patriciajj commented on: The mermaids feast by humanfruit 2 years 10 weeks* ago* A heart-stopping depiction of: A heart-stopping depiction of despair so complete that one is "incapable of even screaming". Your images of being devoured burn deep into the brain as you successfully transfer that inner death. I never assume that all poems are autobiographical, so I'll simply say this a crushing and mournful and amazing work of art. [ go to comment ]

crypticbard commented on: Crucible of Light by patriciajj 2 years 10 weeks* ago* This reminds me of a similar: This reminds me of a similar if horticultural image of pruning, were the hurting and severing do not kill but in the healing bring growth and more life, more living. That the calculations however minute are accurate and purposeful, as in the measuring and cutting of diamond facets, imagine the cost of a cutting mistake to the value and the finished product. And much more than the art and the science and math of it all is the heart and the spirit from which flow the wellsprings of life. [ go to comment ]

The Lord bless you and keep you. May His grace abound in you, and all around you as you move into the coming week. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Ribbons in the wind by humanfruit 2 years 10 weeks* ago* a meandering but sure journey: For some time now I have been hounded by Matejko's "Stańczyk" and have proceeded to extricate myself from that man in the mirror with definite likenesses of the soul's parts. And that brings this journey adjacent to the seeking of forgiveness along a path of chanting and whispering. This is probably the top contender to my personal glory poetry. And for that there is you to thank. [ go to comment ]

georgeschaefer commented on: COCKSUCKER OF ANOTHER KIND by georgeschaefer 2 years 10 weeks* ago* I wasn't speaking: I wasn't speaking specifically about poets being assholes here although it does happen. This was more about a lot of my friends, acquantances and co-workers in the real world. But yeah, there are some poets that can be real assholes, too. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: COCKSUCKER OF ANOTHER KIND by georgeschaefer 2 years 11 weeks* ago* I am always amazed at how: I am always amazed at how some very literate people, even poets, will bash another poet for his or her orientation and who he or she loves. Vergil who, far more than Homer, is foundational to all of Western literature, and was even considered by the early Christians to be a prophet of Christ's advent, was not hetero; and no one, during his lifetime in Rome, was the least bit bothered about it; not even his pal, the Emperor Augustus, who was a reactionary on so many other issues. We poets of the Western literary tradition are the spiritual daughters and sons of Vergil; and if some of us bash others for their orientation, we betray and dishonor the grandeur of his accomplishment.
