patriciajj commented on: Consider This And Sleep On It by J-C4113d 1 year 8 weeks ago
Gasp! I mean that in a very: Gasp! I mean that in a very good way. I mean that as: "Wow! If it was horror you were going for, you delivered!"    The reader really plunges into an abyss of pure terror here. For me, what really turned the screws with savage, Dante-like eloquence was the blistering vividness of your descriptions and a voice like an avalanche of doom.   And that grand finale: it really did resound with what could be an exact definition of horror. Your blazing imagination never takes a holiday, great wordsmith!    An outstanding example of fun-sized, white-knuckle chills.

This is a lovely poem, but: This is a lovely poem, but the final two lines brought a wry smile to my face:  because, frankly, I doubt you have many faults and quirks; instead, I think you have, rather, a very poetic soul . . . and if the world interprets that as faults and quirks, so be it.  Although I do not keep up with your poems as well as I should these days (I fault my declining health as a primary reason), I already know that you are one of this site's most excellent Poets.

I am always glad to see: I am always glad to see multiple comments on your poems.  It reminds me of how the JWT photographs a star multiple times, and then the images are merged for an enhancement of detail.  Future scholars (and there will be, I am convinced of it, future scholars looking at your work) will read these comments on multiple aspects of your poems the way astronomers look at the JWT multiple images.

The Mt. Dew line definitely: The Mt. Dew line definitely made me laugh.   We are ill as a society, too often taking joy in each other's demise. Thankfully this twisted 'celebration' was only over soccer. But we've all seen people celebrate more serious losses.

Hi. I tried the audio link..: Hi. I tried the audio link, it worked fine, no problem. In my opinion, the audio didn't add or detract anything from the words on the page. They stand on their own as good writing. Have a great day.
