Mind assaulted by some arcane tornado
hedonistic interdimensional visions
a fondly remembered schizophrenia illusion
abandoned like some conspicuous truant poetry
head spinning like a rampant swivel chair
thick dreams clinging to your damaged psyche
like Cheese Whiz clings to a wheat cracker
mouth swollen as if stuffed with spinifex
you enunciate a gibberish cougar growl
followed by a nonsensical malapropism
slowly the feeling ebbs, normalcy returning
you spend a moment regathering composure
while you start rebuilding some sanity-Poem by Dragon Blogger

Erudite claiming to be from some great wonderland
prolific mystic in a shimmering black bowler hat
emitting a glaring look of frustration and angst
humour devoid in the nearby broken contraption
cursing his own nimble trust of some mechanic
in loud rhapsodist epithets for all to hear
curious crowds gather around the palm tree
as the wandering magician tinkerer rants
making an unusual spectacle-Poem by Dragon Blogger

Bewilderment of a sleep sequel
waning of some diva forgotten nightmare
ascendant fame and popularity attacked
regretful emotions embellish wickedly
secret letters but false plagiarism
the careful calibration of a deceiver
seeking to eviscerate your life
With a savagely rude force of will
you awaken with hardihood battered
tears thick like Vaseline phlegm
tearing open a sachet of tissues
as you seek to cleanse wicked dreams
with a detergent of positive thoughts
no more sleep will come tonight-Poem by Dragon Blogger
