Azanian Death Of Poetry

I am sure you did for novelty’s sake, insight, and talent! These are the new puppets (I mean poets) of the “kings’” courts… I also can see the historical context of those nations that build up idols only to bring them down!

A real tear-jerker. Very well written. Often, people choose a way out that they believe conveys their message, yet will never know that it leaves loved ones in despair as well.

I don’t know why this takes me to that moment for Whitney Houston! Huge voice but not necessarily heard in the noise of it all-Thank you for giving voice for all those who have felt voiceless at times…

When Love Dies
Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose) said:

Great poem o like how you have expressed yourself in this

It’s sad yet I especially like these lines


each shaping the other
like pieces of clay


where you and I once flew
a bright kite we called love


May the good coming rains
wash all hurt\'s tears away

Love the mention of that bright kite

When Love Dies
Parisab said:

It had mattered not, if this poem was penned out of Love or Hurt. It is written with care in every descriptive stanza. Very exquisite…
