This work has reached the exceptional level

Oh the relating nature of this poem has caught my sleepy eyes as I need some and wake with such great despair as the need of reflections breaking black! Excellent and perfect nonet. As I read down I said what is it leading up to......to something so well described. The opening is capturing. The nonet brings life to this already captivating picture.

These memories crawl between my dreams
like threaded ivy barbed ~ fanged twists
Crying streams bleed salt wishes
and blind my morning hope ~
reflections break black...
Can you see me?
Waking eyes
plead for
sleep

A very good looking Nonet Greg. It has some beauty to it because it had you taking the time for the right words and not just throwing in any old word. Awesome done guy.

fitful dreams bring tears of sorrow and you wish they would stop happening and end so you can go back to sleep again but these dreams keep coming and going where you are trying to sleep

Powerful and moving nonet, Greg. I love the words you select to describe the emotions. I do have two suggestions...nonet poetry is centered on the page to dramatize the decreasing lines. Also, I wonder if twist should be twists because there is more than one barb wire.

Best wishes to you in the contest.
Smiles,
Karyn : )

    You did it. I think you fixed the shape with that fix! "Twists". Does it look right?
