Amidst the most substantial of phenomena,
the unforgettable malevolence of a
man, drawn by wealth towards a dream
of daylight and effervescence,
instigates an event of cataclysmic
magnitude, resulting in the untimeliest of
irreversible occurrences regarding homeric texts.
Insolent individuals, intent on
alleviating the immense burden of
an interplanetary indulgence of Iliad
anthologies, capitalized on an influx of
isosceles triangles into the indigenous sector.
Allocating an abundant accumulation of tomes
for their own indulgence, audacious argonauts
escaped effortlessly into the expanses of eden.
And the dish ran away with the electric sheep.

well i found something lol hehehe - Insolent individuals - now that is not nothing to me, it is something... or other. feck me - reading the rest of the poem though, i feel like vomiting up a lexicon. but i will just sit here and stare at the screen for a bit and hopefully look lik i am intelligent, even though the spittle is tickling my chin.

Errr...neither do I. haha However, I love your use of language, it seems to be charged and yet when you read into it, this poem does nothing but suggest nothing or anything. Reminds me of the poetry of Gwendolyn MacEven, some of her poetry creates as strange and misplaced landscape as this poem does. Well penned.

Thank you,
It was an odd poem to write, lol... and for some reason I threw in a whole bunch of alliteration in the middle just for the heck of it....
ah, the magic of poetry
