Horizon Winkling Cosmos

wobbling
   earth
      Phoebus
          slipover
               &
            winkling
                horizon
                       mind thrums
                 cliffhanging
             rhyming
             &
         static reach
     cooling
brisk air
                     
                             autumn ribbons
                         nettled
                    disgruntled
                       &
                 kibitzed
             stillborn moon
         thought
 molds around
          cornucopia curvatures
                       &spine

silken rustles
       &
  wind sweeping
       spawning
           slices 
              of 
                 arctic time
                        swaggering
                  sight&smell
              memories
        no privilege
      of 
    quietus
born crane
        &wings
              nuzzled 
                     in 
                       uncured coves
                and shade
                  of 
           huddled house
       deep-dug
 to shingle

                                  no clouds
                               swell
                              &
                           no taste
                      moisten
                 dust-dry 
        rhizomes
             sun stretches&
                    tired meadow
                           with swung
                                       gold
                                & brown
                             stalk 
                       twilights
                    sharp
                   &
        seed shrunk
 dwindled

          green promise
                equanimous
                       spinous
                             pernicious
                                  posthumous
                        laden with agony
                    except 
               poets
      ensnared 
         in 
              necropolis
                   dusk dumps
                             
                                 cosmos
                        cupping crystal&
                 protean oaths
              dawdling
            delving
       digging
  drizzling
       attic wound
               pauperized
                                cloister
                         willowy gleam
                   orphaned
             wadded
      writhe
within shell
        between
             consciousness
                         &
                     humanity nexus
                                  started from

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.
