Mesonic Hypnobatia
What's the distinction of a ghost
But the shimmering of a dream,
Awash in some Morphean stream
Where roving specters shimmer most.
So many years may pass unclear
As sleep and dreams are set aside;
By consciousness they are denied
Or likewise dissuaded to appear.
But as a mirage in desert heat
They will ever in the distance be
To test the souls of you and me
Before their passage is complete.
Oh, there's a haunting in our sure decay
Through the complexities of time and space,
Which cold entropy will just erase...
like clouds being blown away...
We sleepwalk into hell to pay!

I may have not had enough coffee yet, but that last line feels like getting ready for work today
I don't say much but I sure like reading your work

Thank you for that, and rest assured that I am not so vain as to expect that every one bow down and worship each and every one of my kooky write ups.
You can, however, rest surely that I like your work as well, and it's always a treat to hear from you!
Work and coffee!
The challenge in each is to avoid the dregs.

Sometimes sleepwalking through a teenie bit of life is needed to just get from point A to point B.... I deeply enjoyed your creative force here, MS. It's always a pleasure to see you and to discover where your poetic prowess will take me...
Much love,

Much love to you too my dear Blue!
I am flattered in the extreme with you associating the word prowess with my name! My vanity tank is now totally topped off!
Seriously though, it's funny how I will get my poet mojo going with only a rough idea as to the conceptual direction of the piece, whiles simultaneously trying to appease the gods of rhyme. Sometimes they steer things a different way and I must learn to be happy with the results if they make any sense to me at all.
Absolutely lovely to hear from you!

Great job with the way you display your word... A dress rehearsal of perfection!!!

Thanks!
I am indeed enough of a narcissist to highly value both dress rehearsals and comparisons to perfection. I mean, why not set standards as high as possible, eh?
We may surprise ourselves with how close to the sun we get before the wax melts away from our faulty Daedalian wings!
Like the birds, we must nonetheless strive for ascension!
I'm very glad to hear from you!

Greetings and felicitations!
Firstly, I was wondering what you might think of "The Crimsin Poetrix" as a professional superheroine style moniker? I think it's sexy, and I would be lying to you if I said that I didn't occasionally fantasize about you wearing a cape. Sometimes only a cape, but you've always got the option of covering up whenever you feel the need.
Secondly, I totally believe you about your different levels of consciousness, because I don't know how else anybody could bang out a half dozen poems a day,
I can't keep up! My poetic mojo is totally flaccid compared to yours!
Seriously though, your output is amazing. What is your secret recipe?
As for hell...I just can't picture you there, but then I don't watch a lot of horror movies since the headlines are usually enough to sink my optimism. It too, is often rather flaccid.
You heard me. I said flaccid. A real man isn't afraid of using that word, even though he really never wants to hear it.
Truth is, being open minded is difficult for us skeptical types, who so often take our marching orders from the rather dull world of logic and reason, which seem to leave so many folks bewildered.
I will always love a dreamer though, no matter what!

hello dearest poet first I love Crimsin Poetrix as a moniker I rather love the idea of a sexy cape too...I write out of necessity really my mind rarely quiets... I dream while I sleep so no rest there either...it goes constantly its rather tiring at times...the powers that be often tell me to think logical but my mind operates on different perimeters defying logic...free flowing in the energies reaching for what is out there...you say flaccid I'd like to think of you reserved for that special something that doesn't come round that often...I can be cold if not properly aroused so I understand...I prefer to remain chaste of thought because my pride seems to be affected when I succumb...have a beautiful day today...let your spirit free....touch the energies and be satisfied as for hell I might be dragged there to be a sexual flavor of sorts ;)

Oh my!
Well I guess you'd be blessed, so to speak, with the ultimate sex tape to send to viral online heaven. I can't imagine hell would object to that!
Yes, I will have a beautiful day!
I hope you do too!

I have been accused of being a dreamer .. but, I find sanctuary there .. and whether or not hell is involved I believe is entirely up to me .. lol
Excellent spill .. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

I suspect dreams are the primary muse inspiration conduit for some of us, as there seems to be no more efficient conceptual blender than our own subconscious, and I'm not surprised you find sanctuary there, because I know I do too.
I also think that we, as a society, grossly undervalue the dreamers. Real progress is usually the result of savvy matchmaking between the conceptually talented community and those of us with more materialistic skill sets.
Be a proud dreamer!
I am delighted that you liked it!

I completely agree! The Dreamers are in my humble opinion, the real deal .. and we have a tendency to scare people who aren't.
Proud Dreamer for sure!!
