\'in towns of coloured porcelain with horns of thistles myth
am beyond the ruptured skeleton
as it whistles with the wind chimes in the aftermath of groping lemons pith\'..
it\'s always inspiring to read your use of juxta-positioned metaphors
pooled from what is seemingly an endlessly diverse source of wordsmith imagery
intertwined seamlessly, with that innate flow of poetic artistry..
what a talent, you choose to share with us dear poet, thank you!

with all that was never enough
L. B. Mek said:
\'purple blood somewhere where lava flows
where no man lands with hands of peregrine
on towers of flowering tulips where once a torso dangled in spiteful greed
look between the breeze as heaven opens it\'s claws
as slowly we cower and bleed;
one hundred pieces for our jigsaw to bargain with\'..
a profound exclamation of purposed inflammatory poetry: worded so eloquently!
\'keep that mighty pen busy, dear poet
for at the very least
it will distract: those hands of potential devastation
from adding, to all the abundant misery..\'

What Can It Be That Draws Me Back To Here?

\'perhaps we are the cotton reel who now sleeps beneath a shawl;\'

(sorry dear poet, but I don\'t know who david lamb is, though
that did not hinder my appreciation for your enchanting write
exemplary utilisation of tangible imagery)

\'a cavalcade where salt greets blood
floods my eyes with sweat from behind a horses ear.\'
just wow!
no wonder cinema is dead
when words - alone, can immerse us
in such tangibly sensed, imagery...

And The Silent Badgers Tail Will Rise Again
L. B. Mek said:
\'the crawler on the doors as uninvited guest;
the being -supreme- uncertain? yes. but certain all must end!
curtains slain and drawn. as bishop takes pawn. as brawn takes brain.
let us feast upon the flesh of the beast of the great disdain\'..
impassioned writing that further demonstrates - than negates, your wordsmith prowess!

With Aphrodite\'s Kiss
L. B. Mek said:
\'it just seems sometimes in Winter\'s lust still falls a Summer rain.
is it true when comes a minor loss, so to comes greater gain?
perhaps, with Aphrodite\'s kiss, I will appreciate the pain;\'
these lines imitate virtual-reality\'s immersive traits
purely by enticing a readers imagination
through written words, alone

Ballad of Mr. Lockdown
L. B. Mek said:
defiantly: Brilliant!
(forgive me for rudely rearranging your wonderful work
but this is how your poem chose to speak to me)..
\'I am the closest friend of no-one, my enemies are few
my mind it seems more occupied with the lesser that I do\'
\'was it all about the prophet or the profiteering mound?
I am of the understanding it was neither.
was it all about investors or inventors of the math?
I have no understanding of this either;\'
\'I am but a simple man who wears his heart upon his quill\'
\'I am now something to the nothing. I am the nothing of it all.
so if my nothings what you\'re asking, you are welcome to it all.\'

Play Dead Among The Flies

if this is a biographical dedication, then I\'m so sorry for your loss..
but know either way, you\'ve penned
a write worth investing in

No More The Frowning Clown
L. B. Mek said:
\'surely time has come to run away from the frowns of the clown
and enjoy instead the mischievous scrumping of plums;
let this adult play with the children of the smile
let him be the child he only dreamt he would ever be\'..
that remnant thread
of blissful ignorance to \'all things possible\'
remaining in that shrivelled paltry shred
of our childhood\'s treasured memories
excavated, with a poet\'s despairing ink
to salvage
that crippling perception of bleak reality
threatening
to drown-out all, but nihilism\'s penchant for misery..
is what your words conveyed to me dear poet
a great write, with wonderful use of characterised imagery!

All About Eve
L. B. Mek said:
\'I have whistled one too many times
about the burning of the deck. about the felling of the mast;
castrated eyes upon the turning of my neck
I am all about Eve in the distance in Butterfly net
with a sweet tasting Rose and a posse of Earl Grey Bees;
she brings subsidence to my crooked ears\'..
wonderful flow, admittedly I couldn\'t quite grasp everything but I appreciate the artistry of eloquence in your inking prowess

the slyness of a quartered moon

deep, this are just some of the surface layers I manage to uncover:

\'light be the mood of earths upending room
bright be the brood of befuddled mud on Pastorias cheek
as rod and staff dive deep\'

at time o\'clock now sleeps the hawk of seas
on cormorant tongue where spies the teeth of mist\'
