Take Two Poles Josie
Bella Shepard said:

You\'re mum sounds like a very special lady, who appreciated the sweetest sounds in life. You have captured this beautifully in a tender poem of love. She taught you well my friend.

Not quite sure of this one, Nev (not an uncommon experience here..).
Josie, it seems was cajoled into hard dangerous work with sweet flattering talk... and then Mum gets the blame...
Alas, I\'ll never understand poets....

Such thoughts raid and plunder through the heights of passion. Plenty of passion in your words here.

A co-shared genuine laugh. That is always a good foundation to any relationship. Thanks Nev!

Why Not Just Throw Away The Key
MendedFences27 said:

There is no sensibility here, only burning desire. She was only pretty as in \"pretty satisfying.\"
But your poem raises the quandary quite well. Is she perceived as a person or a means to satisfaction.? So, in that sense, it makes sense, Thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it wasn\'t the most beautiful. - Phil A.

Didn\'t have a clue but I do now, I will have to look into Nick Drakes music, this is the first time I have heard of him.

MendedFences27 said:

Not got a clue, that\'s me. Nick Drake, sad story, sad life, sad way to end it all. Genius at music, though. Maybe someday we\'ll understand the brain completely and be able to treat such depressions. Trying to interpret what you wrote, I guessed that as weathermen can\'t predict or control the weather, so too doctors can\'t always treat mental illness. Well, enjoyed the poem and listened to some of his music. So now I\'m more enlightened than before I read this. Thank you. _ Phil A.

Doggerel Dave said:

Not wrong there Neville. Took the obvious course (that\'s me...). Owing to lousy speakers or poor hearing or possibly both was unable to sus Nick Drake out via the three songs available on u tube. His story on w\'pedia makes for grim reading.... although I recall encounters with several folks with similar behaviors way back when... I have a terrible feeling I didn\'t show them enough compassion.....

I find my literal mind unable to be sure of the directional movement here, Nev - closer or further away? Am I to make the choice?

For me almost koan like.

Anticipating Angels
MendedFences27 said:

\"Here\" vs \"There.\" \"Anticipating\" vs. \"Entertaining.\" I thought this might be a sad poem or a joyous one, but, \"Milligrams\" draws everything closer. This is about separation (maybe?) as in waiting for one\'s return. Someone bringing the joy to you. Well, I now see the expectation vs, the carrier of angels (joy). Maybe a homecoming. - Phil A.
