Artistic Ennui Poem by Deborah Dalton

Chasms of suspended
awarenesses

Unconscious joy versus an ever-present pain

Juxtaposed nuances
swirling in
a high pitched
pandemonium
craving an
essential calm
after a vigorous
mental
game

Spiritual abrasement
sloughing temporal
callouses
yielding tender
a naive
surface
wielding
a sensitive
recoil
upon
The Master's
Parental
Caress

Paralytic circumstances
with
zero
therapeutic control

Symbiotic intelligence
bouncing in
chambers
formed through
neuro passageways
to the
soul

Questioning everything

Stealthily bracing
the reception of
an answer
too hot
to hold

Blood oozing in
dizzying capacities
streaming to feed
and
simultaneously
dispose

Drunken silences
popping with
tonal brilliance
coaxing towards
sleeplessness

Sweaty agitation

Considerations undone

Unravelling
momentarily
threatening an infinite unfold

Shaken by each
breath, replenished
each eye-opening
embrace of
the morning sun

Being blessed
is a responsibility

Granted favor
has a reciprocal cost

Undeserved grace
is never without a
residual
redemptive
consequence

Mercy breaks the
mirror
eradicating the reflection,
condemning,
an ego-laced
judgment
forever lost

Living in a conflicting
vortex
Initiated with a simple
choice

Overlooking the alluring
symphonic
earthen melody to
wait for
God's
still
quiet
voice.
