crypticbard commented on: Pain is a memory by SSmoothie 2 years 25 weeks* ago* Enjoyed the morphemic sense: Enjoyed the morphemic sense generation, as if a symphonic personification is orchestrated to the thought of chronic pain and physical debility. And the despair that it brings along with it, that 'will forget the poetic persona's name' in the newness of the morrow. Thank you so much for sharing. /Rik. [ go to comment ]
SSmoothie commented on: Words Like Smoke and Sand by patriciajj 2 years 25 weeks* ago* Perfect! The poem i wish I'd: Perfect! The poem i wish I'd written. All the elements and beauty there. A pure old fashioned gaping Wow...! Its ben said by a few already. What could I add but the feelings and reactions in my soul and that feeling in my gut like every line was just gonna be right and it was and the relief at the end when perfection was not breeched. Beauty and talent transcended And I am sad because the possibility of me writing this poem is gone, but I am so happy to have read it. Thankyou so much! [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Once bethought by Pungus 2 years 25 weeks* ago* I love your "paper pursuit": I love your "paper pursuit" collection that ponders, deconstructs and reconstructs the craft itself: meta poetry. A love/hate relationship seems to be going on in this stunning and ambivalent reflection on a poem's lifespan and its quest for immortality. Will it scale the walls of time or die with the poet? Is it worthy? The brilliance of this introspection is its conclusion. The poem knows it may be a mere mortal, but it doesn't care. It doesn't take itself so seriously. Its gifted, delightfully sassy creator, although very capable of timeless work, quits asking questions and decides "instead to sit back and laugh". A pleasure to read and connect with.

patriciajj commented on: Critical Human Theory by allets 2 years 25 weeks* ago* This extremely crucial and: This extremely crucial and intelligent discussion comes at a time when laws are being passed to silence uncensored discussion about unresolved racism. I like your title's clever take on critical race theory and your wise, ultimate cure for the disease of white nationalism. As long as fascism doesn't dismantle democracy, financial desegregation will continue. Praying for a more egalitarian future. [ go to comment ]

alex73 commented on: Lost Cause by alex73 2 years 25 weeks* ago* Thank you. It's tough right: Thank you. It's tough right now. It helps me to write my thoughts and feelings down as they come to me. Sometimes it may not make sense but it's from a place in me that sometimes doesn't make sense [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: BASIC MATHEMATICS by georgeschaefer 2 years 25 weeks* ago* Raises glass in agreement.: Raises glass in agreement. The mathematics of poetry is more elusive than calculus. Thanks for sharing. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Easy Street by Cuplix 2 years 25 weeks* ago* Rooster will forever be to me: Rooster will forever be to me the father of Easy Street. When he sings it with his fiancee and Carol Burnett - the pillars of the mind just fills with ideas of that pipe dream. Your insightful and thoughtful poem gives more depth of consideration and wraps it up with an apt bow in the 5 last lines. And that shall stay with the reader, "together, this time." Thanks for sharing. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Emotional Insomniac by Cuplix 2 years 25 weeks* ago* A very fine and riveting: A very fine and riveting concept to describe what is termed here as the 'emotional amnesiac.' Only too glad to have come across this gem. Thanks for sharing. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: @ 27.225 MHz: WallStones; Welters Of Claire Clairmont's Long Seething Distress by Seryddwr 2 years 25 weeks* ago* You silenced great scholars.: You silenced great scholars. That's no small thing! You gave an impressive rebuttal to their pseudo-intellectual snobbery. It truly is an honor and a great pleasure to dive into these historical intrigues. I can imagine how difficult it is to set them to verse, but you always pull it off with flourished style and intensity. I'm deeply moved by your words of appreciation. You're forever welcome!
