Nefarious Neurosis

Poetry Challenge





            There he stood, apart from the crowd

            perpetrating his *machinations unseen.

            His *neurosis barely evident,

            except to a *felicitious few.



            How *paradoxical that his *considerate actions

            were actually mere *tantalizations,

            rather than the *etheral charms outwardly professed.

            Although inwardly he felt quite *unctuous.



            And as the attendant once again

            checked the straps on the straight jacket,

            his *phantasmagorical wanderings retreated

            and his *petulant other self emerges from his mental depths.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My friend Tim, that ratfink!  I said I would write him a poem from 10 words he selected.  OH....what a horrible set of words he chose!  But it didn't stop me.  His words have an asterisk.
