A poem for Elvira
Ellen Marsell said:
There is a beautiful, weathered grace in these lines — a kind of music of memory. I like its unapologetic sentimentality and emotional landscapes. It wanders like an old man gathering flowers in a field of clouds, and that is its charm.

The artist dimension
Ellen Marsell said:
The imaginative and inspired flow of metaphors turns this poem into a true ode to the artist — a creator who senses the world beyond the limits of time. Vivid images give the impression that we are reading dreams. Beautifully written!

Grand Jacques
Ellen Marsell said:
A beautiful poetic message. A delicate and piercing tribute to Jacques Brel, woven into the shifting images of a seascape and an inner storm.

This poem is like a gentle chord completing the complex symphony of life. I really like its soft rhythm and delicate imagery.

The last hour angel
Cheeky Missy said:
Fascinating. I could swear tis an eloquent piece on Florence Nightingale, no? Yet there\'s a subtle darker note flirting about the song as if a demoness has coyly framed herself as an angel. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

The image is clear and familiar especially in Catholic countries and hospitals. A symbol of peace mother\'s unconditional love, of healing. Very nice

This poem covers a lot of ground and speaks to relationships and timing. Age is an issue but not always there are more important things. Loved this poem it is mind provoking

Apocalypto bar
sorenbarrett said:
A poem with a dark horizon that has at the same time a firmness and resolve just as any tough bar that we would walk into. Loved it

Apocalypto bar
Ellen Marsell said:
This poem has its own rebellious rhythm and breath, along with a slightly chaotic and expressionistic style. Post-punk runs through every line. And the \'Apocalypto bar\' is not so much a place as it is a state of being. It feels like a \'Babylon in decline\'.

Farewell letter
Sealgair said:
An act of artistic deromanticization — a mocking and tragicomic farewell to illusions. It was a compelling read!

Farewell letter
Ellen Marsell said:
It seems that this unusual piece conceals a particular philosophy: love as a temporary illusion with an expired shelf life.
The poem absorbs elements of poetic confession, domestic grotesque, and existential satire, balancing between revelation and mockery. An expressive and original piece!

Farewell letter

This letter leaves questions as to whom it is addressed to. Is it the reader or to the author themselves. A most thought provoking write.

Fear
Ellen Marsell said:
This piece stands out for the supple flow of its language and the richness of its metaphor. Each line suggests meaning without imposing conclusion, inviting the reader into a space of quiet introspection. It is, ultimately, a serene philosophy of acceptance.

Fear
sorenbarrett said:
A rather Gothic feel to this poem where fear takes the shape of death. Great imagery and wording throughout. It reads dark. Nicely done

It was Berlin
Ellen Marsell said:
A remarkable text — dark and ironic, with undeniable political, historical-philosophical, and existential depth. Through the image of Berlin, a vast spiritual and cultural catastrophe is powerfully conveyed. The poem leaves a strong impression.

Nothing remains of the past nor will it ever. A mystical and metaphorical write of life\'s travails and what comes. Loved it

An asian lady
Ellen Marsell said:
A smooth fusion of geography and soul lends your poem the feeling of delicate, almost mystical painting. A beautiful work! Here, you are a pilgrim through foreign worlds, a catcher of scents and shadows — one who seeks not to possess, but to understand.

sorenbarrett said:
Although ignorant of the Chinese language this poem holds many plays on Chinese words or at least close approximations in English and the word play is delightful while it weaves a great and most artistic picture of a stereotypical oriental image. Most lovely

The sorrowful exoticism of loneliness, wrapped in irony and myth.
