*****
Wicked, wicked boy

Shadowless forms know no sunlight
No reflection, no silhouette
When asked for song, they sing nocturnes
burning lamplight, a dance with the moon

Hurried along by the master
Crimson sunrise, morning rain
Quickening steps hold the darkness
‘till the door stoop, downstairs

Into your box, Doppelganger
Hide from daylight, and the rays
I’ll leave there until midnight
then on our flight, into thin air

*****

Ohhhh...poor little cbabysnugglebunny, she's lived a sheltered life.

There's lots of people more creative than me who post here.

Go back and read Todd and Shad, opposite sides of the poetic fence.

Okay no BS here at all, this is really good. Nice imagery. Excellent word choice.

When asked for song, they sing nocturnes

Love that.

And my favorite line is:

Quickening steps hold the darkness

This was very, very good TD.

For me a poem has to have rhythm. It would not unavoidably could desire to rhyme besides the fact that if it needs to hit my thoughts. i think of readability of expression is important as nicely. i do no longer desire to 2nd guess what i'm interpreting approximately. I constantly look for what I term "poetic gem stones"interior the text textile.

Why people want rhymes is a mystery to me. Does it make it easy to read? Do they just want this little easy rhyming pattern? Your poem is very good as it is. I was a little taken aback at first by the lack of punctuation but it makes it more ambiguous. I don't know if that was your reason.

Great imagery and you've got a good sense of how words sound. Just rewrite the last two lines of the second stanza so that they make sense. Keep writing, you've good a good feel for it.

A dance with the moon,
Eluding darkness to joy,
Dance to the barking tune,
The wicked, wicked boy.

-->A possible third stanza...haha
