Dreamt skyscapes catalyze a euphoric ideal, bearing a veil over insidious virtues. Haunting deprivation lacerates preconceived perceptions, undermining isolation in clarity. Existence in solitude provides opportunity for periphery obliteration, only with the omnipresent perception of a thousand eyes.

There are no points of reference for the reader to judge where they are or even to access the interior of the poem. Much like an inside joke overheard by a stranger on a train, it left me feeling confused and - worse - excluded.

I am no expert but you asked for critical reviews (I truly hope this helps) Karen

Try reading my love poems and don't try to copy it, that's totally not what I'm saying but just see it from that perspective. Reading other's poems makes your poetry a little better because you either see what it is that they are doing right and what they are doing wrong. It definitely has potential but it needs a little work in your wording and the rhythm.
