We derive our material from the same source. I pray for inspiration and The Lord grants it to me. I vow never to be sexually explicit or to use profanity, which not only is wrong, but debases creativity. Long ago, in Grad School, I learned writing that throws a spotlight on the human condition is best.
I enjoy being transported to your worlds.

This is a descriptive prologue to a book of poems. I liked reading it.
Suggestion:
Even though my poetry is exclusively romantic, mostly inspired by Divine Grace, and even though my paintings and photography illustrating my books aren't violent, due to some poems being extremely intense and spiritual, i don't recommend them to be read by under 16 years old teenagers.
I would make this a little shorter, and capitalize I for I don't recommend.
Also, maybe put this in a more positive mode, perhaps like this:
My poetry is exclusively romantic, relying on divine grace for inspiration. Because some poems are extremely intense and spiritual, I recommend these to an audience of sixteen years and older.

Poetry can, as a matter of fact not only be hypnotic in the way it affects the moods, but can also be very influenting sensitive minds and emotional souls.
This is a little awkward. Also 'influenting' isn't a word. Maybe try:
I believe poetry can be hypnotic in the way it affects a person's mood. It can also be influential on sensitive minds and emotional souls.

Is this freeform poetry? I'm lost with this piece's verse structure. You list a few types, and having this intro have sections within each verse structure can help set the stage for an amazing poetry book ahead.

    well as you can READ this is a PROLOGUE for my poetry s book this is NOT. A poem entered in any contests at all

    okay. I think playing with the form of the prologue can help the prologue pop more. I'm interested in more work. but having a prologue pop more will entice the readers to turn the page. I mean pop in the sense that there is a revelation like: that's a cool play of words, while still introducing me to what is ahead.
