Notes About The Poem

Redamancy

Neon lights of love
glister from the strobic sphere.
Is my desire abhorrent?

My head, spinning with
each phantasmagoric twirl, 
yearns for your adoration.

Congratulations on your 3rd place, Linda. You have successfully brought the sedoka into the the 21st century with this innovative poem, abounding in metaphor, e.g. the extended metaphor of "strobic sphere", "spinning" and "twirl". You have successfully executed the contrast in the two stanzas -- the turn. Your concluding lines are the crux of the matter in each. Readers can relate -- the ultimate goal of any poem.

Perhaps, but why just two or three. Would it affect all of them. I can give it a try - won't hurt anything. :) Thanks!!
