Flight of fancy swoops
and captures the moment,
infinity stretches out to
the furthest reaches of the
vortex,
mindful of confusion;
Disarray scatters
to the four corners
of the subconscious
weaving it's magic
with intricate manipulations;
Shifting towards the purple darkness,
velvet gloved senses tease
with coaxing,
guiding the emotions onwards;
Magnolia softness tempts the
heat to rise,
with passionate words
rising and falling in time,
to the metronome
beating time;
An empty page...
gathering dust,
a forgotten chapter lingers,
no more the florid language of
enthusiastic aplomb,
more so a gentle concubine
waiting patiently for a sign,
a recognition of completion;
Speak quietly,
for my soul listens
for a muse to tempt
the sleeping awareness to life
and prolong this lifelong search ...
for perfection.


so thank you and bless you for taking the time and the trouble

Yes, I suppose it did read as if I had swallowed a thesaurus...I do have problems knowing where the line breaks should come and am always grateful for assistance. I did see the difference in your version and yes, it lays the emphisis where it should be. I will work harder with this. Many thanks for critique, I found it most constructive and precise.
