The disposition of my multiplicity

aphoristic in the dewdrop of words

comparable to tar

compose poetry in the corners of my gaze

devouring gloom

until I phospherece

and radiance becomes crystalline in my pores

magenta and alabaster berry drops

painting roses on my choking vines

no sword could rend asunder

for they are the ribbons

that hold my paper skin in place

and the thorns

are the crown

that keep my nightmares

from flooding the world

firstly - Awesome, and by that I mean full of awe.
Love the image of crystaline radiance in your pores. That line alone was worth the price of admission!
Some poems make me soar with joy, others cry at the pain. There is definitely some pain behind this, but the imagery lifts this piece to one that needs to be savored. It's like a small child peaking out behind the back of your older self showing the pain on her face. We have to look because she is so beautiful, but we wish we could take that pain away.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Some very interesting philosophical thoughts... kind of an extension of the saying "That that doesn't kill me will only make me stronger touched with your creative flare.

[Lachenille Papillion]

This is you, being you... doesn't get better than that~

[Jibey]

Exploding with vitality and bubbling like a caldron with images of rich riot, a reminder of the cathartic and ordering effect of poetry

[Chloe..Across the Unive..]

I like the image too, of crystalline radiance in pores.
Magenta and alabaster berry drops.. a lovely line.. your poetry is very
deep in many ways.. like an ocean full of so many species of aqua life.. a variance of so many things..beautiful.

"and the thorns

are the crown

that keep my nightmares

from flooding the world"

We all might need this crown.

The flow of this is top notch..as are the images. I always love getting lost in your Stream of Conscious flow... don't let the world keep you down...rise up and glow under your own light...and know that your fears are not the truths of the world. This was beautiful, all of it.

[Bard Constantine]

Love the intertwining of darkness and light, that eternal dance, the war within that always teeters on the edge of losing... yet somehow despite the pain we manage to hold on...

and radiance becomes crystalline in my pores. Your poem was beautiful. Thankyou

[Jūdan FyreHeart]

Absolutely beautifully done as always! The way you use all the senses and delve into the realms between the senses and planes pushing the reader to consider and muse. Excellent job, fantastically crafted =D

[Maurice]

A riot of images that sends the senses into rapture.

[Peter Joseph Swanson]

Fabulous and fabulously done to give me a moment of art, a hint of the threat of other's nightmares, and all in huge glamor!
