Promised a Poesy Garden

In the shadows of a
    darkly relinquished night,
 an unrelenting musing beast struck
       presenting a proposition,
         as he pranced about
           viscous vision's intentions,
promised a copious poesy garden
        'tween early morn's
            buttercup metaphors
              & dusk's poppy delusions,
danced 'til lavishly penned spirits
    were indubitably unleashed 
        exploding 'neath elliptical eclipses;
whence the sun it did bounteously appear
    midst all its magnificent splendor,
        whilst Delphic inky nectar dripped
           deliberately descending beyond
                   hellbent scripted passages,
           vying vaporous voids of creation 
                'pon prolifically paradisaical poetry

I certainly hope he doesn't come around me! I love the alliteration and actually find this amusing, Paloma. I know mental blocks aren't funny but i found your description humorous.

So, mission accomplished! I'll try to persuade her to keep her distance. :)
