjects of the writing in the eye. Your photo brings more power to the poem.

Eugenia,
Fabulous poem! I love the rhyme of your ending words in each line – desire, conspire, liars. This is something I wish came natural to me. Ooo, what interesting poem! I wonder what lies were revealed? Thanks for sharing!

I’m glad you liked it, Patricia. I find cat’s eyes beautiful and fascinating. They have a way of communicating that doesn’t need to be verbalized.
