Uncomposed Madness

Piercingly epodic passages, indistinguishable as snowflakes to the discerning eye, perceived as prevised precept, distinct misgivings groveling about ego's mucky absolution, flaunting deeply defiled relevance as a sense of self-gratifying value, lost art's impetuous reevaluations mid suspicions' efficaciousness transference of slurred refrain's beat tempo, cascading between spaces forgotten & remembrance's sake swirled within inky ravishment of acknowledged exhalations, melodic memories' unhinged metronome arrangements played like escaped violin strings on fire, the truth will burn a path of whorling relentless reflection dancing on quarter tone's double sharp notes, tucked aside as life's dispassionate poetry unfurls in uncomposed madness

Paloma, is that just your longer way of saying ... all y'all are crazy, but I'm a little more dinged than all of y'all. If so, welcome to this mad, mad, mad, mad world of poetry. "Uncomposed Madness" has a strange beat to it. To know true madness means to be stripped naked of our intellect, thus being unable to construct words to describe the experience of what it's like being in a state of madness. Your poems always spark an existential fire in my soul. A thinker's poem. Love always to you.

No direction is indicated as we travel these lines and phrases of poetic madness, turning corners, jumping speed bumps, breaking limits on dark dead end streets only to come to a screeching halt when the ending arrives. Nicely done Paloma
