crypticbard commented on: main architect by redbrick 3 years 17 weeks* ago* It brings memories of the: It brings memories of the pupil's years of tutelage and apprenticeship. It went against the grain for a short time but also instilled a respect and growing love and familiarity with the traditional forms, and their validly being among a wider range of literary expression. Thanks most kindly, Patricia. [ go to comment ]

Very clever, how you demonstrated your point with melodic grace. Enjoying the videos as well! I wish I had time to read more.You have too much talent, my friend. [ go to comment ]

My prayers go out to you in your time of distress. Your illuminating comments remain a lifeline to my slowly emerging collection.

God bless you always and in all ways. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Footnote: Cosmological Tanka; A Poem For Patriciajj by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 17 weeks* ago* Delicate thunder. How you: Delicate thunder. How you distilled Infinity to the essence of Now and illustrated our microscopic yet vast place in the order of things is astonishing. This gleaming pebble of Truth applies to you and several others I can think of as well. My deepest and most humble gratitude for this breathtaking recognition. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: @ 27.225 MHz: WallStones; Epigram After Reading Some Of Robert Aickman's Stories, 2 by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 17 weeks* ago* Stunned. I could have sworn: Stunned. I could have sworn you were channeling the master himself in this very Aickmanesque and very absorbing mini thriller. You crept into his brazenly perilous territory, using the second person POV to put us right on stage with the terror, and then you let it rip. Fantastic! I loved every twisted, pulsing, slithering, white-knuckle moment and the ultimate shiver—the suggestion of everything unthinkable: "if, by then, you still have a mind left at all" Thank you kindly for the acknowledgement. I'm honored and pleased that you took my encouragement and ran with it. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Forever Was a Moment by patriciajj 3 years 17 weeks* ago* Sometimes the only saving: Sometimes the only saving grace is that "one star-crazed glint of memory upon the endless script of night." And perhaps that is the worth of "centuries of joy distilled" in that singular moment that glints when its summoning calls such as at this time. Superb expression of sorrow. [ go to comment ]

crypticbard commented on: Footnote: After The Autumn Equinox by S74rw4rd-13d 3 years 17 weeks* ago* Brings a thought: could the: Brings a thought: could the cold stone marble slab in its silence and only the desolate breeze be an exact quietude after a fireworks display of an earthly roadtrip into the hereafter? The engraved letters in the cold light of a silent moon mute the sound of their meaning still.... that after the autumn equinox the cold of winter's reticence, her chilly fingers pass and caress.
