pensiration is the ink of the mind
that glorious sub-strata of the soul
emoting, sharing, and ultimately caring
the whys of the how’s and the how’s of the whys

pulsating, palpitating, pounding
to the rhythm of idea-laden dreamscapes
racing across the mind’s titillating tundra
like speedsters scuttling over salt flats pristine

perspiration and inspiration forged into one
commiserating commensurately, yet individually

I love it!  Initially I thought your delightful word came from pen and inspiration and decided for myself that perspiration would fit too - then I discovered that that was what you meant anyway.  Perhaps you didn't mean the pen bit, but that fits too - perspiration and inspiration bonded with the pen.

actually, ms Owl, you are one hundred per cent correct...I realized that the closing lines might blur the image a little, but I am glad you stuck with it and understood it as was intended...thank you so very much

You've painted quite a landscape here. The diversity is what makes it for me.

As always, I come away smiling after reading you.

You have a superb writing vocabulary Steaven.

Love the idea of this title and how you expand the feeling.

Good work as usual my friend.

Forget the Psychiatrists they just find out all about you and sell you back to yourself!

ms M, right back at ‘ya  

Faith, it is hard to be humble when I read your comments (could you right me a few more?)   …thank you

Blues, thank you for the depth of your comment…made me go back and read it myself…wasn’t sure how diverse I had been…glad to help you smile  

Eric, thank you for the generous remarks…in all honesty, vocabulary ratings…well, I must give my mother credit for that…she convinced me long ago that you could tell smart people by the words they use…and being smart was my mother’s mantra for her children…still trying to be so, for her...
