Raw ragged-edged perplexity
United in a soul's sacrifice.
Dutifully emotive and extensive.
Sloped ever so succinctly
into night-marish abysses.
Listlessly lamented illogically.
Wrapped tight with weather wars.
Chilly hot, icy cold, to name a few.
Sensing sensation's groping hands
wringing worthless wormy riddles
inside the ever ethereal cycle's circle.
What has no ending, middle or beginning?
Where does the light not shine?

a good piece with good alliteration and I especially like the ending...thanks for entering and good luck in the contest

Wow!!! Impressive...
Some great imagery here...
Loved the line 'Listlessly lamented illogically.' imagine trying to say that after a few drinks. lol!
The last few lines made me think of Oroboros (the snake eating its own tale, symbolising eternity)
All in all, another cracking write...
Well done!!!

WOWEEE
Well,,,,,,,, I for sure had to collaborate with my ole friend Mr. Webster on this one! lol Stunning use of vocabulary! Before I read that this was for a contest, and what that contest was asking for, I FOR SURE had not a clue what, or where this was going. After reading that, then I got the feel for your write, and began to understand. Beautiful piece. I wish you all the luck!

Thanks, I tried to write something for this contest, but most times I write too quickly; which dampens my outcome most times.
