I am alive with Clarity
My Intuition bursts through my Murky mind
As I feel Forever Dusty in my sexual desires
Jaded I am not -
Yet sitting under a Shaddow of my New Life meaning
I use to feel Alive with reason
Yet continuiously frustrated and sexually Obscene
I feel Quiet yet urging to perform the X-rated -
On a solo quest to feel sexually Young again
True to myself I lay in a haze of lost youth.
I'm such a twit, I posted it on my poems page instead of here! I hope that you like it!

A place so quiet with obscene clarity,
A place so placid, unusual and dusty,
So vast in it's shadow sincerity,
So murky, gaping and rusty,
This place so alive and eager,
This place so new and wise,
It's reason, it's purpose so meager,
It's life, better it will devise,
This place will be forever elated,
This place will be forever true,
It can be zany and X-rated,
It can be jaded and taboo,
A place so young yet mature,
A place so hurtful yet refined,
This place is intuition, this place demure,
This place opposition, this place is my mind.
Well that didn't take me as long as I thought it would. I guess twenty minutes isn't too bad. I had the most trouble coming up with a way to fit in "Zany" without it seeing to be so far off beat. In any case, I fit in all the words. You didn't really give any rules other than to use all the words so I hope this fits what you were looking for.

Wow! That was very fun to read! I loved the ending too! I was very excited to see that you used them all as well. Haha, awesome stuff! Nope. There were no rules apart from the words rule. You all have done really well so far ^_^ Thankyou.
It seems as though this has turned into a word cramming marathon, allow me to elongate a submission, this is:
The Great Escape
I am alive
So,
What better place than here?
So,
What better time than now?
Fled did I from the intuits eye,
Gaping at me from the murky mire:
Where dusty demons dredge with desire,
Eager to find a young soul caught with a trip wire
And encompass him in the shadow of a quite fire:
Where clarity will sear in his mind
And true reason is lost in time.
Forever he will live anew
For had he known the life of the wise
Can only stem from jaded lives,
Where hurtful tolls are taken with wine
And to the body of Christ are given thine:
An obscene sacrament of unusual origins,
Placid is the placebo being stretched around our tolerance-
To cover a world in which hypocrisy is breaded-
To envelope the x-rated nature that to be human is ever needed-
And suffice to sacrifice our zany worldly possessions-
And for what? For that is the question...

Did you say 'ALIVE & BETTER'?
You've lost CLARITY in your meekness
Residing in my DUSTY domains
Was an EAGER soul once
That wished to exist FOREVER
GAPING light to embrace eternity
But HURTFUL you, fell beneath your INTUITION
It remains JADED still
The KNOWN falsely appeared
Dissolved in the mystery of LIFE
MURKY mixture of ink & lies
Seemed so NEW,but OBSCENE
PLACID mothers in QUIET blood
Trusting an absolute REASON
In the SHADOW of their wombs
Emotional sight, yet so TRUE
UNUSUAL for the seeking self
VAST difference between us
The WISE cry in disgust
At the X-RATED protean
Ask yourself questions YOUNG fellow
Else endure the ZANY clump to preach your existence...

It’s better to live life with reason
Than forever to wonder along
Following always in shadow
Trying to find what went wrong
Alive people are quiet, subdued
Dead, they shout out in hope
Eager to map the vast unknown
They see the picture in its’ true scope
The young wish they were older
The old wish they were wise
Inside all is a gaping hole
Filled with hurtful lies
What we all see is murky
Clarity is what we crave
Intuition leads us through
Sorting the weak and the brave
The ornaments now are all dusty
All that you are is now strife
Nothing will ever be new anymore
What did you do with your life?
Rubbish, but oh well XD

I am alive, my love, and thoroughly better than you,
time's clarity slowly seeping through my mind's dusty halls,
I was eager to please, thinking love was forever true,
now gaping wounds close even as your hurtful rage apalls.
Intuition warned me of your jaded love's sharpened thorns,
if I'd known where you would take me I'd have ended my life.
Your hidden, murky motives took on new and obscene forms,
your surface, soothing, placid, offered to become my wife.
Quiet shameless reason has brought me free of your designs,
out from under your shadow, an unusual calm my prize.
An ocean of contemplation, vast, wise and full of signs,
zany thoughts just lapping waves, not tsunamis of lies.
Your young, x-rated vision of what love is meant to be,
is but an ant next to the star of what it means to me.
