I am from

I am from the land of  knowledge,

A desired automatism,

For assimilation of unbequeathed erudition,

 

If you wish to know,

Let its eddies entomb you,

 

I am from the land of orange satin,

Where the sun dances upon the wings of rainbows,

And glistens through a mid summers day

 

If you wish to stand out

Make your self fain and laudatory,  

 

I am from the land of incalescent eddies,

Surrounding a long forgotten dream,

A dream unseen, like a masterful tailor's seam,

 

If you wish to be inexpugnable,

Prepare to lose more than you gain,

 

I am from the land of gevalts perpetuated by gewgaw,

Its presence is etiolation

I aservate its repugnance

 

If you wish to stand out,

Be your ingenerat self

 

As the day becomes pervious to the night

Winged fowl screech and dart through the viscid nimbus enshrouding the day

 

Invidious trees reach snarled hands outstretched in sagaciousness

Invectives intumesce in an inanimate barrage

 

But all is as all was

Ars poetica eterne

  6. Eddie,
    You truly have a gift for diction and pronunciation. I think anyone else's attempt at this would have been met with stumbling through the pronunciation yet you didn't hesitate on anything. Well done.

  7. I liked all the big words even though I didn't really understand them. I also liked the tone.

  8. This was very good, but I couldn't understand most of the words. Maybe use context clues to help explain what they mean. Otherwise this seems well written.

  9. Not a single word, your diction was nice like how you used words like viscid that no one knows the meanings of.
