Something Borrowed a Marianne Moore Phrasis

SOMETHING BORROWED a M M Phrasis Enough of ennui,I may I might the mind is an enchanting thing,senses do not deceive.Days of prismatic colour apparations of splendour,things are what they seem, a mosaic, a prosaic voracity and verity. What are years then? Efforts of affectation, dispositions by angels? No,the past is the present,a chameleon face of discontent.O calamity,no swan so fine as the merits of heredity,let the critics dream in their preciosity for charity overcomes envy where light is speech. A phrasis inspired by the titles of Marianne Moore Poems Listen to me recite my phrasis on youtube under my pen name ichthyschiro
