You are one crazy dude William, but in a good way! This wacky, imagery filled nonsensical poem hit all the right notes. Nice contribution pal

Once more, your contest being the impetus, hails as the most viewership for nearly all of April -- equally with that 04/02 (a ghost story), and lagged behind by 1 on 04/15 (another sci fire), with my gratitude always to you both, Aloha, William

unique and creative word play in this contest entry. Your poem fits the bill for it's surrealism personified (play on words intended) :-) enjoy your evening, Sara

Ghost Stories will connect dots between the two as relevant to each other--and pertinent only to me, --it could be my redemption to the losses and sufferings, or merely prattle. Thanks, Sara, eve yet to be let alone dusk, be the period that is exclaiming its point of existence to be enjoyed. Aloha, William
