Given Presence

Resourceful - conjuring bulk from brain brew
Remorseful - predictable poetry, spirit sinking 
Perception - radically alters the same view
Pareidolia -  open gate self driven thinking

Eradicate -   enclosure - thwart cliche profanity
Enigma -  drifts in layers of conciousness 
Hallucinate - haunts the bridge adjoining sanity 
Hypothosise - solidify vapour responsiveness 

Fabricate -  concocted charade materialised
Fantasy - unreal ideas give desperate relief
Establish - beyond bounds to tantalise 
Erroneous -  concealed, reveals new belief

Rampant written critters eat readers' expectations 
Sabre tooth tigers exude from woodgrain exuberantly 
Thumping words stir rainbow disco illumination 
With sage persuasion, topic prospers convincingly

Slices of vivid visuals leave consumer inflicted
Scenarios spring suddenly, scorch on impact 
Rage and rapture entwine, rapid zig zag ballistic 
Buffed poem friction, grazed reader attacked

This part made me weirdly and incredibly happy. I laughed "Sabre tooth tigers exude from woodgrain exuberantly Thumping words stir rainbow disco illumination " Love it!

Sometimes our mind plays tricks on us, things are not always as they appear. Nicely penned, Sigrid, best of luck in the contest. John
