Premium Member Dyslexic Composition
When stars ascend and illuminate moonlight, he sits in the midst of childhood confusion, bricks in ruby quartz, shape pearl-face of twilight, crafting a castle from artistic vision where secrets of his heart have unlocked windows; letters and numbers, no longer mere shadows, architecting comfort through mini figures that masquerade ticking truth of lonely hours. Dyslexic mind moulds an armored foundation, lego became...

The Dyslexic Knight
THE DYSLEXIC NIGHT Back in the first millennium, Putting the world to rights, There lived a king called Arthur With a band of gallant knights. They did things democratically, Seated round a table. Although the lines are slightly blurred Between true fact and fable. The knights were known for gallantry, Fighting many a foe, And saving maidens from dragons. They were always on the go.

Words in the belfry, words in the hall, words in my sandwiches, words for us all. What if you know no written words? What if you cannot read? What is my world? Words in my head, swirling around, making me laugh. Idiocy, munchkin and calf. How would you play video games if you could not read how to...

Dyslexic of the Celestial Will
Slowly but surly the will of the lord will exist Let the mind run wild or the body frolic with fire The soul will always accomplish the divine command Death; the day of reckoning gives us rebirth pain. Can there be joy within the separation from God? For invisible love is beyond this body mind and soul....
