Don't waste on drugs,
Let's cull Dream-humors:
(from nonsense we tend to have too much) Dreamichor to repair;
(a bad day may goad) Dreambile to cut the harm;
(erotic dream produces a lot) Dreamseed to spur the growth;
forget vampire, expect Reaper rule;
when burning in a death chamber, Moontear will cool;
at 4x4x4x4th flood giving my tithe of Dreamblood,
I welcome Gatherer to deliver me from the cruel.Don't waste on drugs,

I dare not enter Sphere to show my shadowed fear.
Government selected elite,
turned out to be a motley crew;
decode unknown when walking death through;
a subconscious nightmare to an exhilarating feat!
On The Surface I was just curious to follow a psychologist going to a crash site in the middle of Pacific -
tension building made me ignore the fluff (in-fight of "stock characters", all female navy crews with a male captain);
Into The Deep, the habitat didn't give me the claustrophobia, Black Holes and time-travel lingered but didn't confine me;
Facing The Monster... it's not a giant squid I thought;
Sphere confers The Power...
Each step of my way through the book exceeded my expectation.I dare not enter Sphere to show my shadowed fear.

pined after Empire of the Mind.
dated read now still fair-weighted,

No suspense in a grand scheme,
I indulge Zimroel with the team;
Forced me not by their dream,
I climbed "Himalaya" with less esteem,
Metamorphs to redeem?

Quantum entanglement is borrowed as a lazy approach to clichéd Time travels.
An OK thriller pointed me to watch (finally) a much better thriller - The Guns of Navarone!

of an industry I wish to know;
though author has a lot wits to show,
faux lives seem to flow,
grow no one to glow.

Risque humor tenderized violence.
Reference to bygone rock-n-roll and DD game enhanced the riotous.
Regardless Monster & Man, be amused as I can.

An allegory told by gay men - random encountered, less fettered, more spontaneous - who epitomize the glory of art as élan vital, transient and persistent.
I puzzle over Seamus's poetry and living, but he's gone, excluded from the last dancers' retreat.An allegory told by gay men - random encountered, less fettered, more spontaneous - who epitomize the glory of art as élan vital, transient and persistent.

Reminds me of movie "Emily the Criminal".
Succinct, vivid, held my attention out of seemingly fluff. A satire.
"Have" perceived by "Have Not":
What're good
things can be bought,
only money could;
Alex is fraught,
does what she should;
trick/ridicule the rich lot,
a girl lures manhood;
life is gritty, bear no self pity;
when love and wealth are sought,
the invaluable comes to naught.Reminds me of movie "Emily the Criminal".

When apocalypse enfold
social realism;
Land of Milk and Honey,
is the only "country" that is sunny;
Where meals are still sold
to what evil is
paying and gaining money;
mere gourmand can't feed a hedonic hunger,
a future looking back at the younger:

Writings' rich & glitter gold,
but matters thin to behold.When apocalypse enfold
