All the ambitious clouds
And the lugubrious winds
Of the fickle winter will
Wage wishy washy war
Without warrant for
The oak tree stump by the
Ubiquitous bog, alas!
Contumely the days
Eager in their esoteric
Hours and retrograde
In their retarded seconds
Succumb to the birch boughs
Of a translucent and too slick
Cricket bat after the integral
Butterfly of bozo comes a
Cropper, indeed!
Sanguine sergeants steer
Stealthily seaward in their
Arch ark of birch bark
Till the reticent and twice
Reluctant cows return to
Their stellar abodes,
Sea snakes slime the slim
Sea shores of an inebriate
Beach at the slam bang
Center of the lackadaisical
Lollapalooza lagoon.
High jinx clears clammy crustaceans
From flimsy fish fossils
Always….
Ah, always and ever the
Explicit ground mist!

Wow, amazing! You have such talent, girl! WOW WOW WOW!!! I loved how you tried to use words with the same sounds (is that called alliteration?)!

I am admiring your weirdness...
I might start a weird contest because the talent explodes like dynamite here and I am blinking in admiration and affection for this wonderfully talented poet whose lines cause images of another planet to appear in my mind.

Wow! I love the alliteration. At first I wasnt impressed with your bigger vocab, for I am not a fan of people who try hard to use every "big" word possible, but I really liked your use of them. I can see that it was purposeful. Thank you for joining!

sounds ring as satire, yet I can hardly pin it down, I have enjoyed this well, and shall read it again soon
