Drive

Those wheels like the gears of the machinery of time never stop and can not be guided but grind out their work. Well done

Life’s a Nude Beach

Soren(above) is getting tired. He it\'s master couldn\'t, or chose not to, see the metaphor here.
But you never respond. \'Play up and play the game\' you will get a wider readership; your poetry is worth the effort.
I\'m probably out of order here - there\'s a possibility you have other more productive avenues....

Such a good point made here, why are people ashamed of their naked form no other animal seems to be.

Exodus
sorenbarrett said:
I am most glad for the author note for in reading the poem first it sounded more like birth and I was not so sure about purifying the world. Now it makes more sense. Powerful in that sense of interpretation

There is a definite foreboding to this poem that is echoed in each of its lines. Well done

My warrantee ran out long ago. I think when I was born my parents were told that that model was beyond repair. A good write made me smile.

This poem presents sex as a marker of a relationship not animal gratification, and I use the term animal loosely. A poem of values. Nicely written

Subterranean Tragedy

When unfulfilled we call it a regret but if it were to have worked out it might have been a regret of another nature so count it a blessing. Good write

This poem starts as a horror spectacle then in metaphor becomes just deserts for the past. Nicely worded it leaves a dark image. Well done

The Burial
sorenbarrett said:
It is the pairing of opposites in this poem that gives it its unexpected contrasts and appeal. It is gritty and dark with vast changes in emotion and meaning in the mind taking one on an emotional journey and smacks of the old Russian style of Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Turgenev and carries that same darkness. It is in its mystery where the object is not revealed that the real interest lies and just like a magician you never reveal your tricks maintaining the aura where the mistake of a reveal would spoil the whole thing. A lovely piece of art that leave me covetous. A fave

Wreckage
sorenbarrett said:
A great set of metaphors here decorate this poem of lost love. The house, the tree, the window, the ornament. All aged, dark, rotted, broken, shattered yet in this another metaphor of the rainbow a promise that it will never come again. Yet like reality where rainbows may signal an end to a storm they make false promises. A fave

Friendship said:
Well written, your poem explores themes of youthful innocence, the transient nature of life, and the bittersweet experience of growing up. It captures a moment of connection between two individuals in a setting that juxtaposes the seriousness of death with the joy of youthful exploration.
