"bang bang"

Bang Bang!

"bang bang" ---

the sound of a car backfiring echoes across the balmy crimson evening,

must get that exhaust fixed...

"clink clink" ---

the noise of the ice cubes splashing into malt whiskey,

the smell of recently-purloined Cuban cigars distilled in the salty breeze...

"Woof Woof" ---

a grumpy dog barks his disapproval in a low guttural growl,

he doesn't like intruders on his patch nor the heady scent of new money...

"Ding dong" --- rings the internal security bell,

Who's she??

The glass almost slips out of my hand unnoticed...

Who is the tall dark lady in the long red dress who just came in and lit up the room?

"Hey, I'll be back in 5 minutes,"

Who is she......?

mmm... ice cubes splashing into malt liquor. This is pretty cool stuff. I'm not sure what your intentions are on hubpages, but I recommend taking the time to gather more followers, simply because your poetry can handle a much larger audience.

.....oh god Mr.Damian I love this one - bang bang is right - bang bang indeed!!!

It reads like pure poetic cinema of the mind and you make this rather dashing piece a very exciting experience for your audience (of admirers)

Thanks a lot epigramman... I love your enthusiasm!!

You remind me a lot of one of my English teachers, if you notice in my profile I mention that a few of them are as mad as snakes but I am sure you are perfectly sane! :-) Thanks again for the energy, I'd like to have a chat with you about poetry one day..
