patriciajj commented on: Melodies XLIX; The Professor Visits His Former Graduate Assistant by Starward-Led 3 years 23 weeks* ago* I always loved your micro: I always loved your micro epics that incorporate saavy humor, satirical style and some real chills as well. What could be more indulgent and delightful? It certainly brings back great memories of old horror classics that I couldn't get enough of back in the day. With your whimsical descriptive powers and intriguing narration, you conjured up some shock—and some oddly satisfying laughs. The speaker's sardonic attitude, the speaker's situation itself, the experimenter's nonchalant attitude towards his errors, the dystopian project and the mystery of who was being addressed added several layers of enjoyment to this rich, dark and thrilling tale. You did it again! Fantastic! [ go to comment ]
Teytonon commented on: DNR? Worse shape than I thought by Teytonon 3 years 23 weeks* ago* I don’t understand…: I don't understand either of you two. Do you know what I was trying to do here? I took the names 'Donald Trump' and 'Ron Desantis' and from the 22 letters that make up their names, came up with what I did. I explained it already. Besides Trump and DeSantis, is there anyone else you would support? Choose someone who's not a stupid moron. Joe Biden's not a stupid moron, but you won't choose him. In the meantime... STEPHEN, FREE-SPIRITED_WOLF = HE'S PRESIDENT. O F! E W, RIT? EL! P? F! [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Standing Before The Mirror by satishverma 3 years 23 weeks* ago* Excellent! Seems to me like: Excellent! Seems to me like the last few of your poems that I have read have followed this format---three triplets, or three squared, for a total of nine lines in each poem. Is this a significant detail for you, and may I ask what that significance means? [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Thanks Dax ~ dear alcohol by readmy5tuff 3 years 23 weeks* ago* Your high-voltage, rap-style: Your high-voltage, rap-style expression is certainly a relatable journey for me. I felt like you were writing about an old friend, my best friend for a while, until it became my worst enemy, and I finally felt, as you did, that "I deserve to be the me that I recognize". Well said! With your resolve, insight and intelligence, I'm sure you'll find the road to freedom. Enjoyed your very moving, artistic and honest creation. [ go to comment ]
Free-Spirited_Wolf commented on: TAKE PRIDE IN WHO YOU ARE by joy 3 years 23 weeks* ago* Great advice. Sometimes we: Great advice. Sometimes we all need reminded of this. [ go to comment ]

crypticbard commented on: a little poem's wayfaring by redbrick 3 years 23 weeks* ago* Your much welcome interaction: Your much welcome interaction and comment brings me to the memory of reading play scripts wherein the narrator's and the playwright's notes are equally "on the page" as the literary text itself. That is such a beuatiful meld of voices, a fluid nebula of stream of consciousness even. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: a little poem's wayfaring by redbrick 3 years 23 weeks* ago* No need to worry Starward.: No need to worry Starward. Let's just admire the art that grafitti is in all its forms. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: a little poem's wayfaring by redbrick 3 years 23 weeks* ago* Forgive me: Forgive me for opening a second comment uselessly. This was a typo I cannot now delete. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: a little poem's wayfaring by redbrick 3 years 23 weeks* ago* I like how this poem tells us: I like how this poem tells us how it should be read (some of Wallace Stevens' finest do that as well): it is to be received as a lilting melody that flows further than the far-away glow of the faintest star, and so delicate that not even the finest mist can kiss it. This is superb verbal artistry at its highest level. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: Fucked-Up by metaphorist 3 years 23 weeks* ago* The paradox of blame and: The paradox of blame and responsibility across generations. As the song Living Years goes: "Every generation / blame the one before / And all of their frustrations / come beating down your door." I do not believe that this cycle exists in all societies. And most certainly, if it does, in some realms it's very subtle and often goes unnoticed, unsaid. I think that the cycle, and even more so the perceptions of it, are largely a product of excess and spoils of empire. Those living closer to the ground have far less time, and reason, to see themselves as a bi-product of a previous generation. [ go to comment ]
Free-Spirited_Wolf commented on: I Know Better by metaphorist 3 years 24 weeks* ago* We all endure the Façade of a: We all endure the Façade of a manipulator/Narcissist, pretending to be Prince Charming, just so they can tear you down and break you apart, while pretending that they are the victims and you're the bad guy. But what great joy it is when you finally see through the Façade and you see who they really are and you leave torn. So much more peaceful. [ go to comment ]

Free-Spirited_Wolf commented on: Let Me Go by Invisibletoall 3 years 24 weeks* ago* If you are still with him, : If you are still with him, you should leave. I know that's easier said than done. In time you would be happier without him. Might hurt at first, but you'll heal and in that healing, you'll find peace and happiness. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to be treated right. You deserve respect. You deserve to be treated with love. You deserve companionship. [ go to comment ]
