Monarchy
And paper mache
Bits of glue taint and stain
Ink filled faces
Civility
And sweet-smelling pesticides
A Spreading concentration
Of second-hand thoughts
Superficiality
Needed just as much
As it is not
As we continue
clashing candy swords..
licking them away
Author notes

Excellent
I think this achieves a lot as a sensual poem - it works well on the senses with aromas and a very visual content. The imagery was excellent and really drew my attention. This is a thoughtful poem with a lot of originality.
