-Great artwork and
good presentation, Doug.
-Your muse did a good job.
-The beginning is dramatic
with the wind whipping
your paper.
-The next verse follows
that very well, for now
what you had written is gone.
-I like the ending, too.
-Thanks for sharing
your imagination and creativity.

This is abstract but poetic. Your muse is very smart. You try to write and interpret this piece of art and it is very hard because it can be interpreted in many different ways.
Well done.

Thank you. I like when the reader can go in different directions.
Comment from Seshadri_Sreenivasan
We live in a world where the word 'ageing' is often paired with 'anti'. Your poem puts a different spin on the completely normal process of getting older. A very unual poem. Out-of-the-box. I like the mood and imagery it sets. Thanks for sharing!

I liked how you created this whirlwind rhythm and used it to underscore your theme of the ephemeral nature of man and his creations, his hopes and dreams. Also a great image of those tattered papers scattering in the wind. estory

I enjoyed reading your poem swept away and loved the artwork you incorporated in your presentation. Sometimes the words we write swim before our eyes and take on a life of their own. Lovely. PM

I like this. "abstract " poem as you call it. I like the tone, the mood it sets. The illustration is on point. I get alot of imagery from the sparse yet lyrical lines. I like poems that have an element of mystery

Hi Victor,
Hmmm, this is about the writing process perhaps and the summits and pitfalls that come with the territory of creating? I gleaned this from your words. Well penned that captures that fleeting feeling of success and then memory and creative thoughts flip away on the wind...
" Fly my pathos,
for I knew thee well.
Now, a kernel,
a seed,
to rot
or take"
...a great editing assist, that pesky wind :))
Always,
Senyai
