THE CASTLE OF THOUGHT

I'm building a castle of thoughts
That will survive the taste of time
This is intellectual task of the mind
That demands internal decorum

Poet's mind is an ocean of wisdom
Whenever he decides to dive into
He finds his finest artistic jackets
And sweetly swims in poetic pool

Poetically, a poet is a wordsmith
He hides under literary garments
His choice of words is his tool
And cannot be clandestinely taken

His poetic license is his will power
He couple lines with ethereal beauty
And stamp on his hidden meanings
With complexity of his word usage

Often times, he takes a mental flight
And explore the oasis of peace
And seats on the balcony of thought
And reinstates his creative energy

Sometimes a turbulence of emotion
Could strip his subconscious mind
Into wide fire of thousand thoughts
And leads him into poetic madness

So, let no one stumble on his path
He's a genuinely groomed thinker
Who wrought into brim of silence
And communicates with divinity

While in his mind, he comprehends
The surging inspiration poking within
With a crunching footsteps of idea
lighting him with irresistible power

The below is a computer generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

This poem explores the creative process of a poet and their ability to build a castle of thoughts that withstands the test of time. The language and imagery used are evocative and effectively convey the depth of the poet's emotions and the power of their imagination. The use of metaphors and similes adds to the richness of the poem and creates a sense of wonder and awe.

However, there are some areas where the poem could benefit from some editing. One suggested line edit would be to change "The poetic license is his will power" to "His poetic license is his will power" to make the line flow more smoothly and clarify the subject of the sentence.

Additionally, while the overall structure of the poem is strong, there are a few places where the phrasing feels awkward or forced, such as in the line "With a profound figures of speech." Revising these areas would further enhance the poem's impact and clarity.

Overall, "The Castle of Thought" is an engaging and thought-provoking poem that effectively captures the essence of the poetic process. With some minor edits, it could be even stronger and more polished.
