wonderfully portrays
that playful essence of their charismatic nature
especially in that symbolical arrangement
of your poetry\'s purposely jagged, rhythm..

Kaleidoscope

Deeply moving this view on life and its changing patterns my friend - -- agreed that we either cope with change or maybe never find our true self in the daily kaleidoscope.

With genuine hands held out the sufferer has a rope to pull on and must feel more security as your tender lines state - -a fine read of compassion and all it means.

Broken souls need time and find their own readyness. Perseverence often pays off.

Boxing Day
L. B. Mek said:
jarring to read this in the crippling heat of June
but also, somehow adds more weight to your
nostalgic words,
why do we assume, there will always be a better boxing day
in our future? what about, this chaotic existence we call life
means we\'re even guaranteed another one?
and that, dear poet is why write\'s like yours
are always timeless and necessary!
we must, celebrate our wonderful memories
so that those who read: can be reminded
its not all doom and gloom;
however sweltering the heat
or dreary grey, those gathering clouds,
good days: exist
just a few puffs of a wind, away...
thanks for sharing dear poet

The Power
L. B. Mek said:
fences serve a purpose, see
without middle grounds
it would all be that eye for an eye
of all-consuming, futile hate
that\'s why middle grounds, exist
to balance out
the zealotry in humanity\'s
fallible extremes..

Great write about the confusion of who you are. Well right now you is, what you is. And what you is, is learning to be what you\'re going to be which normally is a more \'together\' version of you than today. phew!.... Well that\'s gotta be worth looking forward to for all the potential lovers around you!

I always found the \'Glass Castle\' a microcosm foreshadowing: glimpse
of what our civilised society would degrade, towards
if everyone just chose to prioritise themselves, above all else
and shirk any responsibility by disregarding accountability...
its ok to write endless words
where we are the sole victims in the universe
and nobody cares about us and blah blah blah
so long as we go and grab a bite: of our favourite treat, after...
yeah, its all ok
nihilism will take care of it all, anyway...

Take Pride in Liking
jarcher54 said:
Humorous subject, and I appreciate your candor! It\'s also very erotic in a very subtle way. The pantoum is successful in an interesting way... the current feelings and memory of that event interplay with one another in a dreamy, stream of consciousness way that is very fitting. Repeating the longings and experiences like not being able to sleep is like being reminded what it\'s like to toss and turn night after night!

the message alone is powerful!
maybe worth reposting next month (would be a timely read, I think?)
a write with a lot of potential, but even as it is, a wonderfully emotive read
happy for you! dear poet
utilise that same wall-obliterating awesomeness, in your future poetry
and watch it transcend into realms of powerfully voiced: artistry,
