Blog is live!

Well while I teach myself web design, I desided that starting a blog would be a good idea. Just a place where I can let my poetry and thoughts grow really.
So to break things in let's start with a poem, shall we? 
I have a mild fasination with Japan and it's culture, this poem was conceaved while looking at Geisha and Maiko pictures.


Maiko


Serpents stretched in mercury creeping
Midnight wraps a formless art
Bronze white folds tied at the back declaring chastity
Fleeting nods of bobbing meaning

Soulful orbs hidden then revealed by sweeping movement
Every elegant paced step a story revealed.
Shimmering black crowns a ghostly pale visage born for candles
Apple lips parted in only whispered service

Han'gyoku Maiko dancing teasing tradition
Seducing rejection of tradions wanton advance
Kyoto demure mesured daughter Maiko
Traditions favored child.


Feel free to comment, critique or even just take the piss.
