Comments received on poems by Lorenz
The house of the unsaid
Ellen Marsell said:
This poem speaks of separation - of breaking away from a toxic inheritance, of the truth that one can only truly become oneself by destroying what was imposed. It reads like a psychological map of the soul, a confession before oneself.

Enlightenment flowers
Ellen Marsell said:
It is a kind of mystical diary of humanity. Within it resonate archetypes, religions, and philosophies, yet everything converges into one: life is a game, and only by accepting it as such do we attain that ‘dark clarity’ which you call enlightenment.

This poem takes several turns and ends abruptly in obscure enlightenment. Well done

The child of the depths
Ellen Marsell said:
A beautiful, candid yet tender confession of a soul that grew out of water and refused to dry itself under the ‘golden’ sun of external reason. And if one must choose a light, then better the moon’s: it does not burn, it gives language.

Ah what we label childhood dreams when adults are the reality of adolescence and the fantasy of children may be reality ignored. Nicely written

The poet in hell

Poets do not belong in the religious and traditional heaven and must be consigned to hell. I too would choose my seat next to theirs. Lovely

Ellen Marsell said:
This poem is a metaphor for the creative destiny: a poet condemned both by the world and by his own inspiration. An allegory of art as a curse.

Human condition
Ellen Marsell said:
It is a plunge into the darkness of the human soul. Literary and cultural images are turned into symbols of loss and illusion. This way of connecting the world of myth and fairy tale with the cruelty of reality makes your text deeply eloquent. So powerful and evocative.

A poem with several references to literature and the feel of falling down the rabbit hole. A new land with different rules surrealistic

Within this \"unfinishedness\" lies a simple truth: life is beautiful because it is never complete, always leaving space for another brushstroke, another feeling, another meaning.
Impressive!

Ellen Marsell said:
This poem is about the attempt to hold on to a moment that, by its very nature, cannot be held. In its \"unfinished\" form lies its wholeness - just as in music, sometimes the pause sounds louder than the note itself.

Images pour out of this poem in a smorgasbord of flavors running down the sides as syrups on an ice-cream parfait. Delightful and delicious.

Wow, beautifullly put. I\'ve been prejudiced against the French for a long time, probably because they\'ve been in steep decline probably since Louis IX...

A delightful poem. With a gentle smile, you strike at the sacred cows — not destroying them, but giving them a slight nudge so they roll down the hill of history.

Love, like nature, moves in cycles. It can be as bright as summer, as fragile as autumn, and inevitably enter its winter.

I loved the flow of color through this poem where a woman well could be a relationship that has all the elements mentioned, the very loss of one\'s soul. It all carries through to the end. Nicely put together in a modernistic surreal portrayal. All so well done a fave

There is a sense of deep symbolism and a strong emotional current here — the words sound like the echo of a personal story that was never allowed to reach its conclusion.
