Dwindling minds
breeds clarity,
exhaling paved trepidation,
as gilded moon tides
shadow my fading lucidity.

Too much lucidity makes you suffer, makes you cry..
lucidity in this crazy life we live in... illusion is better...

Is this what I seek? loud gratitude and a soon end.
Words once comforting
They seem so fake
Expression is vulnerable. Can I come out of this Darkness, yet?
Waves in my tranquil sea.
Happiness; Is it worth it all?
Thoughts became a past
Don't you want something from me?
A maze in a way.
Where's my path on shaky ground?
I stumble, but I don't want to give in.
I crumble, fall, die. Unfairness
I have arrived here, where am I?
It travels in my veins, and my mind, concurring my thoughts
I'll fight for this insight
my hope, the kind darkness.
side by side.

Good writing , like gold , combines lustrous lucidity with high density. What this means is good writing is packed with hints. ~ Eric Hoffer
And should I cherish lucid moments of my day
to dwell on how my words will paint the blue vellum?
Or dream that in those lucid thoughts may lie the way
to philosophies protected by dark pelham?
Soon to write my thoughts in a pleasing structured form,
I turn to flow my life for all to analyze.
Is it eloquence I seek, or a bright brainstorm
to loosely form coherent thoughts and crystallize?
Basking in boastful brilliance, words outflow freely,
purest unbridled revelry is extended
to writing fraught with inner secrets genteelly
hidden in subtle between-the-lines pretended.
Laying my pen aside, I read what is written.
Word by word, in silence, I am humbly smitten.

I struck the raw edges
Jagged scraps
my shards
thunders like waves of anger
on your shore breeze sighed
to ride the wind
sunrises past my dismay
odious side of dark
souvenirs blazing
fade in
skyline silken sun song
propel blimps
orthopter wings
&
draw dusk aches
with burning shapes
& endless rapturous sinew
crimson philharmonic!
grateful life flows
beyond obvious
bestowal affection in a diamond hour
lucidness
climbing longing
velvet whispers
spectrum choir

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
