Anacoluthon Knights

i can never tell you how displeased readers 
  
   are by that position    the singular 

moment when nothing makes any sense

to them at all  but only to a few brilliant pebbles

that soar across the night canvas unknown
 to 
the dullards of academia
  it is the ONLY reason 
i write;   to express
 self to those very few 
who HEAR ME.
  the rest are noise and there is no 
time
 for wasting one's artistry on rigid brains
   and stiff 
necked human-geese.
Then again, my imagination never demands
  
an audience of understanding but more
 of an emotional receptivity.
 
  A slumbering shadowy cloud-vignette
     seeping from 
a tormented mind onto
   freshly sliced paper cuts.  
This is the 
color red screaming in a dying ink stroke.

So visceral and out spoken this poem be, Ernest. The non-metered gait of your words moves the intellect of the reader w/careful synchronicity. Your words breath w/poetic freedom. Try to bear w/us poor dullards, please. Be patient ... and as the seminal knowledge group, KRS-1 said: We must learn. You are one-of-a-kind, my poet friend. A gifted pen rests in your hand. Wonderful free-thinker's poetry. Love and best wishes always.

Mr. Robinson, I confess that at times my emotions wash over me in ways that I cannot control and the pen has its own mind when in that mind's state. Sir, thank you so kindly for your words and wishing you and yours a wonderful week! ~ E.P. Robles
