1. WHEN I THOUGHT

 

When i thought about filth and dirt,

unethical images of floating sewage blended with feces capsized my mental imagery.

 

when i thought about transparently luring crystal water,

panoramic visions of undulating mountains besieged me in entirety.

 

when i thought about finely crushed chowder of piquant salt,

rambunctious  memories of the sea flooded  desolate regions of my soul.

 

when i thought about tenaciously blowing coats of wind,

lascivious mass of dense tree foliage revolved subtly through my mind.

 

when i thought about bountiful springs of frosty milk,

sacrosanct images of the twin horned cow submerged me with glee.

 

when i thought about swaying my body in animated jubilation,

extravagant pictures of the country barn discotheque gleamed large in my eyes.

 

when i thought about prolific waves of acerbic heat,

charismatic demeanor of the sun god shot loud and clear all throughout cells of my brain.

 

when i thought about praying to the almighty,

omniscient portraits of Christ nailed to bare wood proliferated in my memory.

 

when i thought about the destitute succumbing to pangs of starvation,

shriveled silhouettes of skinny children instantaneously crept up my scalp.

 

when i thought about exorbitant luxury with king sized dishes of food,

frivolous images of silken gold took strangle hold of my impeccable heart.

 

and when i thought about perennial threads of sacred matrimony,

effeminate outlines of the girl i loved delectably settled in topmost compartments of my mind.
