Daniel Turner Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Between the Lines

Nebulous streams, clouding my brain
Vapor trail dreams, from paper airplanes
Cherry red glow, watch with no chain
Ribbons and bows, tied to the flames

Anchors on strings, hanging from sails
Bells that don't ring, throw down the pail
Falling through cracks, greased by the sale
Hearts made of wax, sent through the mail

Waterfall wishes on stars with no swings
Broken blue dishes stuck to the king
Photos with glitches on invisible wings
Temptation itches on all living things

John Hamilton December 12, 2016 at 12:47 PM Loved the rhymes this is a classic 60's acid trip brain buster. Used to work with a guy in the seventies, thought he was Robert Plant and talked like this all the time, what a trip!! Your picture is quite apt for the write.A7

Lim'Rik Flats December 12, 2016 at 12:13 PM Well, I'm a color junkie as well as a brain-cell rearrangement junkie (no drugs though), so this is just spectacular! Makes my little boy heart sing and my big boy brain sail on electric-koolaid-acid planes. Very fun and screamingly creative Daniel! Enjoyed a buncha ~ john

Probir Gupta December 12, 2016 at 9:08 AM Great display of image... Great freedom from routine cage ...

Chris Green December 12, 2016 at 6:59 AM Kind of takes me back to the late 60, early 70s when the world seemed in this fashion and everything was vibrantly colored, day glo and black lights that seemed to take up residence in the mind. Very creative and thought swirling Daniel.

CayCay Godwin December 12, 2016 at 5:57 AM OH MY GOSH - the lyrics, the imagery - they are awesomely poetic. I guess the last line defines the poems meaning??, but don't even care if it has one or is simply mis-defined by me because I'm in love with the wording in each stanza. They are top notch WOWs! I'm in love with your lines, Daniel! oh no ... CayCay (this would work on contest about where one's mind goes, something like that)
