Paloma P Poet Imagism

Shady Jedi Mind Tricks

Wherefrom poetry shades recall,
and the other side of yesterday
is but a dreamt hallucination,
can't see the foliage from trees'
darkly forested boundaries,
insofar as frivolous moonbeams 
agitate sun's glorified imagism 
'midst hues of baubled madness
& vaporous sentiments are replete
within day-trippers' remote motives,
shadowing delusional chicanery
of rosé-tinted Jedi mind tricks

Ha ha ha. Love the space age hip-trip ride. Gotta hang on tight when I go down your Alice-in-Poetland rabbit holes. Ty for the thrill ride though. Love always. RW
