I am Flame, rising majestic. Antediluvian.
Formed before the deluge of flooded words
engulfed the megafauna of the social landscape
Fiery. Ethereal. Born of fire -
Created from vibrant cosmic written nebulas.
I am dynamic, a shadow of chiaroscuro lighting.
I swirl, psychedelic - Awaking...
In a deep, star-filled expanse of creativity.
I contrast between light and dark
Voluminous and three-dimensional in psyche.
I am Mood, depth, form, light and shadow.
I rise dramatic, burning and mysterious
Atmospheric noir...the darkest part of the light...
I am the transition between the highlight and the shadow.
Reflected light that bounces from blackened darkness.
Emerging from the dark places
providing shade
becoming subtle illumination to the umbriferous spaces.
A Fiery flame dying, exuding one last hurrah,
Fading
Exhaling my last breath!

The Devil's Triangle
The sails ruffled in the breeze as we cruised along. The Sea Breeze was a mid-size catamaran that sailed out of Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda. We had booked this trip weeks in advance and were now looking at our Captain, Spike and two boat hands. Paddy and Wilson seemed like nice guys, joking around with the passengers and telling us some stories about Bermuda that only locals would know. Their island accents sounded almost British but they were pleasant to listen to.

So freaking powerful! Loved it!
This is intense in a great way! Love the imagery 🔥
What a way to describe an artist of any persuasion. This would be a great poem to introduce some terms to a beginning art lesson. Good job.
Excellent Performance poetry. Very powerful!
