Avoid the Bottleneck

Gardeners of speakeasy seed
pleasing cloud's breeze
over bottled reality.

Neutralization passed out-
an empty bar stool spun
to squeak out conversation.

Serene squeals sold wisdom
at five dollars a shot;
bang, all contenders hit the floor.

A twitch of nose and flicker
of tongue, came about one
whose doubt, less forgotten.

The crowded scene, an ocean, but
four evil eyes peer into souls
destined to partake in rituals.

A knife, the heart; the life, a start ...

Proclaim that which is yours,
the resound beat, palpitating
to my biorhythmic consort.

    A very intricate piece of abstract detail. Great use of imagery and metaphor, nicely penned.

    "Proclaim that which is yours,
    the resound beat, palpitating
    to my biorhythmic consort."

    These lines most especially... Thank you for your entry!!!
