So that didn’t work out at all. Perhaps it was too niche. Oh well 🫥🎻🕊️🙏🏻

The myth of Pygmalion so carefully conceived in this poem. King sculpture creating a statue not of marble but of ivory that he fell in love with and Aphrodite turned to life marrying the two. But I see deeper meaning brought out by the latter part of the poem. A person worshiped and adored before marriage becomes common after.
\"Today she is simply
the person beside me,
doing the next thing
side by side.\"
How easily the holy, sacred and worshiped becomes the common. A fave my friend

I felt this, arqios. A lot of worthwhile work happens outside the rooms where people hand out legitimacy, and sometimes that outside work is where the real life is. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A museum of poetry. Sounds like a good idea. Enjoyed your poem. Perhaps, those outside will one day be recognized. - Phil A.

It is the message here that grabs the mind and heart. So many artists that have not followed the beaten path the paved highway neglected during life have found immortality after death in creative work not accepted at their time. Encouraging and nicely presented Cryptic.

Good write A. \'Hate\' in some older Bible versions can mean \'love less\' rather than \'hate\' itself.

My friend, there’s something almost prayerful in this without it needing to announce itself as one. I liked that a lot. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

How poetically put my friend. How does anyone know the thoughts of another without comment made by them. So empty poems read without response. As a species we rely on communication and one way leaves us hanging with no feedback we know not how to respond. I write for myself and as therapy but it is rewarding knowing that I am not alone and that others share the same feelings and thoughts. A lovely write my friend and one well needed in that so small a percentage of those that read respond. Look at the numbers of reads you have and compare them to the number of comments. I have read every poem posted for the last two years on this site and it is almost exclusively the same people that respond. I may soon restrict myself to responding only to those that respond to mine.
