Poetry Dice Challenge #5: Subconscious Spew - A Parasitic Intraterrestrial Encounter.

in #art8 years ago

Introspective spy glass, a momentary subjective glance inwards, magnifying hidden deeds and ideas.

Embarking homeward, towards the place in which truths reside and secrets hide, an internal construct of menacing fears.

Knowledge of what may sprout is concealed entirely from the author, as ink touches paper it springs forth from the page, blooming as a sapling shooting after rain.

Following the downpour comes a subconscious spew of iridescence words, the once clouded and secretly guarded notions are now scrawled in a vibrant technicolour arch of pain.

Fearful of the depth of this microcosmic sphere, delving into this intrinsic world requires careful navigation, it's a risky exploration intent on global transcendence.

To dwell in this place is to risk succumbing to its escalating gravity and magnetism, drawing away from the physical realm, eventually eroding the capacity for impedance.

Extrinsic communication diminishes as reception of internal dialog intensifies, once no more than a subconscious murmur it now reverberates and obscures correspondence from the outside world, distorting perception and obstructing transmission.


Thanks for checking out my entry for @robyneggs poetry dice challenge.
My entry describes how I draw (and now write). I seldom know what I am drawing, it pretty much unfolds as I scribble. I seem to have the same approach to the rambling construction of words too.

Sort:  

i think i understood the poem but the image is something else!

That's a fair appraisal.
A bit of a ghastly one I have to admit. A stark contrast to your lovely piece, congratulations on a beautiful and logical submission.

Thanks. Also re-reading your piece, I think it would work well as a short story.

No it's an ode to rambling spews of subconscious rubbish masquerading as poetry, it accomplishes that quite well I think, so I think it's fine to say it. I have been guilty of ammeter postings before on steemit, and I'll unapologetically do it again, accompanied with a little doodle.
My ego doesn't require stroking, but thank you for your kind words.
Steemit posting is a contrast to my actual work. It's a fun life balance endeavour. I have never done any kind of creative writing before, so I'm completely aware my offerings are far from polished masterpieces.
As for a short story, I have never written one, but stranger things have happened.
Steemians can be a little too polite, but the positive inclusive nature of it is the very thing that had me hooked.

EPIC ILLUSTRATION!
