"Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feeling as to sight? Or art thou but a dagger of the mind, a false creation, proceeding from the heat-oppressèd brain?"

Listen to poem:

From crashing waves he emerges with the clarity of a wide landscape The king of darkness Parades In full view His garish, monochrome ego Emergent for all to despise Original poem (extract): "Into the ripples of the horizon's haze The queen of the daylight Slinks Then is gone Her wispy train of colour Vanishing" [From Poem: Sunset, Sam Scott 14.09.23]

Creative lines penned in both. I like the vision of dark after sunset as well as the descriptive lines about the sunsetting. Reads like a good contender to me for the contest. Way to go. Sara K
