Spinoza commented on: skeletal ghosts of Sao Paolo by Spinoza 2 years 2 weeks ago
Many gracious moons of thanks:   The soul is a strange instrument – something akin to a tuning fork, that it can feel melancholy from a world away.   That we can dance or sing or cry, and actually resonate with far off vibrations from other souls, is one of the soul’s greatest miracles.   And it’s always a pleasure, someone of your talent still reading my stuff. Especially when this place becomes, what seems to be at times, a quiet desert.   And most especially, when I have doubts and begin to wonder, if anyone even reads poetry any more. Poetry is a place of contemplation and reflection, and sometimes I think the world is moving too fast to appreciate poetry.   But the fact that you and a few others are still around, is what keeps me going. Many gracious moons of thanks.     ~/~

Well, you've heard this: Well, you've heard this before and you will probably hear it again: this is my favorite of yours! My favorites list keeps growing.   So where do I begin?   The curtain opened to display, with mood-altering and spellbinding beauty, the setting of your gripping story. Then the old man was introduced with such a shrewd poetic sleight of hand that he was a part of the sumptuous peace and mystery that had already captivated me.   " . . . keeping the rhythm and time of an old man's breathing." Gorgeous.   That was dazzling enough, but then a crescendo of euphoria builds as it becomes apparent that these are the old man's final moments on Earth, that he has one foot in Heaven's Light.     You used imagery like a sage to capture the surreal transcendence, the all-consuming summit of joy, the unsurpassable release "just beyond those same/ stars that the lake's clarity reflects." Along with a sense of place, there's also an electrifying sense of the time when, in spite of ruthless persecution, Christianity was blossoming and beginning to ignite the world.   Without the bells and whistles of unnecessary drama or diction, you stayed true to the elegant message of hope, ending on a perspective that truly lifts our sights to place far above life's turmoil, and this is where the Light rains down from Heaven:   As he waits for the "call" (future tense) he is, in a mystical and undeniable sense, already Home as he has been since he was first "called" (past tense). With the Savior in his heart he was never alone. What an enthralling, exhilarating, stirring way to illuminate scripture!     I was transfixed. Bravo!

You sound like..: You sound like you need a break. Is there anyone out there who can give this woman a break? If the breaks you get need cleaning and/or tightening, I'd be happy to take care of that for you, but you'll have to stay in the garage overnite.
