warrant humaneness
It's all surgeon bludgeon
equanimity stratagem
unfazed by quibbles 
           coarse aqueous colander

a memory pillow
bled to venture
perplexed spuriousness
throb growingly cognizant
       numbness wooziness

clock is striking
likewise we should
If we can force the lock
falasity proven by speculum
          verdict of acquittal

1st place contest winner 

A Strand (1075) Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Brian Strand

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived. ( Poem inspired by Poet Brian Strand Form)

I have been wondering who this new poet is.... There is a novelty for your new name . Your vocabulary is tremendous .... I need refer a dictionary to get the full gist of your poem. Great write, dear friend.
