perverting endlessness
possibilities are a trap
while their creation
pure elation
as they descend
like wonderfully ignited powders
falling from the sky
dazzling eyes and mind
voluminous in breadth
they descend
and layer like a blanket
a suffocating maze
of endless spinning wheels
thus the lure
like bait to hunger
the tempting
the almost of all
it sustains a ringing charm
chained to my gooselike neck
straining to taste all the bubbles one could pop
it is why sometimes
the answer must be
confinement
removal of self
an enforced isolation
to dim the light
to nestle with the nakedness of truth
to feel cells multiply within
in a dark quiet
a fertile mind
dangling memories of a force
an authority
that due to will
and false pity
offers me no choice
but to remain
alone
dreaming
without escape
making my own imaginary lumination
dropping from a grey matter sky
so that, it never ends

hi Andres - i thought i replied to this but apparently not...i lost a very long explanation but here it goes again:
Possibilities are experienced as
"...a blanket
a suffocating maze
of endless spinning wheels,,," - yes. an overwhelming sensation.
Also interesting the speaker has a
"gooselike neck" that possibilities
"chain" to. - no, it is 'lure' that is chained to a neck that is gooselike because of all of the possibilities
Makes the reader what is this "nakedness of truth"
the speaker finds in "enforced isolation." - the mirror of self but of course!
In the last stanza, apparently, this isolation leads to a "fertile mind...etc
that
"offers me no choice
but to remain
alone
dreaming
without escape
making my own imaginary lumination
dropping from a grey matter sky
so that, it never ends" - no, it is the fertile mind that is used against itself, enforced by another.
This ultimate end is the
"Perverting Endlessnes"
I'm lead to believe. - yes...utilizing cognitive energy as tool of torment.
This after a first read.....
thought what's getting across to one
reader could be of use to you. If not
useful, just disregard, of course. - thank you for the close read, it is interesting to see what people see in what one writes!
