Premium Member Minimalist: Song of Despair
Hanging to his dwindling sanity
he haphazardly weaves a net
of confused and conflicting emotions.
Weakened by pangs of futility
the strained fine thread snaps...

POWERFUL CONCEPTS

enthralling

radiant
grandeur
bright emblems
 in freefall
of
nostalgiaa
  resembling
a
galaxy of
    frozen
spectacular
fragments
forever passing
as
drifting shadows
in an
astral accidentn

 explosions
of all kinds
painstakingly
  &
marvellously
 spread
out  greeting
the arrival
of the  deeply
 ambiguous
perhaps
 an allusion
 of  transformation
 something from
 nothing
  melted down
&
 refined
evocative of
minimalist
  tracery
in the
 abstract
of
 tangles
of
 vibrating  
clouds
through
the
 lens
of
beautiful
innocent
ignorance
potent
with
significance
 trying to speak
through
a  heap of
discarded matter
 subtle
& capacious
&
 drifting
a sense of a mind
unfolding
stretching
 adding
 words

Premium Member Meditation on Meaninglessness
In shadow's tomb—
A dim, aimless flicker...
Void's grip, timeless, claims all.

Fantomsound: life's song, a cognition in the null.

Rain, pain—
Stardust, dust, flesh, patternless on oblivions loom.

Decay's dance...

drips as color, inked and puddled
minutes like sable bristles, bound
laying down the hours as fading bands of value

New moonrise
Luna aura;
Misty magic

~~~~~~~~~


Swaying trees
Tender saplings;
Spring decor

Wet evening air
Weather ominous;
Midnight storm

Random faces
Crowded walkway;
Bus stop moments

Old lady smiles
Ask directions;
Someone helps

Minimalist
Artistic brush strokes;
Less is more

Dreary weather
Thunder punctuates;

Premium Member White Night

Snowflakes falling,
 
	gently landing- draping

		bare, outstretched
 
tree branches awaiting

	scintillating, flocculent,
 
		white ermine boas.

Exquisite silhouettes

	against winter's sky-

		glistening beneath 

full moon resplendence.
