Tranquil-sour aperture
pinged sequester's sequins.
Dull and underexposed, her
sovereignty spilled Mellow Yellow,
tithed alabaster curves in
micturition.
Lemon drops never felt so tasty-
loyalists to the end,
again and again.

"Imagined the future,
woke up with a scream.
I was buying some feelings
from a vending machine."

Made me feel you got the lemon drops and the Mellow Yellow from the vending machine and of course those are metaphors!!
You always pen such fascinating stuff that makes me pause and think (my poor blonde head
)
Micturition goes well with the spilling of the mellow yellow... urine? lol
Cool take!

I've been doing the title thing for quite a while ... sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. heheheh It forces my imagination to think out of the box more.

You are such a clever weaver of imagery to thought!!! There is so much depth to provoke the mind throughout - even quite a few mind-boggling words to make me read again and again...
"Tranquil-sour aperture
pinged sequester's sequins."
.. what an opening here hun, incredible presence ..
Excellent pen you have there!

This is sooo WEIRD! In a positively AMAZING way of course. I couldn't help but giggle at the tongue twisting formula you concocted her. Nice!

this next part of this statement maybe embarrassing to me
I can't believe I'm going to tell you this.. Mellow Yellow
that was the song that pinned to me in 8th grade... lol
excellent poem... I always love your poems no matter how many words I need to look up.. I look them up for you and my other brother... excellent..
I think the pressure of being in over my head is going to cause me to slowly back out of the room.. and snag my poem as I walk by..
good luck

Nice.(I know I said that twice.)

So you were gonna use your res. title up to this one.
"Tranquil-sour aperture
pinged sequester's sequins."
I actually think the possessive form would be stronger if it was "sequestered sequins" but meh. I haven't been feeling possessive forms lately, with some exceptions.
"Dull and underexposed, her
sovereignty spilled Mellow Yellow,
tithed alabaster curves in"
Oh I love "Mellow Yellow". YUMMY
"Lemon drops never felt so tasty-
loyalists to the end,
again and again."
*raises eyebrow*
Lemons are an awesome flavor.
This was tasty.
Good luck
