Rogue Imagination

Before the first word inscribed

The pen leaked, ink spilled and smeared the leaf

moments later the page was ravaged by a capricious trance

Before my puzzled eyes feral dreams

Unspoken words, ethereal shadows transpired

Enemies clashed in silent chaos in presence of calm

When random dark stains morphed characters were born

A mélange of fantasy, rhythmic pleasure of awe

An eerie verse came to life

Riddled with daring questions, fake quotations,

Wide spaces between the words, a myriad of exclamations marks!

None ever made sense to me

Neither the haunting images nor confounding thoughts.
