Poemranker [Poem: Chaos & his dreamchild (genesis) --Revised Edition--] [by SupremeDreamer] Thu Apr 18 21:36:07 PDT 2024

Chaos breathed in deep the air that was not exhaling life in an illusion of order and substance. His eyes forged vision to unveil the dream exotic; a cosmos without limits sublime in its raw youth. Chaos gazed with imagination, saw the meaning that was not and leaned close to his dreamchild spilling his spirit to become the dream that was not. He left meaning and purpose unformed, so that the dreams' wild children could forge their own visions their own meaning their own purpose to then become whole and one with that which is not.

Liked it, one reason i did was because it has at least 2 parts it can be ended with an impact.

Loved the 1st 3 big time.

He didn't, he gave me an eight for the first version months ago. You'll notice that beneath the voting graph there is a link called "view voting details", click it and you'll see that sanity was the one who gave me a one.

Just wanted to clear that up so no one gets blamed for someone elses vote heh.

You're right, sorry.

I like it because it provokes thinking about the possible "illusion of order and substance."

Try leaving out "then" in the last verse.

Heh, yeah, it's a bit more fluid without "then".. the things a poet will notice in time, tsk, it's amazing the things I've written in the past and the little hiccups I find in them now or not too far off into the future.. I've deducted it from my pc copy. I'm happy you enjoyed the piece, and appreciate you vote and feedback.
