THIS hits different: holds a lifetime worth of story that diminishes any such romance to bland sorrow. and the pop-culture reference makes a great frame for the big picture of your clever camera!
I've read it thrice and: I've read it thrice and probably a few.more.times after posting this and still.concocting meanings bit they all boil down to the blushing cheeks to.which I will call a romantic line, I looked for monsters and peep holes but could find it to make sense so I just kept enjoying the maze over and over again with all its secret passages and dead ends. Thank you sir, a nod to you. A great way to pass some time reading your head but only ending up reading mine. Well played... well played!
How beautifully pondered is: How beautifully pondered is the faith that the wheels will still go round in what ever fashion, beautifully rendered a painting as magnificent as its frame guided and intricately carved catching the eye to signal what glory lies within and you did not disappoint! The stokes perfectly weighted the dark dancing with the light, the colours harmonising and clashing where they should placing drama unfolding into a renewal of at the very least high hopes drawing you into other dimensions of thought, experience and imagination with keys to emotions clicking open the locks at every line's end and yet still more is fathomed from the whole as much as the universe in each part. Beautifully and masterfully done, the fire to my smoke, water to my vapour, rich earth to my dust. Hugss Ss
Thank you quite: And I love how keenly you were able to pinpoint literally my intentions; certainly made me feel good and proud and I'm glad it didn't go unnoticed

Omg: He was a comedian in 2018. 2019 he gets elected, the following year he joins Nato partnership programe ,that which was not necessary. He knows his country is close to Russia but he does that*. Later, there's war in the country, for which he should be blamed. You call him a hero. Crimea was annexed for a reason, (good or bad). Looking at things right now, i don't think Russia has made a bad move. There's one thing Zelensky should learn from Belarusian Lukashenko - that, there's what we call neighbours. Not only* neighbours but neighbours they we're Ussr with. Nato is nothing, always will be a "foreigner". I love dictators because they keep a country "together", they preserve it.Also keep their neighbours safe. See what happens when you elect comedians? I heard that kanye west wanted to be elected -- do it, you might experience something worse.
I thank you for the kind: I thank you for the kind reply. As I have said since I began reading your Poetry, the posting of a new poem from you is an event, as you continue to construct and expand that "total edifice of total grandeur" (as Pop Stevens would call it). I love watching this process, and my comments and enthusiasm arise from the privilege of reading your wonderful Poetry.
Thank you so very much. : Thank you so very much. Sometimes I am still haunted by that debacle, even after forty-five years. It became the line of demarcation that separated time into the past to which I could not return, and the present that did not, back then, seem very conducive to people like me. It still haunts me once in a while, and from such hauntings poems like this issue forth, so I write them down.
I am so very grateful that you commented on this one. Your validating words make me feel better about the poem. Thank you for reading and commentong.
