Joint Poem With SummerDragon80

Collaborative Poems
02 Dec 2008

Jenn and I decided to try a little poetry experiment where we would collaboratively create a poem. It started with an email with one poetry line and then a response with the second line and continued until we both thought the poem was finished. Neither one of us would know what the other would write, after the poem was completed we each came up with a list of titles and chose which one seemed to fit best.

I liked A Lone Wolf’s Heart, so I am re-posting the full poem. You should check out Before I Am Famous and Dragonfly Poems for Jenn’s other work, she is one of the people who inspired me to create a poetry blog in the first place.

A Lone Wolf’s Heart

Release these chains around your wrists
Stand naked before the weeping moon
The Howling wolves within your heart
Consuming fires engulf your lonely soul

Will you find that long lost love?
Will you find your savior from wretchedness?
Your bleeding heart shall shed no more tears
I am waiting in the shadows to join you
Where is your knight to slay the dragon?

To free you from the dark serpents
Justice and valor seem a distant memory
Come and let me enrapture you
Kiss me tender then kiss me firm
Our loneliness vanishes. In the inferno from the dragon’s mouth our bodies melt
Passion is assured with my heart being saved
