Etcetera 4

An unmindful , grazing Zebra;

A shocking holy bath;

Magic and a shivering donkey !

Heaps of worn, cliched masks ;

A predestined, welcome gale;

Gales of loud laughter !

A single spotlight and many men;

A goldfish and two male cats;

A meteor coming closer !

Increasing breathing rate ;

Perspiration, a glass half full ;

Bed sheet with patterned

stains of salt !

This is one very random party! While I am still trying to worry about the Zebra becoming the donkey, I am smitten by the goldfish and two male cats. :D
Kidding aside, I love your crowd and the way you describe their pretense and many masks. It is beautifully absurd and very enjoyable. :)

There is a sublime absurdity to the poem that creates a totally surreal image.

Through the ripples of imagery I see beauty in words that linger in a hollow head resounding, sublime! Excellent read and write.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand. I'm poor in interpreting deep poems such as this. ;) Take it as a compliment. :)

[Anand Sehgal]
