Purgatorial Incarceration

Hey there!
Ok, here's the story: (a little background first)
I'm working on my new novel, and I wanted to make it more "in-depth" into the human mind and spirit. I won't tell you the story ('cause then you wouldn't need to buy it!) but it's a little like most of my poetry, dark and insane! And it is fantasy based, so "techno" words won't be much help!

So what I'm looking for from you wonderful poets, is a few words of power. By this, I mean words that grab your attention, or lend a heavy "feeling" to what they describe. They don't need to be just adjectives either, they can be anything (though I prefer nothing "slang")

And I don't ask this, without being willing to pay a price. If you can give me a few words, then I will make my best attempt to integrate those words into a poem!

So thank you for the help everybody!!

What kind of power? There are words to describe all kinds of power...I need a little more to go by...I need to 'feel' the question I guess......

Well, I didn't want to limit it, but maybe if I give you some examples...

magesterial impassivity
clogged with memories of music
reflexive abasement
visceral glimmerings
prophetic visage


things like that, words (either phrased or independent) that catch your attention and maybe make you think for a moment
