written for an ai generated picture prompt... not sure if i got this form right but just trying something new.

why do we still assume that whispered diamond dialects delicate and sheer aren't scripted with blades that curdle blood-stained musings as summer symphonies scorch ebony skin tattooed with dark and deep sinister sonnets sewn from superficial scarlet syllables that emanate rusted mahogany hues so listen to the mulberry metaphors that rain with roseate rhymes from the hazy melancholic midnight skies where not every mist of dust becomes a halcyon teal blue rivulet of passionate poetry nor do they mirror the wind carrying unspoken tale that is veiled beneath twinkling twilight tides

Are you listening to mulberry metaphors? You always have a unique way with words and I used roseate in my poem today.... oh that halcyon teal blue rivulet of passionate poetry.. always the best poetry in so many ways.. hope you can see beyond those twinkling twilight tides... great poem dear.

You are mastering so many forms of poetry, dearest Inky, my mind boggles. As always brilliantly written, full of so many beautiful lines, its hard to choose, however, the last three lines really resonated with me. Hugs

Kudos my friend for trying out so many different forms. I tried to read the rules of the contest so I could write informed comments on your poem--but I gave up--too complex for my comprehension--and not worth the trouble. Nice blend of imagery woven with emotion and poetic devices, as always, Ink.

This is an intriguing verse, adorned with an exceptional climax "beneath twinkling twilight tides", brilliantly sewn with painstakingly selected language that effortlessly coalesces, prompting wonder and displaying absolute grandeur. Your poem is expertly woven, if it's for a contest that's a sure winner. BOL
