Laurentine G Poet Ekphrasis

Localization of Graphic Mobiles I

entrance in-trance not for sycophants 
   take my thoughts in highlight
 in the low light of the night's glare
      find solace in a central spine
   that unknown tell that tugs you in
        sweet, veiled, thin ~
no perimeter edges to teeter upon
           no concocted thought spooled or spun
more quivering fragments 
                        from corners of eyes 
    radiating ideas 
            persisting on scarred sighs
        gift me your entirety 
    nothing less
           is my best guess
                  on how enchantment fixes
              stitches
         glitches 
             bewitches
                  unhitches 

            until
                       you are welcomed to my world ~

Ink Empress May 15, 2026 at 1:39 PM whoa how did you see so much thru this artpiece is beyond me! I just looked it up. Saw a smile too i think in the artpiece. Maybe im seeing beyond… what a brilliant take on it! I love the opening line the most :O and also “ scarred sighs” stood out! “ stitches glitches bewitches unhitches” love that!! I was thinking of hosting a prompt on ig “ glitches n see u used here so well! Pleasure reading this gem dear LG! Youv again nailed it! Laurentine G May 15, 2026 at 10:35 PM Thanks Ink! I didn't see a smile in the painting but did see a shark/Totoro hybrid with a tear in it's eye but decided it didn't fit the poem to weave that in haha - I just decided this was the painting I'd write about last night. I haven't entered it anywhere as yet - I'll see how I feel :) it's pretty niche, kind of psychedelic but before psychedelic had been conceived :)
