Time and painful facts illustrate repeatedly the work is forever more highly valued than the authors. Man himself is guilty of this in the highest regard, charged with the fault by none other than his maker. However the same proves that the potter is higher than the clay. Gorgeous and beautifully rendered with nigh exquisite imagery, thank you very much for sharing.

Fascinating and intriguing with delicious imagery and a tantalizing poignancy, how shall I look or answer? You leave me standing like a bird on one foot, uncertain whither the mists lead. Thank you for sharing

Hello,
This poem grasped my attention straight away. For me the language used was so much attuned coming from deep inner sources. It had the ability to become this kind of voyaging energy that you captured so well. Really liked the subtle word phrases. It felt completed. An inspiring read! I will surely be reading more of your work. Greetings and blessings,

I have to be honest I have enjoyed reading this but I am still trying to work it, which makes it more fun.

With each reading the poem becomes less cryptic. Sheets in the wind billowing under sun images of a wash out to dry and what sheets are these? A wan smile not feeling well. Illness? Thundering pain, storm, metaphor, bring in the wash. A receding stain. And stained from what? Moonlight end of day. Polishes past damage seen as utter defeat. Like bringing in still wet wash due to a storm little gained in the wash. Rambling thoughts. Hope all is well with you. Loved the poem

It\'s amazing how the most unlikely people wrote Poetry: Abe Lincoln, Leonard Nimoy, George S. Patton and Bernard ( Carry On) Bresslaw. Nice one.

Limited identities? I am a poet, he/she is a poet. Maybe you aren\'t. You just write poetry.
Great write!

Tristan Robert Lange said:
When asked what he would want to be remembered for, Jim Morrison said, \"My words, man. My words.\" That is what every true poet want\'s to be remember. Lives are but the flawed vessels out of which hope, truth, beauty, love, horror, the grotesque, the macabre and raw honesty flow. The artist is important, but the art is the focal point and the art observer is the one who breathes life into it through personal interpretation. Beautifully rendered and a well-articulated viewpoint, one I share. A fave from me. 🌹👏

Loved the write I have always looked at the poem, art, music whatever first, and value it with a clear head, then I might find out more about the creator. Enjoyed the read

Here here a topic I have thought about for some time. Do we not do the same with painters and composers? Why is the life of the artist more important than his work? We live in a world where internet gossip takes us into the bedrooms of celebrities and even neighbors. We live in a socially distanced and compartmentalized sterile world devoid of personal contacts and we reach out for touch. It is not the art we wish to touch but the person. I say touch the person through his art not his art through the person. A great poem and a fave

[Thank you for the hint] Laden thus with capable metaphors and the haunting conclusion whose preceding tale invites, why do I feel like hugging myself, eh? Delectably rendered with superb imagery, the inherent poignancy haunts me even yet. Thank you for sharing.

Oh this is metaphor rich for sure. \"parchment scribbles and niceties / do not constitute a true marriage\". Truth. I have firsthand experience of that, my friend. This line also reminded me of the classic Bon Jovi song, \"Living in Sin\" off of their New Jersey album. \"You can talk but still say nothing / stay together, but alone.\" Truth. Your poem is a brilliant one my friend, Truly loved it. Happy Sunday to you! 🌹👏

A balloon ready to burst it joins so many disjointed pieces, a Frankenstein meant in the most complimentary way stitched together it breaths and arises alive not on puppet strings and not of wood but living flesh. In our lack of understanding we reject and send to the ice lands a creation held monstrous. What a creation this poem is my friend a fave
