Notes About The Poem

Ethereal Extrapolation

past retentiveness
absurdity would not last
you or me
      idiosyncratic

riddles held not held
pain lurking
an obdurate innuendo
        bonafide

talks uttered 
not uttered by me
an acquaintance
         whimsical bearing

I can witness
concurrently
a squandering
magnetism balanced 
               voluptuousness

blurred cipher
withstanding at the egress
nevermore ingress
taught apotheosized
              in conundrum


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.
