Adorned in masks, poets gather in thrall
Veiled figures read at the masquerade ball
Alliterations flutter like wings in flight
Narratives weave through the shadows of night
Timeless sonnets rise, grand words on display
Ghosts of old writers, their echoes, they stay
Ambrosial notes fill the air with delight
Riddles revealed by our eyes in the light
Dreams weave like ivy, their pathways, a pardon
Ease into seats, let the senses unharden
Now is the time, the place? Avant Garden!
