The lament of The Russian Inmate after Arkadi Severni
sorenbarrett said:
This poem carries the feel of Russian writing, I\'ve read Tolstoy, Turgenev, Dostoevsky and it carries the feel of desperation, acceptance and depression. Lovely

The Saga of the Russian Civil War Part 1 after Edward Bagritski
sorenbarrett said:
Quite the story as a metaphor and with such a touch that it seemed Russian or Ukrainian to a man that has seen neither but only read Russian authors. Lovely write

Russian Ballad after Alexander Vazenmiller
sorenbarrett said:
There are stacks of wood in the wood shed here and someone has lost a hair that must be found. I search desperately but only found a red herring. A most intriguing poem that presented so many metaphors that my head is still spinning. I think I\'m in a house of mirrors here. No matter where I look I see a face looking back at me. Loved it

This poem could well be a song and it seems roots that are Scottish or Celtic from a long gone era. It calls to me from the past. Beautiful

Dear Loss by Alexander Vertinsky
sorenbarrett said:
So well written in metaphor this process of loss and moving on that clings with fingers to the past. It is a bit haunting and very real. Very nicely worded in soliloquy form.
