On beginning to compose a new poem...

On beginning to compose a new poem...

Assaying thoughts gambol,
scuffling as in an affray
née crushing, jockeying, stampeding...
demanding equal airplay
gushing as metaphorical think
spigot turned on full force airway
thru totally tubular cerebral

microcosmic aisleway
vesicular conduit fifty
plus shades of gray
exhaling sigh of relief, cuz
transcending writer's block
innovative talent with words
did once again allay
needless panic, where yours truly

finds himself punchdrunk
in some dark alleyway,
an unfortunate fate
Matthew Scott alway
avert reminding myself
to utilize ujjayi breath
hard driving gateway
into Pranayama practices

analogous to make
emotional transit thru
golden itty bitty
teensy weensy archway
infinitesimal impossible mission
to pinpoint areaway,
yet crisscrossing meditative
zen zone an array

of utmost nirvana
will never lead effortless
mantra buffeted concentration
not lead astray
and matter of fact
lightness of being
scaling metaphorical kickstarting

rah height aweigh
up yonder within
outer limits twilight zone
re: supraconsciousness
keeping at bay
non intrusive thoughts
ruff lee collaring, mimicking belay
boring bonafide dog obedience training
pant tum miming (think) begging

for limp bizkit, thus
canine loosens seat belt buckle
one notch braving violating
no trespassing sign
despite petsmart restriction
heavy populated wall tint
head nab yule Haitian

made Christmas benday
eerily resembling voodoo
cursed poppet summoned
if anybody doth betray
not being spellbound
hence, blithely skipping
reading future poetry (mine)
magic edict I dost bewray.

Good morning Matthew, 

I almost missed this new poem of yours. So glad, I found it. While I'm looking up the words in the dictionary, I can say that your attention to word choices and word associations is utter brilliance. I may not be able to understand it all, but that is more of a reflection of how I read a poem. Thanks for sharing your poem. 

I look forward to writing a poem with you. It should be amazing! I cannot wait, to begin a new journey with words (yet, to learn). 

Favorite part

finds himself punchdrunk
in some dark alleyway,

Incredible detail paid to imagery and thought process -- searching for imagination, creativity, new thought patterns -- brainstorming has begun.

Good work!

ah... so sweet to accept profuse adulations, commendable, entrancing... transfixing, welcomed, zesty word usage courtesy myself, who directed a couple of messages to your screenname. did you receive them?

I intimate ye as a worthwhile woman to befriend even if communication solely linkedin to cyberspace.

herewith continues a newly started tradition to spring another poetic to find enjoyable.

Kaleidoscopic Whorled Wide Web = thee title
 
against light source well crafted tubular structure

appended with eyepiece gazing

offers viewer eye-opening, mind boggling

instantaneously birthing then vanishing

resplendent myriad colorful geometric awesome

shifting shapes hypnotizing

sight seer into a whirling gigolo where multifaceted

fractals display pin-wheeling

arithmetically perfect  triangulate squarely

with proportionate arcs astounding

with blind faith on microscopic scale analogous

to cosmic big bang spellbinding

mankind from time immemorial when

her/his gaze turned heavenward peering

into azure vault – one macrocosmic

when on-looking proto-humans ruminated inscrutably

enamored at spectacular eminence grise

forever holding mystery of universe evolution

in shroud of secret continually 

mystifying one generation after another

until twenty first century astrophysicists

begin to unravel evolutionary tale writ small

on planet earth yet storied tome

pried open from scientific revolutions enabling

birth of cosmos honed with more     
      
fine tuned precision to zero in on precise

second whence explosion filled void

with nebulous material coalescing into

rudimentary galactic masses generating

vast surfeit of globular structures evincing

conically swirling millennial futuristic clear cut entities

upon which one – namely gaia

finds this sole member homo sapiens

reveling in his makeshift primitive contrivance

teasing ocular sense with visual orgasms

begetting thought provoking questions into

this eternal wonderment

that perchance some intelligent deity willfully

rotates planet like some plaything         
 
synonymous with mere mortal peering

into magic of kaleidoscope!
