lyrycsyntyme commented on: Thirty Miles Out to Sea by RainerBukowski 1 year 48 weeks* ago* Powerful, capturing finish: Really captured, and trying to unravel, your final 5 lines and their deeper meaning, drawing from the whole poem. Most specifically, "The love I thought I found / was nothing but my fear, / I fear." Tones of a devastating awakening, yet ultimately a profound and existential awakening in the end.

lyrycsyntyme commented on: Peaceless by mittens4444 1 year 48 weeks* ago* Touching poem: Wish not for the death of hearts that beat. When fingers that can feel cracks become extinct, thus hope is severed from humankind for good. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: YOUR MOTHER’S ADVICE by georgeschaefer 1 year 48 weeks* ago* haha. Yea, if your mom didn't: haha. Yea, if your mom didn't succeed at getting you to do it, words on a wall are unlikely to do much. Those bathroom walls say a whole lot of things, anyway. I assume that most people don't "call jill for a good time at ...." [ go to comment ]

Starward commented on: Succor by shewhodwellsint... 1 year 48 weeks* ago* There is a tone to this poem: There is a tone to this poem that gives it a sense of being an ancient inscription that has lasted through the ages; just as the beauty of this poem, going forward, will also last for ages. If I were teaching a course on poetry, this poem would be on my syllabus: I think every aspiring poet, and even a well experienced poet, can learn a lot from this poem. Frankly, I think thiis is one of the best poems ever posted on postpoems. It will be a poem I revisit. [ go to comment ]

Teytonon commented on: Penn in play? Play Penn by Teytonon 1 year 48 weeks* ago* I see you’re a perfectionist like me.: I see you're a perfectionist like me. You're absolutely right. The line has been changed. Thanks for pointing it out to me! [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Penn in play? Play Penn by Teytonon 1 year 48 weeks* ago* This is good, and I agree,: This is good, and I agree, but I would suggest an adjustment to the eighth line. The pronoun, "he," doubles back to the nearest proper noun, which is Fetterman; with the implication (which stumbled me at first) that Fetterman would accuse the Democrats, his own party, of cheating. If Fetterman wins, and an accusation of cheating is raised, it will be Oz or Trump (who is really the Wizard of Oz, in this case, as the man behind the screen pulling the control levers) who will raise that accusation. Just replace "he'll" with "Oz'll" and the line will read more accurately and smoothy. Otherwise, this is an excellent political poem. [ go to comment ]
