Wordman commented on: Nonchalant by Wordman 23 weeks 21 hours* ago* Thank you Starward, I: Thank you Starward, I appreciate such positive feedback from an educated writer such as yourself. I mainly write for my own pleasure, good or bad, to share with myself a different direction in life, but to be able to reach, and promote memories, happy or sad, in another person, is utterly satisfying, and am amazed at the reception my words have received over the years. thank you again, and good writing to you Sir.

J-Called commented on: A Night On The Porch by Wordman 23 weeks 2 days* ago* I am usually too verbose in: I am usually too verbose in many of my comments, but I must confess that this poem reaches me at such an elemental level that I do not have sufficient words to describe its impact upon me. I selected this poem at what I thought was a random browse; but I do not now believe the browse was random, I believe it was directed. I was led here, and I am mighty glad that I was.

J-Called commented on: Nonchalant by Wordman 23 weeks 2 days* ago* Stephen's comment directed me: Stephen's comment directed me to this poem, and I am might glad I did. This poignant resonance of this poem is so powerful that, while reading it, I felt the wind had been knocked out of me. This poem speaks volumes to me about two periods in my life, in the same year (1976)---and, reading through the poem, I felt that old emotion climb back into my throat, as if I had stepped into a time machine. I do not know the provenance of the poem, and it is really none of my business, but I can assure that---for this reader---this poem becomes a very personalized statement of emotions that swept through me during the summer after I turned eighteen.

Don't you see how they matched? You know what I'm referring to? Is your head now in a whirl? I'll be your 'Yolk, oh? Oh no! boy' If you'll be my 'littlelennongurl' [ go to comment ]
Teytonon commented on: EMBRACE IT! by wisdomscry 23 weeks 2 days* ago* Though your New Years..: Though your New Years wish is somewhat belated It is very much appreciated. The same to you and your family. By the way, regarding your online name Bob Marley said 'No woman, no cry' You're 'wisdomscry' Does that mean you believe 'No wisdom, no cry'?I must disagree. I feel the opposite. Still enjoy reading your poems though. [ go to comment ]

J-Called commented on: + 27.225 MHz: Brief Poem About Patriciajj's Poetry [XLIX] by S74RW4RD 23 weeks 4 days* ago* As I have said before, and: As I have said before, and will continue to say, watching your collection of Poems expand on this site, is one of the great privileges of membership in PostPoems, and of my life personally. Decades ago, when I studied (as devoutly as a twenty-something can) the poems of Eliot, Vergil, and Stevens, I wondered what it would be like to watch in real time, rather than to simply read about as past literary history. But, although I did not know it then, I was being prepared, even that long ago, to watch your Poetry accumulate here. Your Cosmic perspective, and attentiveness to the nuances of language, are exponentially refined and so artistically deployed. I have also said that the posting of any new Poem from you is an event to be celebrated, and I will always believe that. I am grateful to some very great scholars---Hugh Kenner, Samuel French Morse, and Helen Vendler---whose writings taught me how to more deeply appreciate your Poetry. [ go to comment ]
