Relapsing away from


Cracks of steel
                  Shimmer white do the walls
Plastic revelations, reveal a twist of mind,   feel
Alive, that very moment, best you’ve felt----injected
&       Here it is, once again, once again           Now comes
A Reckoning   hour  I won’t recall, as who am I grows small

Fact or dreaming                       inflicted by
The         Flash*********Words            appeal
Bulb bright- bulb red
Jointlyventured

  2. Brian, so glad you enjoyed it. Projective verse is very fun, I'd do more of it but it takes a certain mood to nail one down. Wish I had more moments like I did when writing this. Especially glad you picked up on the wordplay, which is something I enjoy more than anything else when writing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

  5. mindlovemisery, thank you so much for the kind words. You can, anyone can, compose projective verse. They're a blast to write and not as difficult as one might think. Projective verse is a style where the words on the page reflect the senses they project. I start off by writing the poem. I then read it over. If I feel it has a lot of words that can be toyed with I start changing things within the poem, font, size, spacing etc. I keep changing things and then save every time I like what I see. I don't find myself doing them as often as I may like, probably because the poem written seems to fit another style better. I guess my suggestion would be to play around with certain poems you've already composed and see what you can get. Just my thought, but again glad you enjoyed this poem
