ramonathompsont commented on: THOUGHTS ON ACTING by pamschwetz 1 year 14 weeks* ago* very well written piece on a: very well written piece on a fine craft and artform [ go to comment ]
Tetra_nova commented on: Lunch by Tetra_nova 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Thank you. You're always very: Thank you. You're always very kind about my work Im particularly foul mouthed in average speech and wanted to add a drop of my naturally visceral nature in since none of my other work contains that, usually. You'll see it now and then as I'm starting to let loose the rest of my drafts. Sometimes it's necessary because I feel strongly about many subjects and it requires expletive emphasis. I also wanted it to feel a little silly since I'm normally quite serious in my writing but I'm jovial in person. Thanks for understanding! [ go to comment ]
S74rw4rd commented on: Lunch by Tetra_nova 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Except for the expletive in: Except for the expletive in the final line, this is a magnificently evocative poem. And that fourth line, the phrase "body of my want," is one of the finest I have ever read here, or elsewhere (and I have been reading Poetry for half a century as of this past April).

uninvited_1 commented on: In Memoriam by Teytonon 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Seems This country went down: Seems This country went down the shitter well before 2023. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: NOT KEN ENOUGH by georgeschaefer 1 year 14 weeks* ago* In most cases, we could use: In most cases, we could use less mass confusion, but something tells me that when it comes to a film about Barbie, sprinkling some in might do good. We may have to find someone in the community here who can design a prototype haha. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: If I shoved you by Teytonon 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Well, it's not that it isn't: Well, it's not that it isn't well written. Much better to write it out than to act it out. I always stayed well behind the yellow line when any stranger was directly around him on the subway platform. Just in case, for someone, writing poetry wasn't enough. [ go to comment ]
Teytonon commented on: If I shoved you by Teytonon 1 year 14 weeks* ago* It’s my mind..: It's my mind if you don't mind. It's pretty abyssmal in there as you pointed out. I dive in there on occasion to clean stuff out. I wasn't that successful as my most recent poem illustrates. [ go to comment ]
georgeschaefer commented on: NOT KEN ENOUGH by georgeschaefer 1 year 14 weeks* ago* I was just playing around: I was just playing around with the Barbie film. I haven't seen it yet but Ken and Alan (long since discontinued) were dolls in the series. Maybe Mattell should add a "George" doll to the series. It would add a touch of surrealism and mass confusion to the mix. [ go to comment ]
S74rw4rd commented on: Consider This And Sleep On It by J-C4113D 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Thank you very much for that: Thank you very much for that very complimentary comment. That you find the poem to be horrific means I have succeeded. Your validation makes me feel much better about the poem. I deeply appreciated the mention of Dante who was, as you guessed, in the back of my mind when I wrote it. His Inferno was one of the first long poems I read in my first couple of years of reading Poetry. Your phrase fun-sized, white-knuckle chills brought the widest of grateful smiles to my face, [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Consider This And Sleep On It by J-C4113D 1 year 14 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. [ go to comment ]
life_used_to_be... commented on: know you through music by tallsquirrelgirl 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Hello there. I haven't read: Hello there. I haven't read your stuff in probably 2 years. You have really grown and blossomed as a writer. This poem kicks Ass. Hope to see more! And IM me sometime if you want. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: If I shoved you by Teytonon 1 year 14 weeks* ago* Curious to know the inspiration for this: Whose mind are you diving into the abyss of? [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: NOT KEN ENOUGH by georgeschaefer 1 year 14 weeks* ago* I don't know who Ken and Alan: I don't know who Ken and Alan are but, my friend, I'm sure they're not George enough. All the best as you journey on. [ go to comment ]
