patriciajj commented on: smoke and mirrors by redbrick 2 years 49 weeks* ago* Brilliant! The structure: Brilliant! The structure sharply illustrates the nerve-jangling, dead-end process suffered by anyone who has ever had the experience of interacting with an irrational, slippery control freak. You even listed, in ascending order of aggravation, some of the verbal abuser's favorite infuriating, mind-numbing tactics used to keep one ensnared in their juvenile labyrinth. Then realizing they just aren't worth our time and effort, you mock the lunacy with hilarious word play and bring the poem to an outrageously delightful, visual conclusion. Spot on and thoroughly enjoyable. [ go to comment ]

But where it's found in a moment." Everyday Zen. Love it! [ go to comment ]

Teytonon commented on: If only the years were knowledge. by S.X.K 2 years 50 weeks* ago* Thank you for this..: Thank you for this wonderful poem. If I may add the following: If only the years were knowledge I'm sure some of us, as we grow older Would accrue enough knowledge to graduate college While others, who no matter how old they get Still play the fool and will be in grade school And of course, there are a few, sad to say Who will still be in pre-K!

patriciajj commented on: The Art of Human Suffering by FuriousIce 2 years 50 weeks* ago* It takes uncommon skill to: It takes uncommon skill to turn anguish into outstanding art. What a ride! Every twist and turn of intricate thought, every juxtaposition of words, every jolt of unsettling reality was penned with sheer brilliance. How I wanted to swim against some of your stark, immersive waves of defeat and travail, but I have been in this place at times myself and made the same observations about society that I couldn't help making a strong connection to your words. The fury, the catharsis, at the end was palpable. A spectacular and explosive study of despair. Amazing stuff. [ go to comment ]
