Analysis of POETE de FOLIE
The maddening mind amid
Its own insane process
Sits within a liquid spool and spins
Weaves inane ideas deeper
Within his loom
Using silky thoughts of threads
Fashioning those desperate worlds
Tales of anguish are spent
Through frantic strokes of pen
Once loose,thus ends
Shall unravel the fragile
But, rational hearts posed of verse and poetic blends
And then, when the tailor has become, completely undone
It is because every tear
And last breath was finally spun
But, once again, to start where he has thunk
So with tempting genius he rethreads the spool
And the inner machine renewed begins to run
