Christy Stover Poet Rhyme

Madness of More

in a dream
I lingered
in its stream
I hungered
      for a more vivid illusion
      more aesthetically pleasing
      to exist within a delusion
      and suddenly I was seizing
a stunning opportunity
enchanted and hypnotized
I waved good-bye to reality
and slowly opened my eyes
       and now I linger
       in the madness of a dream
       I no longer hunger
       consumed by my scream

James Swartz March 26, 2018 at 1:26 AM I am enchanted and hypnotized by these descriptive words waving goodbye to reality. I enjoyed this very much.

Emile Pinet March 21, 2017 at 2:38 PM You tell a story with such freshness and reality that it soon attaches itself to our reality and we take partial ownership of the emotions poured forth. Emile.

Paulette Calasibetta March 20, 2017 at 4:30 PM Sometimes it is hard to discern dreams from reality.....truly becomes a madness.

Chris Green March 20, 2017 at 3:34 PM That must've been some dream Christy if it is still ongoing. Once again, wonderfully creative and expressive.
