Dreams

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Hue drenched

Dripping

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

In color

And vibrance

Unfettered

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Undulating

Labyrinthine

Inner workings

Helter-skelter

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Ambition transformed

Wonder whorled, grasping

Inextricably

Interlaced with sharp

Variegation

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Light voyages in waves

Engulfing blank white page

Inside is infinite

Universes explode

Limitless space and time

Fractally unfurling

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Mysticism snared under key

Expansion permanently

Locked down, unexpectedly

Third eye opened, mind set free

Pulsating heart left exposed

Infinite oscillations

Absorbing all vibrations

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

The past, only words and feelings

Behind me lay reality

Yanked from its spool borne on the wind

Scattered, spattered, run all amok

Every inwardly spiraling

Memory that should be blended

Entangles and ensnares future

Creativity, repeating

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

More hides behind my eyes than resides

Aboard the sparkling moonshine driving

Every awkward, lumbering footfall

Forever progressing, taking hold

Of slumbering peace, the only truth

Worth turning down the crisp new sheets for

Love, the coordinated plucking

Of these convoluted frayed heartstrings

A multi-layered braided chaos

⋆✴︎˚。⋆

Inspiration percolating away

Each bubble sprouting ouroboros legs

Mouth, racing thoughts caught inside of my brain

Constantly birthing every breath I breathe

Each floating step ejects new chromatic

Strands, quantum ribbons of fathomable

Synaptically engendered power

Thrusting me hurtling through ether aflame

My slow-motion journey recapturing

connection to the waking world around

This is a Decible, a poetic form I created and have been refining. I have posted a few here already.

A quick overview of what a Decible is and how to write one:

The Decible poem is composed of ten stanzas in total.

The first stanza begins with one line, increasing one line at a time, ending at ten lines.

Each stanza increases the number of syllables per line, from one syllable in the first line until you compose the tenth stanza with ten lines of ten syllables each

    This feels like so much more than dreaming in color. It feels like a tornado of a dream whipping you round and round through so many ups and downs. Really enjoyable read and cool style of poem.

  • Got my attention right from the title. Nice one!

    Wow, wild, vivid, and electric. Like dreaming in technicolor.
