Dylan McCarthy Poems

The Best Poem Of Dylan McCarthy

Prelude

A clairvoyant spell screeching
in retained animation
lost amid spates of prism echoes
whimpering softly
adrift in monochrome fogs
dancing upon the balcony
with arrangements and ruses
of necromancer's tarot;
twas luminous bolts
of psychedelic reverie.

Leaden preludes of haunting prospects
drifting skywards
upon blustery rivers
of gilded nimbus stretched
in novel gleams
from stars unrecognized
to fragile earthbound eyes
in peculiar minds
now the plagues
of eerie fascinations lingering
across cool watercolor
arid in the glass.

Forsaken menace
of urban architectural themes;
corridors filled
with distorted scenes and figurines,
the gallery of Caligari's cabinet
now the veil
wrapped upon 'city life' firmaments
and bricklayed tenements.

Chasms of solitary quiet
are flooded at the margin
with shrieking phantoms
from wartime overtures
of bodies mangled and severed
by smoldering storms
raining amidst summer pastures,
trampling upon peace.
Astral portraits
of slithering acrylics framed
upon nebulous rivers
groping for opal skies
within cyan midnight
scribbled in lucid dreams.
