When the cartilage of necessity
burns with an arthritic lack,
one’s sensual gaze is blurred
towards the allure of resplendent echoes.
Coffers of shrouded sagacity await to be unmasked
in the inward chasm of sermonizing shadow puppets.
It is where one can caress the tantalizing texture
of the coins forged with clarity’s bewitching ecstasy
kept locked inside the brain’s piggybank.
A rapping utterance of intuition
reverberates the door to the heart .
When opened
the consciousness floats
along an inlet of tangential impulse.
The journey is embelished by a foreboding inner moan
from stalking skeletons and screaming cadavers.
Conjuring a volcano erupting with steaming quills,
they eat each macabre mind ghoul
and transform them into illumined castles of voice
surrounded by moats of verse.

I don't think any ole arthritis of the mind will get you William. Another of your fantastic journeys through your pen...powerful writing as always. I love each line!
Thoes first two sentences hung in my mund. Whie I set here in pain. Not sure where you're going with it so I guess my imagination has got it's brakes on tonight. Interesting what II think I understood. May-be staying up to 6 in the morning to rate poetry isn't such a good Idea anymore. DIXIE LEE
