sent over neural pathways
the sight of a scent
could make one wax
transcendent:
Yankee Candle
budding one's tongue
the sound of a taste
may disturb the ears
aural astral waste;
Monosodium Glutamate
to feel the touch
of a sight beheld
might dazzle the senses
beyond defenses:
Tear Gas
Sin is apt
to skew such lapses.
Sin’s esthetic
glimpsed in apses
acts as anesthetic;
dulls our enhanced ecstatic senses:
a synthetic synaptic celestial deception . . .
Make sense?

Make sense?
prompt: write a poem that includes images that engage all five senses. Try to be as concrete and exact as possible with the “feel” of what the poem invites the reader to see, smell, touch, taste and hear.
