Senselessly Composed Creativeness

tout de suite

Forthwith, poetry will be viewed upon

   as an apropos diversion to sensibilities,

redirecting absurdity and delusions

  farthermost uncontrived versed frenzy

   of artfully affecting expressed proportions,

howbeit ever so preposterously scripted 

   despite conversely noted rhetorical pomp,  

effectively engaging pertinent imagery to

 convey order that which bleeds inky revelations,

   penned midst aptly veracious manifestos'

     idiosyncratic burning defiance of epic clichés, 

unreservedly compelled 'tween contentious

  controversy & senselessly composed creativeness

Quite so!!!!

'.. of epic clichés, ~ unreservedly compelled 'tween contentious ~ controversy & senselessly composed creativeness .. '

Guess we're all apt to attempt cleverness - okay, i raise my hand - guilty. There's a something that nudges hands to use letters as if toys or weapons, trying to show a convoluted strength. And you've laughed hysterically in that very fault.. sin.. misapprehension.. with a briliant piece of writing.

When you prepared this post, if you did... you showed self as a fine mind and a great sense of humour. Love it!

Oh you've outed my intentions, we're all in the same poetic boat, I laugh at myself and mine own poetry quite often! Thanks for the smile this morning.

[emmajoy]

A smile an' 'nod at least ten characters long. Or should i say lengthy, prolonged, extravagant, long-winded, never-ending!

[1VJ]

You should, and you did. Smiling again here...

[emmajoy]

Smiling and believe me, not had much of that today. Thank you..

I admit I clicked on this one because the title is just so me :) turns out the rest of it is too, all over the place a yum cha of everything and nothing all at the same time only to realise that certain combos just don't work...oh well. Such a clever write, sublime lines brilliantly crafted. R xo

[1VJ]

Glad you could relate, love 'yum cha'. :) Thanks for your kind words

[Lydia Shutter]

"inky revelations" can be cliché....it is allowed, doncha know? Those manifestos written by poets in the dark of night are the ones we will read and attempt to decipher till the end of time. I think there is a bit of tongue in cheek humor here. We needn't take ourselves too seriously! I liked it. Lydi**

[1VJ]

You got it, never take myself seriously!:) Thanks Lydi.

geez that is what is wrong with my poetry...it is all about delusion and absurdity...and i, the writer, am actually the cliche trying to pass as a metaphor.

[1VJ]

That's a poem in itself, thanks Jacob.

I love this! Sometimes poetry is a splat of multiple ideas, thoughts, feelings, congealed into one sometimes confusing and oft misinterpreted package.:)

[1VJ]

Exactly! The best part of poetry. :) I love reading the translations. Thanks so much for your attentive reviews today, much appreciated!

[Lyn Anderson]

You are very welcome. I enjoy the break from my obsessive compulsive reorganising. It is past the point of no return, but the pace has now slowed to a crawl. Silly me. Big plans to put all my poems into books and now realising that is a helluva pile of work.:)

[1VJ]

Poetry and OCR don't jive. :)

[Woody]

God, the choice of words in this one is mesmerizing Paloma. brilliant. this is in a class of its own.
I've never thought of poetry that way but then I'm not a poet.

[1VJ]

I nearly missed this exquisite review, thanks so much Woody, I'm bloody chuffed to bits! :)

[Ruth]

Goodness, Paloma...this is sensational writing! The use of certain words is enthralling and makes for a brilliant read and re-read :) Excellent :)

[1VJ]

Coming from you, someone who's poetry I much admire, that means a lot, thank you Poppy!

[Ruth]

My pleasure Paloma, truly :)

I love this Paloma. "despite conversely noted rhetorical pomp"/ which poetry is, most of the time anyways.
It is because we think were speaking to the masses yet we are only speaking to other poets..Kinda like prayer, I guess, where it requires a certain amount of faith in order to steady your resolve.
Crane hated to be referred to as a poet, saying that to be one is effete and without any real substance.
But poetry bares the soul to the silence of humanity like running naked thru time's square at midnight.
That's why you wake up sometimes exhausted from having spent the night thinking of what might
stir the world tomorrow..

Your amazing/ dana

[1VJ]

Wow, I'm speechless, thanks so much Dana!

[Einstein Noodle]

sooooooooo you watched the debates didn't you?!! ;) i'm in a little trouble i think as my sensibilities are always diverted by the absurdities ...the mundane of retirement has no colors ..
seriously ...i think you covered it all .. can't imagine the muse that moved this "Senselessly Composed Creativeness" ... a real challenge to remain focused reading such convoluted brilliance! poetry is all that isn't it!?

Oh that would have been a much more serpentine poem. :) You're far from colorless sir! Many thanks for your thoughts.
