Have you considered your line breaks? Have you expressed any sentiments that could be shown in a more succinct manner? You have a series of terse lines followed by more prosaic longer lines was this done intentionally?
Catatonic wacko
weaved in a shroud
from the
finger of Freud,
white linen,
drug drooled.
Gravy-rich passion,
yawning now,
aplomb wit
etherized,
yellow mind
goo.
Dynamo
magic melts
from serum pharm,
while my shrink
sleeps with
scripted contentment.
Intervenors, saviors,
fornicate freedom's
kaleidoscope,
covered by a
Depakote lens.
New periodic table
bends my will,
dulling the dagger
like afternoon rain,
like decaf drip,
like drone dreams.
Still I played roulette
in the yolk
of the Urals,
my own elixirs,
rewiring retired
neurons into
dancing daggers.
I gaze at the graves of Freudian flunkies.
The tail of the dragon dug their furrow.
From a maze in a fray of backpack monkeys,
pressing on with a passion to touch tomorrow.
