from the furtive

 

 

immerse me in similes

you know the real me, I am without metaphor

not  a number one, not even a top ten

a bit damaged and lacking in abilities

there is only a mortal at this portal

like a gathering of sighs, I am illusive

in a weird world that is crazy and abusive

 

bury me with imagery

no reality show here, I lack description

a distant, solitary shape disappearing again

an ordinary shell as if I am in transparent skin
required by convention and the run of the mill fears

listen to me, I am talking to the vestibule of your ears

a presentation from the furtive, where nothing is clear

Dear Mortal At The Portal

You are not a # anything, you are a warlock and have magic beyond counting when weirding words with wonderous will. I enjoy reading your work. ~Allets~

thank you

means alot to me

these words coming from allets,

warlock hmmm.... I only conjure what my audience of readers will allow.

it is hard to find anytime these days,

so much going on and too much other stuff gets in the way.

I conjurer with all my might,

I want another hour or two to play.

Just for me. And the words I see...

Alas, tis not meant to be.

Peace
