(1) when I am wrapped with a feeling of ecstasy: monoku of 17 syllables or fewer contest prompt a momentary dreamscape in rose tinted formaldehyde

What a brilliant way of preserving a moment of imagined ecstasy Dilly, a superb monoku full of abstract meaning, you certainly nailed this one, no goggles needed, great one for contest, cheers David

I imagine this one is an acquired taste, but I'm not really a writer of pretty poems. I did congratulate my brain for offering me something so unusual though haha thanks for the enthused comment :)

Want to preserve that moment, do you? Only in memories unless we get a repeat performance.

umm yeah, ok And a sunset can get us high, too. Good poetry, no matter how many or few syllables leaves i's meaning open for interpretation.

It's very difficult to preserve a high but still, regardless, better to fully immerse in the moment rather than fret about it being short lived! Why formaldehyde popped in my head when I wrote this I don't know but decided it was interesting if not completely poetic :) haha you said performance, not me, maybe I was referring to a special box of chocolates lol :) either way, it could take the art world by storm :)
