You

Michael Turner's poem La Danse Immobile was about love and his poem today is about love too. But they do not describe the same thing.

You

By Michael Turner

You the wanton beguiling with flirtatious eyes.

You the termagant commanding with strident impositions.

You the muse leading me to the feast of words.

You the maenad lashing me to submission.

You the mistress kneading me to accomplishment.

You the shrew taming me.

You the Lady leading me with silken hackamore.

I have often enjoyed a 'feast of words' so I loved this line. The one that really took my breath, however, was 'silken hackamore'. The image and the cadence of the words are wonderful.
