the manner
of time
 in
rapid moments
    bustling streets
a metropolitan buzz
collision&
  melodrama
 of crammed alleys
excess
 a teeming hell
perpetual fluctuation
yellowed mouldy
flamboyant
   evoked higgledy piggledy
teeming&
  tangled


THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

INLETS OF BEAUTY
Shell like and thin,without and

co-incide.Straight rays from the
eyes,horizontal,perpendicular,
grace with beauty personified.
Simplicity,intricacy uniformity

will ever please.Allegory,riddle

ill-shaped,adds greatness to grace,

face.Lines  entwine,twisting
