Every thought shallow or deep is a true line. Poets have both, deep emotional stuff or fanatasy, which I mostly write about. I like the free verse form and structure of your words.

Thanks for this poem. The picture and the poem really set up a striking atmosphere. The words really sound beautiful, and the imagery is quite beautiful too. Notwithstanding the five-star, however, given for all of the above, I find the poem confusing. Perhaps you could make the wording more connected?

    "am" if I may call you that,

    ...let me try something...

    To be straight to the point is the reason for no flowery arrangement of unecessary words. The author is standing at his papers demise and willing it to live...he has had a sad piece of news, his paper is blank...roused with passion and heartfelt emotion he stirs to give a last speech before he gives up forever.

    Now how do I expect to put that emotion in a short breif encounter of free verse with the most impact for the reader linguistically and visually.

    I thought it was quite connected...a clue perhaps...his paper is the orphans grave.

Words are powerful whether they come easily or haltingly--whether they are sung, etched, or written. Your use of simile and personification are effective.

Love this poem! Each time you read it you get something else out of it. Your metaphors are jumping from to deck to deck as each ship of thoughts pass each other by. Wonderful writing! Les
