Moral Monsoon

Shaken snow globe disarray 
Stark format unfamiliar 
Relocated mountain ranges
Jacket assets of chameleon 

Wobbled flesh given for return
Eyeballers display dollars 
Fixated focus planted firm
Subject unacknowledged 

Drifting body parts ignite 
Lust of lurid possibility 
From actuality retired
Maggot eaten depravity 

Gyraters' slip into depiction 
Resigned, pilot drives auto
Puckered faces maintain rhythm 
Minds' contents, peeled potato 

Stiletto gripping charicature
Formed from Adam's vital rib
Collared stilled near provocatuer
Audience outcome pathetic

Satirical image conjured as ideal
Patron clean faced gullible 
Sensation powders scene unreal
Hand fulls of snowballs - impossible!

Wow, Sigrid. Your imagery is brilliant and striking. I read through several of your poems and then read them again and each time more revealed. Some of it is challenging to penetrate at first, but worth the effort and then some. I'm hooked! I hope others here on PS will discover these. What a rare talent!

Oh gee! Thank you for your time, Eric. It means a lot to me. Each writer wants to know (I do)! that it translates. Really appreciate the message, Eric.
