Long Synthetic Poems

Someone who knows
Said You were an old ancient Tree,

after million escapades of 
blindfolded fate, I'm trespassing
through the pirouetting pigments

...It took several weeks, but he quickly found
a strange chemical to the water bound,
clearly synthetic, so he went online,

Absorbed by glowing colors on the wall
Their jaws slack, fetid whiff, unwashed and dank
Arrested minds the blue screen does enthrall
