Dancing Off Center Staged Delusions

Poetically fractured retractions gnashing night prayers, scribbling braille, written sideways dipped amid holy water retention, compromising statements of disbelief's proclamation spinning music the color of nakedly sick psycho, yet burnished souls keep on ticking half past total trade-offs in a spoonful of smoky reflections sans sugar's acid trip, anointed of rose red bloody false pretenses dancing off center in disillusioned pirouettes of pseudo redemption, whirling out of control on staged tapestry's loftiness surrendered ballet slippers in blistered half promises, as twisted metaphors sprightly tuned out spun anomalies below birds on a rusty wire tweeting admissions of cobalt blue executions, rendered inky alterations' inquisitions 'pon pedaled pink fluff profundity, exhaling paroxysms of engaged poetry in vehemently enraged deliverance, naught one is ever as they seem through pigmented film 'neath figment's imagined looking glass of ingratiated grand delusions

It is most definitely hyperbole, Paloma but true. None of us are as we appear to be:)

True, you probably look like Johnny Depp in real life and I'm Angelina Jolie. ;)

This one had me spinning as I read it. Your poetry is very unique and extremely creative. At times it appears abstract to me in a Jackson Pollock sort of way. It always leaves a little to the imagination, allowing thoughts to dance about in my mind.
