I am spellbound writer's island #15 spellbound

as I penultimate to the next phase
I am voracious
as you give me cryptic signs
we ornate and become statuesque
as we bloom
static with fibers
I am spellbound in my stupor
as swordfish sail from the ocean floor

    "Penultimate" is sending me to the dictionary.

    I love 'spellbound in my stupor.'

    I like "as we bloom/static with fibers". I like your take on the prompt. Lots of good sense imagery.

    Such creative use of words. Very mysterious really and allows for a number of applications and interpretations. I like it more and more as I read it over!

    The last image of the swordfish in ocean floor has the right touch of irreverence.
