Sillhouettes
above my bed.
Entrancing
Sheep Jumping
Unable to count
Wide eyes
Stare blank
Up
To the Pop corn
Ceiling.
Making figures
from flakes.
Dancing
in my head
Twirling
Nothing said
Feeling
the dewed grass
upon my toes
In a place
you'll never know
Drifting
from conscienceness
Into sublime
Away from the world
Closer
Ever so closer
To Mine
Faeries flutter
Knomes menace
the flowers
pink and green
blue and purple
Swaying in the
aromatic wind
scents of love
Romance
This
my world
of wonder
My escape
from the norm
I sit upon this
neon
Shroom
Gazing up
to
the bright green
sky.
Relaxing
Enjoying
The Forest around me
Surroundings
Overly
Dramatic
Swirls in the sky
Poetry in the wind
Whispering
Lullabies
Through the forest
Past the trees
The mythical creatures
The winged beasts
Fly
In the open sky
In harmony
With the muse's
Music
Dancing
Singing
writing
The words so clear
The moon is setting
my time here
Is over
I lift to the sky
Flying
Over the trees
Over the love
Over the mystical
balads
of
lore
Into my window
Upon my bed
My eyes awake
The real world it calling
I have no choice but to answer
Stretching out my arms
pushing the covers away
Standing up
Slowly
Sighing
"So This is the life,
Of a Slave"

Hehe. Thank you very much for your comment. I haven't read this one in a long time. I've enjoyed re-reading it though. I'm ever so glad that you enjoyed it. =]
It's so weird to look back so far. I remember I was on flvs when writing this!!

bomb as hell
Yo, I really dig your style, and the words just captivating. You really conjured up the surreal surrounding of the mind unleashed in it's unconscious flight through eternity

Aw

I really like this poem, reminds me of some of my own. Similar content but different style. I love the neon shroom part, very psychedelic

Enigmatic! Heart-pounding! My rhythm went a little irregular! Powerful form...words...images and messages...very intriguing, odd, unique...I love it!

Thank you for the beautiful entry to my contest,
I really love the wonderful dream you have used here in this great poem, I love the details the thoughts and the beautiful imaginary you have used I can see you sitting on a neon green mushroom, and the popcorn celing is a wonderful description, I like the flow of this poem it seems to be long but it works so wonderfully, this is my favorite part
Drifting
from consciousness
Into sublime
Away from the world
Closer
Ever so closer
To Mine
I think you have misspelled conscienceness it should be “consciousness”
as always keep up the wonderful writing, ~Amy

I dig it
I loved the mystical imagery and the format used.
I like how there's no real punctuation, so it kinda gives the feeling of flowing on and on, sort of dream-like in even it's format.
-
lovely decription of this "dreamscape" which is a perfectly suiteing and unique title keep it up!!
-
fantastic write, has a fairytale look it were it talkes about mystical creatures and i love how you talk about waking up and such, great job and good luck
-
what a beautiful dream
i felt like i was floating reading it -
Very good! I really enjoyed it. I love the imagery, you describe the dreamscape so well, it's so vivid and when reading this, I actually feel like I've been there before. I really especially enjoyed the format that you used here. I love the broken lines, it's always my favorite way to read and write poetry. I just don't write a lot of poetry this style because I'm not very good at keeping my sentences to just a few words. Sorry to ramble, but a very wonderful, brilliantly written poem. Great job!!!
-
lovely poem, a tad hodge podge in some places, but an excellent write nonetheless.
-
Not quite
Well it's over the line limit, and I also have to admit that I didn't read it all the way through. What I did notice from what I read though was that there was only one comma at the very end. And while the dream its self seemed interesting the format in which you were presenting it made it difficult to get through. I believe line breaks can be used in place of commas if you work it right. However, in this piece you break after ever three or four words without completeing a thought. Keep at it though, and if you like it as is then pish posh what I think, it's about what you think... well except for in this contest. Thank you for entering regardless. -
Hey, thanks for you comment on my poem
thought i'd check out some of yours.
I love this! Its such a flight of beautiful fancy. I like the form also, it sounds contemplative. Very pretty language! Going to check out more ^.^ x

-
OMG that was awesome!
i love the way you drifted the words into dreams then wake up in a different reality ^.^ that totally rocked an your words play so great like "muses music" repeats mu an "sky flying" repeats the rhyme inside the rhyme o.o awesome!

You often say how talented I am ' in comparison' to you and within this piece you have proved that you are beyond compare. The imagery inside this piece is mind blowing. You have raw talent. It's pure and perfect, I wish I could hold my talent as obviously as you do.
-
-
Well, you're just silly. You're amazing. I just got lucky with this piece. I was having a good week.
