Jinxed

Written: April 28, 2023 for Contest by: Ink Empress

            *****************

Colorful flowers bloomed with ethereal sapidity, 
roquish whims jinxed across kenopsia nights 
where onism becomes Elysian cure.

Dear Sotto, Very unique use of the prompt, youv presented it so very clean and decent too, i love your wordplay, so different especially "sapidity" "roquish" "onism" words i learned through this take on the prompt! The opening line is stunning! Thank you for sharing! Congratulations on your win! Sending you light

SP, I think you've captured a significant element of existence. Isn't it ironic that we have awareness of what we don't have? It makes communication a pretty important thing. Thanks for this prod to think.

Onism is a totally new word to me. You teach me more new words than perhaps a dictionary! Thank you... so much. Great entry.

Intriguing, beauty and desolate, a little eerie. Much food to ponder, SP. Good luck in contest!
