Starward commented on: I have Lung Cancer by williamjroneyiii 3 years 14 weeks* ago* My heart goes out to you: is: My heart goes out to you: is the diagnosis confirmed? The last line seems a little vague. [ go to comment ]
SSmoothie commented on: Satanic seed by Pungus 3 years 14 weeks* ago* Yup.: Yup. [ go to comment ]
SSmoothie commented on: My Eternal Mend by deepblue 3 years 14 weeks* ago* That's some heavy baggage I: That's some heavy baggage I resonated with some of the emotions and the descriptions. The pain is clear but hazy and confused Moments of clarity and darkness I was there with you I felt Punching my way out of a black garbage bag Only I couldn't get through because Some how if the bag broke id be free And that to me just felt so lonely! Great write deep blue Hugss [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: MTM approved by Teytonon 3 years 14 weeks* ago* A man who exists to lend: A man who exists to lend credibility to the empty suits. People who were starting to be seen through. A very clever ruse. When it has some people who hated George W. Bush with a passion saying "I miss him", the billionaires have won. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: The Luxury by Jesster 3 years 14 weeks* ago* In such a few short lines,: In such a few short lines, this poem says a lot about what, I think, is very probably a universal experience. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: MTM approved by Teytonon 3 years 14 weeks* ago* Thank you for reminding us of: Thank you for reminding us of the dire truths that now face us, and against which we must cast our votes---if need be---in November of 2024. I have often felt, and even suggested among my own social circle, that those of us who wish to see the failure of Trump's next attempt (to establish his dictatorship and destroy our democracy) ought to register as members of his party, just for the Primaries, so that he can be denied the denomination. He would likely need to be defeated in the General Election as well, but denial of the Party Nomination would be a crushing blow to his campaign. [ go to comment ]
Morningglory commented on: Where the kiwis I eat by Pungus 3 years 14 weeks* ago* lol: loose shit isn't necessarily healthy but at least it moves out fairly quickly [ go to comment ]
Morningglory commented on: The Luxury by Jesster 3 years 14 weeks* ago* thank you: it was literal [ go to comment ]
Pungus commented on: The Luxury by Jesster 3 years 14 weeks* ago* Just the dose I needed: The hint of humor and frustration in the lines "and shit//from angry cats" sent me soaring. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Memories of a friend of mine by ponsford 3 years 14 weeks* ago* "Faulting ears" seem to be a: "Faulting ears" seem to be a natural enemy to poems and a fearful inevitability for poets to encounter. But the enduring love that bring memories to life give a freedom to feel and heal even in times of grief. May you mourn well and move into the celebration of friendship's love. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: skinned alive by redbrick 3 years 14 weeks* ago* Seen as a poetic summation of: Seen as a poetic summation of sorts, that is both a succinct and useful description of what took place here. And for that I am most thankful dear Starward. There is a tinge of rue that presence is all that will come off of this but I may be proven wrong yet again in these feelings. So for now it is forward and onward. The Muse calls. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Some Housekeeping Changes To My Collection Of Poems by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 14 weeks* ago* Thank you. I guess I just: Thank you. I guess I just wanted to explain why a few, a very few, of my poems are duplicated. I have been at postpoems long enough that I feel like I need not be accused of seeking unwarranted attention with duolicates, or padding out my own numbers---which has never been part of my purpose in posting here.

Pungus commented on: Some Housekeeping Changes To My Collection Of Poems by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 14 weeks* ago* PAPER PURSUIT: These are notes I made a few days ago: Retitle the poems, choose a format (capitalizations, 100% grammar?), revise [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: When we were young by ponsford 3 years 14 weeks* ago* That reminds me of the: That reminds me of the closeness between me and my best friend since kindergarten: the closeness, an intensely delightful closeness, that we shared during through elementary school became, suddenly, subversive (according to parental authorities) when we entered adolescence, because, in our small town at that time, two adolescent boys who shared close friendships were often the target of homophobia.
