Impression Carnval

IMPRESSION CARNIVAL  

My sensual implosion
A rainbow mexicality
With blue New Orleans
            and
Hats
          Masks	
                 People
                           Noise
All bursting on a sucked-up image
            and
There is tin can music
                        blatting  cacophonous
Between, strokes 
            but
There is fun      Insanity!
Movement of go-to-hell frolic

This sits on leaden plain

I sigh

I can sense the owerwhelmingness within that 'I believe' you are engaging me with here Daver, I think the last lines give it so much extra dimension also, very well done.'

How good to hear from you. Word jazz is a great name for this sort of stuff. When you sit around most of the time, you wonder about things like Mardi Gras abd old times. Love, daver

Mardi Gras fun and wild abandonment are celebrated in the creative expression you have shared in your wonderful mélange of colorful passion Daver. I love it! I hope they televise some of the fun tomorrow. ; ) 7

Good to be back. Not sure how my computer will work. Poetry Soup wants to change browsers and I screwed up trying to change, so if my old window doesn't work later on, I'm in trouble again. Love, daver

Mardi Gras....my kindle always changes my words and I often miss it. It is so frustrating! ; (
