dusk arising said:

LOL I suppose that means i love the highway more than does the kittyhawk?
Or shall i read..... who loves sex more than the sexy?
Love and lovers....Scrubbing and scrubbers?

Lovely Nev. - Romantic lines again from your tender pen methinks - -- stating that even sky\'s expanse cannot be more broad or deep than love which the heart feels for a much cherished lady. - - twas using the Olde English of \"thee\" did it for me - - - sighingly - - - Fay.........x

A Taste of Hunger
L. B. Mek said:

\'I live in a crooked world
of the most acute offset lines
and flawed masonry ..
So why should I pretend to
subscribe
to such technical lineography\'..
this is so, so deep my friend
it could anchor
an entire books worth of literary thread...
sheer articulated brevity of insightful brilliance!
in my humble opinion
(and sorry for my abrupt comment in your last poem
your words took me to my favourite metaphor of love
\'that red string of fate\';
a concept originally of Chinese origin, I think
but I love the Japanese wording, where I fatefully
came across it first)

Neville,

A very interesting and intriguing read.

We may feed our hungerā€¦
but never enough to sate it.

Nothing is straight and linear when you are hurt and hungry for resolution.
Hurt and hungry stem from an unjust finale.

A Taste of Hunger
Fay Slimm. said:

Dear Nev - Is this your old house defending itself I wonder - or maybe tis a metaphor expertly constructed Everyone\'s flawed and to be reminded that crooked is unacceptable can hurt thus
creating one of the worst hungers - - a powerful piece of potent answer and do hope it worked........x

Maybe ā€˜cause Henry got all the courtesans and many wives, screwing up everybody elseā€™s lives, thatā€™s why you live in a crooked house and are always hungry - I know I would be

Loved the read

\'Even with his head
turned slightly
to one side and held low
He shone
and brightly so ..
Erect, proud and golden
Taller
than his counterparts\'..
\'Straining
although, bereft of belief
to glimpse, however brief
that promised: Rose
of scarlet threaded fate\'..

Fay Slimm. said:

Your fine words raise a metaphor in my fanciful mind Nev. To belong to that sunflower class eyes need to shine with confident beauty and heads grow taller with maybe looking where best to show care for those growing in violent surroundings - thanking you kindly cos even tiny short me feels a bit taller after thinking on your lines rich in simile...........x

Pandemia

This anthem to night\'s cavalcade of stars humble the senses if like me these few words evoke memories of dark sky lit with myriads of winking wonder - -- beautiful .......... x

Pandemia
L. B. Mek said:

a small glimpse of your True poetic depth
we get to glean in this Poem, my friend
as you subtly and brilliantly juxtaposition
that insistently prevalent - archaic mindset, where:
in the bleakness of night
when despair blows-out, hope\'s light
gripped by our incessant need, of all-things pandemic
that we gravitate towards, for being dramatically chaotic
we finally realise, that hidden potential for greatness
in all that we utilise to survive and stubbornly: Thrive...!
and there-in, exists that unwavering mythology
of innate belief, in our capacity to mimic
what godliness of flesh: we can yet, realise!
(Such depth of versatility
you showcase consistently, dear poet
Two great poems from you today
each, so drastically different
in style and tone, what a poetic treat)
Brilliant!
in my humble opinion
