Neoteric Dissonance 




Floral painted lady bugs
Feign neoteric doors
As narcissistic avenues
Contriving metaphors

Jaded notes of dissonance
Abstracting clever tones
Break a silent bitterness
Not laughing funny bones

Jumping from a tired breeze
Derides kvetching rain
Nothing too redundant though
Apart from stabbing pain

And masquerading arrogance
As autocratic pride
Suppresses creativity
Awakening inside

But innovating ecstasy
Before Poetic grace
Disregards my honesty 
As truth you wouldn't face

This was nice. I really like the opening line 'Floral painted lady bugs' I don't know why but that sent a flurry of images in my head.

Good poem. However, the color of the words and the cursive hurt my eyes and took me away from the poem. Yet, that did cause me to read your words more than a few times.

Wow

It's like a spell, in both the way it is written and it's effect on the reader.

I didn't like it until the last stanza though. I had to read it a few times before I really liked it.

Brilliant. This is a charming piece of writing that I have read in recent times. One must always strive to strike a chord in a reader’s heart. You have achieved it in great measure. Good job. Keep it up. ;-)
