patriciajj commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 51 weeks* ago* I completely embrace your: I completely embrace your egalitarian ideals for poetry and all forms of art. A worthy goal, well stated. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Redemption by patriciajj 1 year 51 weeks* ago* A word picture of a: A word picture of a relationship that brings to itself all and everything, causing all exterior influences to still themselves and create a cosmos between love's two parties as they become one more with the dynamic union of Creator and Created.

crypticbard commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* Thank you kind sir. And such: Thank you kind sir. And such attacks, whichever direction that they may be made are what this expression is about. We all have personal preferences but that should never be the reason for demeaning or ostracising what is not to one's personal taste. What may not be our proverbial cup of tea is definitely rightfully someone else's. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* It is my hope that validation: It is my hope that validation be given at every quarter, dear poet. A long standing criteria in the recognition of poetry is the elevation of language and from whatever end of tthe socioeconomic strata and their corresponding use of language, as they express that elevation of heart and soul through articulation then poetry results. Thanks most kindly. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Dragon? what dragon? by humanfruit 1 year 52 weeks* ago* Sometimes the tendrils of: Sometimes the tendrils of smoke undulate and float as oriental dragons slithering in the air. At ohter times the smoke is somewhat a signification that dragons are close by. But what dragons, indeed! [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: A Sight of Me by beenjammin7 1 year 52 weeks* ago* An very engaging play on: An very engaging play on words and concepts that connected with the loss and the vision of what was lost. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Dragon? what dragon? by humanfruit 1 year 52 weeks* ago* You really had me tripping: You really had me tripping here: "Unleashing from its mouth Magic floods instead Of fairytale firestorms" Although my feet are firmly planted on the ground in my clean and sober life, I had a blast wrapping my head around your dazzling, free-flowing, innovative flight. The word "again" juxtaposed will eternal references was a brilliant choice. Nice tour of your psyche. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* oh that, anyone in: oh that, anyone in particular? It's always first and foremost to myself and secondarily to anyone who has found themselves on either end of the polarisation. For me to write to someone in specific it would have to be a less 'political' topic and definitely not on a poetic but more direct fashion. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* You make an astute and clever: You make an astute and clever case for the validity of both styles and everything in between with the words: "soul of each poet heart of each poem elevated in poetry" I've appreciated a wide variety of styles, and what you described was always the common ground: it simply moved me. A great opening for a discussion. Deftly penned as always. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* The first stanza describes,: The first stanza describes, quite succinctly, the horrible attacks upon the Poetry of T. S. Eliot, Wallace Stevens, and Vergil; among many others. [ go to comment ]
Pungus commented on: walk out, don't run : antipolarity by redbrick 1 year 52 weeks* ago* Fanspin fun: I think my favorite factor about your poetry is not only that I get to research new definitions- and thereby receive their ribbon-wrapped playthings of epic insightful clarity- but I actually am drawn to do so because your flow is just that good. I'm curious though, is the title a suggestion to someone specific in mind? [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: In The Spirit Of Thanks Giving by BMosley 1 year 52 weeks* ago* Thank you for sharing with: Thank you for sharing with us. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Paradox Of Old Age by Seryddwr 1 year 52 weeks* ago* I am not entirely sure I: I am not entirely sure I understand the question, so please forgive me if I answer incorrectly. The phrase "life's three decade measure" leads me to believe you are asking this in view of yourself. Any kind of learning expansion---formal or informal---is worth the time, even when life, like mine, has a six (and almost a half) decade measure. [ go to comment ]
