Delusions Sweetened…

Desires raw and ripe
mixed with
illusions sweet
attractive pieces
of delusions
and misgivings
cut and half cooked
in imagination pots
a lovely serving
on dream platter
pleasing to senses
this meal is sumptuous…

Oh! My mind!
can devouring
this of mine
conjure on my ever
burning hunger
when you awaken me
out of this illusory
feasting?

lovely voyage of the psyche, I think it might be better to be called illusions sweetened, since the semantics of delsions are perhaps misleading 10+

illusions and delusions when sweetened and served in a 'dream platter' most doesn't want to be awaken... for it is more appetizing than to stay in a real world where they have a bitter taste of life...I think this poem needs more follow up verses, the desert has not been served.
