OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,

the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter)

to input and responds thus

making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon

unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.

orbit around ideas once held close in past selves rhetoric bathed in clichéd visual representation burnished impulse strengthened by the the wilderness of inner life needs posited by visual language unmoored from contexts vagueness &amorphous abstraction fervency erased spring up distilled of some essence circumvented in narcissistic grafting of self in the tangible permanence of durable words
