I enjoy reading poetry aloud. I feel it is the only way to read poetry. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your poem. What a great tongue twister and mind twister. How you ever worked those words, lines and concepts to make sense is amazing. Or at least you've drawn this reader in, to believe it makes sense. Very clever. The picture you chose is paralleled with your poem in that they are equally to discern. You may have accomplished one of your goals, to get the reader to pause and take notice. Is this a satire on language and how hard people try to understand and definitely give the appearance that they get it. Might I at the risk of offending, say this is excellent gobbledygook.

This lyrical poem has shadings of both anaphora (line beginnings) and sestina (spiral end pattern), poetic forms.This work reminds me of cubist art, a viewer wondering, right eye with left cheek? Excellently done.

Not my style not my thing to have someone tell me they are a poet but live in their own world of rules and boundaries... Kudos to yo if it makes you happy to express yourself in this way and I'm not interested in stars to you can have five...(what worth are they anyway?)

Another may read this and find a deep message, a stellar experience, I do not deny that. I am merely politely saying I gave it a try, applied my best understanding, and was left out in the cold.

Good luck to you.

    I have enjoyed so much of your work...and even the effort here....sometimes one just does not connect emotionally.... I am neither vein nor vain....but I don't pretend either my friend. That would serve neither of us.

I like the fact you stick to your own style when it comes to writing. I think you make good word plays on the repetition in your poetry and it makes you read it slower and you see it differently that way. I definitely think you have your own way of seeing things and it definitely works well.

it is an interesting read and attractive in form. but honestly, after a dozen lines
or so, it's just saying the same couple of words over and over. it loses any meaning in redundancy.

I really like the picture select which complimented the poem that is very well written with lots of imagery and emotions. The reader enjoyed reading this poem.
