Brilliant Ideas
sorenbarrett said:

Raw, powerful, gritty, dark, hard hitting, naked and exposed with some dark humor added as spice it sends its message like a shotgun blast. A fave

Those \'being good\' days
sorenbarrett said:

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. When I took typing in school way back when that is one of the sentences that we had to type. It seems to apply here. Nicely written

This is my home
sorenbarrett said:

A beautiful metaphor. When one is a guest or renter one has obligations to honor and respect the dwelling one is in, when one owns ones home one may do with it as one likes with respect to one\'s neighbors. Nicely written

Daily X Road

We are not taking another \'shortcut\' no matter how enticing the prospect. Great poem, loved it.

Daily X Road
sorenbarrett said:

A lovely write that can be taken two ways depending on perspective. The straight and narrow is generally considered the proper way to get to the desired goal but if misled it can lead one over a cliff. A wonderful write.

Where is the blood?
sorenbarrett said:

A poem most identifiable that questions the motives and even the value of the author and challenges him to break new ground of give up. It is a bold challenge and not one that I would agree with but it has force and maybe enough to raise the hackles on the dog. A fave

My first night in Krakow
sorenbarrett said:

A snapshot of life in a foreign town. Quite the adventure. Well done

Wings like the abyss
sorenbarrett said:

Just as I imagine her seductive, sensuous and quietly peaceful. A very calming read

A stripper he liked....
sorenbarrett said:

How some things change and others don\'t. A narrative that tells it as it is. Nicely done

Rough and silver linings
sorenbarrett said:

A bad day. But things seem to be looking up at least there is little left to fight over. A fun read about a terrible break up

A generation of men raise by pornstars

What world do we live in? We don\'t even interact with people anymore to share intimacy...

A generation of men raise by pornstars
sorenbarrett said:

This poem caught me a bit off guard in its turn to the sociopolitical. It is a magnificent metaphor and as the whore ages the picture does not creating cognitive dissonance when the real one is seen. A wonderful write.

[You were NOT supposed to be hilarious when you wrote like this on taboo topics.]

I have a hole in my ass
sorenbarrett said:

Now that\'s upsetting and a bit graphic as well like the time I had an old woman tell me was constipated and had to dig it out with a spoon.

Becalmed
Poetic Licence said:

A sense of a broken relationship that can be fixed, but they cannot do along, it has to be together, very nicely written

Cheeky Missy said:

Guess time alone will tell. Artists either required patrons whose will they were obligated to honour, or else lived and died unknown. Countless left to such a fate, this is beautifully rendered with lovely imagery and a delicate poignancy. Thank you for sharing, and thereby raising the question.

Ooh! But you\'ve played the metaphor gorgeously herein. Wow. Both the thing itself and the larger scope of reality. Awesome! I love, love, LOVE it!!!! Superbly rendered with nigh exquisite imagery and a deliciously haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Dull clear skies
sorenbarrett said:

Silence can be so uncomfortable and on other occasions so comfortable. It all depends on whom one is with. A lovely poem
