A most interesting collection of disjointed thoughts that often occur in my own mind. Many of these appear to have deeper meaning. A lovely write that give many ideas

I am honored to be the first to reply to this, unless one beats me as I am typing! This is a mind-blowingly 🤯 great poem! The stream-of-consciousness style really made me feel as if I was drifting off into an absinthe-doused dream of these profound thoughts.This is one of my more fave poems ever, let alone a fave on here. Existential as hell! I find a home in this! Great write. I could feel every single word! 🖤❤️🖤

Another dark poem from the prince of darkness. One line after another of the unthinkable and like from a nightmare comes the incubus who calmly sits on a chair beside the bed awaiting the awakening. Great lines and images

Wonderful dear Melvin
it is here I am more hollow than my Eliot suggests.
a smell of beer. a smell as yet I have yet to comprehend.
there is no-one here but all that never ends.
Love these lines, and a great ending as you always do. Kudos 🌹

Duality and the questioning of where one ends and the other begins. A fun read that turns into a mental exercise and leaves ones crainial muscle sore.

I felt like I had seen the union of union of Hieronymus Bosch with Salvador Dali and a pinch of Pablo Picasso. A wild ride over rough roads providing amusement park fun.

A masterpiece love the thought of heaven owning the landscape wouldn\'t it be so much more beautiful than what we see here. If you haven\'t already published a book dearest Melvin it\'s time to think about it, your work is truly worth gold. I absolutely love all the imagery here, and your last lines which bring it all full circle 🌹

I have a picture of sucking a thousand apples from the belly of a cave. Mental pictures that occure on occasion and phrases that occur as well. Most iteresting a verbal Rorschach.

So much so well done. \"a face with a thousand land mines on it\'s chin\" or \"a beating heart in a flame-grilled silhouette.\", just excellent.

Here the message seems clear in the beginning but fades into the fog of the distance. A meta metaphor in that today seems clear but fades into tomorrow\'s fog. Yet today is the tomorrow of yesterday and all are one in time. Lovely Melvin

I know exactly who this one is for, oh so stunning, flawless imagery and oh my, a very special Sunday trip I suspect most Sundays to taken, soulmates forever. I love every line because you bring every last piece to life but these I love today, probably as I\'m a fan of stilton and very rarely find it here unless I go to look for it.
walking to the grave
with his stilton cheese
and a lovebite on his neck.
Even when a love bite is no longer visible sometimes on those very rare occasions it stays forever. 🌹 Happy Sunday my dear Melvin. Truly magnificent poetry my friend. 🌹

In obscure lines I felt clarity, in confusion understanding. This poem struck to the core of the outer limits of emotion. I loved the word play in (fucia\'s never read). The metaphor for age in (now the frost has capped my ears) is wonderful. I think my favorite line is (I am two miles shy of where I can not be) not only have I been there I think I am still there. A most wonderful poem and a Fav

Are you making sorrenbarret work? 🤣 Hey I\'m just going to say what came to mind the pensioners who have been left in the cold by the new government, but that may be the most potty analysis you have ever had, it just speaks to me. Absolutely beautiful in any case. 🌹

And I have been accused of being cryptic. Like a modern art painting I don\'t understand it but I like it as the color of the words blends and the shape of the meter like angles and lines pleases the senses.

I am taken by the uplifting title of this fascinating write Melvin. I feel as though I have a colorful jigsaw in front of me. All the pieces need to be put together again. I like the references to animals and the romantic briar rose. I have to say the last three lines made me feel as though someone was imprisoned. Please forgive my rambling. It was the best I could do. I have a heavy cold :)

The imagery tells me it is a Salvador Dali and mustbe interpreted with care. Most interesting metaphors some of which I have not made the connection to yet. Loved it

Sometimes it seems like \"two miles shy of where I cannot be.\" is as close as we ever get. Still, \"a slot-machine with the eyebrows of a goat\" is just a marvelous line.
