Hope everyone has had a good Christmas and are enjoying the holidays!

I've written the first line of a poem. Carry it on!

-----------

I bathe in lacquered waters
 
although waters can't be lacquered*
i make stiches of paper





*not trying to be snarky, i just thought it'd be fun in a more surreal direction :)

Keep the poets line.

I bathe in lacquered waters
or what it feels to be

i did, i thought we were just supposed to write the next one in the series, which was "although waters can't be lacquered. " then i wrote a line of my own along a similar impossible simile, i thought t might be fun to take in that direction.

guess i didn't understand what i was supposed to do,sorry for any confusion.

Oh poo! I did get confused. My apologies. It's because you added an additional line, which made me think you changed cward's first line. Now, what are we going to do? CWARD!!!!

Ok, lets start again.
All you have to do for this thread is just carry on the poem. I'll write the first line and you just carry it on. Please don't change it!

I bathe in lacquered waters
or what it feels to me
a lagoon of night unfolding
 
I bathe in lacquered waters
or what it feels to me
a lagoon of night unfolding
piecemeal, while I ponder

in torment from my own

thoughts that lay on the table

wanting fiercely to seduce me

the lacquered waters are clouds of the mind
the daughters are wayard thoughts
wayward thoughts I find
that are not what they ought

I bathe in lacquered waters
or what it feels to me;
a lagoon of night unfolding
piecemeal, while I ponder
in torment from my own
thoughts that lay on the table
exposed for all to see.

Could it be a dream, a nightmare

Could it be my hopes unfolding?
