Neon lights of love glister from the strobic sphere. Is my desire abhorrent? My head, spinning with each phantasmagoric twirl, yearns for your adoration.

Congratulations on your 3rd place, Linda. You have successfully brought the sedoka into the the 21st century with this innovative poem, abounding in metaphor, e.g. the extended metaphor of "strobic sphere", "spinning" and "twirl". You have successfully executed the contrast in the two stanzas -- the turn. Your concluding lines are the crux of the matter in each. Readers can relate -- the ultimate goal of any poem.

Perhaps, but why just two or three. Would it affect all of them. I can give it a try - won't hurt anything. :) Thanks!!

Ha - you both are correct - I enjoy both, but poetry is more portable and easier to "clean-up" afterward. ;);)

It came and it went dear Laf.. slapping paint on a blank canvas isn't nearly as rewarding as slapping words on a screen !

Thank you dear friend. How is your painting coming along? :)
