Wow this is a snake bite with plenty of venom. I\'m not sure who is upset with whom but the message is palpable. Wonderful

Good poison! For a moment there I thought you were going into self-pity! Like so many on this.....no wait, I\'ll keep my mouth shut.

Funny how we like our poisons. Be it drugs, cholesterol, sugar, inactivity, toxic relationships they are the things we live for. A write that seems too real to feel good about but its appeal like the drug brings one back. Lovely Cryptic

This is wonderful. I was transported to the poet\'s study. Both the joy and the struggle. Both are here wrestling. Inspirational

arqios
Your poem is rich in metaphor, evoking the interplay between poetry, memory, & transcendence. The language is both elegant & haunting, lending itself to deep reflection.
Absolutely loved the opening line \"a poem is the funeral pyre of pulsations\" - stunning!!!
Your poem is perfectly refined & deeply expressive.
I could go on but, actually, this is best left as it is...I just want to read it again & not evaluate anymore.

The struggle at times to find the inspiration to turn a thought into a poem. To develop it through all the stages and then to deliver it. You describe this so well. I like that word fickle. That sums up my own muse. Nicely composed arqios.

Some great metaphors here arqios, but I would be lying if I told you I felt no pain. I did.
wrenched dreams
Another fine write from your prolific pen. Have a word with my muse will you. She’s slacking.

Clunky means more room to play. This \"work in progress\" is quite good as is, my friend.
\"Lines emerged, each a reminder of the struggle, a / record of the battle waged on paper.\" These words really hit home. I know that battle! ❤️🙏

cowardly survivor
Ma5on said:
arqios,
Your poem paints a gripping & emotionally charged portrait of a fugitive, or perhaps a haunted soul, struggling between fear & survival. The imagery is vivid, the pacing urgent, & the tone reflective.
This is a well-crafted, gripping poem with a powerful message about survival. The flow is sometimes a little awkward but to me that adds a gritty emphasis, overall, it’s a compelling piece.
Very much enjoyed,
regards

Birth is not an easy process, conception, development, birth itself with the pains that accompany it. This poem in some way reminded me of Poe and that was strange given the topic. I above all else love the title it could easily be the title of a book or movie.

“my bloody valentine”
Kevin Hulme said:
The Seven Members of the ‘North Side’ gang had a bad Valentine’s Day In 1929 as well.
This is a fine Poem about the Origins of the Tradition. Well Said.

Living life with the tools we\'ve got. This is a poem of the struggle of living life with less than what is needed to get by. A car that barely rumbles along, is falling apart, and is running on fumes and flat tires. Brilliant metaphor, my friend! 🌹👏
