This is an excellent poem describing writers. You've painted a beautiful picture through your superb word choices to the reader the skills that the writer has and everything about the writer. I really like the way you put this together and how it flows so well throughout. I like this because I think that you've captured what a true writer is. This was brilliantly wrote Nassus. Well done.

An excellent free verse on writers. What more can be written of them! Weavers,sculptors,warriors......what not! They are creators and illustrators too.

Excellent.
I really enjoyed the opportunity to read a concise, accurate analysis, of words, communications, and about writers, readers, history, and language.

You have shown the modern day method to cut the "Gordian Knot," buy use of language to circumvent, and over ride the "Politicians'," word choices and "pretzel logic."
Thanks teacher, I feel better.

The complexity of mere subjects that cannot be expounded on so easily and yet, are drawn into the scope and fields of ink.

Nice write.

Wow! simply great. This is one of the best poems I have ever read on fanstory. I love the theme and the wonderful adjectives used for the writers, especially 'magic weavers' and ' precise sculptors'. Great creativity. Definitely you fit into your description of writers.

Good use of parallel structure in the first and second line of each stanza. Wonderful concrete metaphors that the reader and writer can relate to. My favorites are:
writers are creative pausers
writers are expert lens framers
outsiders looking in with an alien tongue
tasked to interpret you and me.

I like the way you have described the many facets of writers. Each one is true & well developed. You give readers a complete package. Then in the end it is the task of reader to make sense of the words. 'good job & thanks for sharing. Jan

I think this writing is special. I agree to the first line of the poem. You words give a great twist to the poem. It's a nice free verse.
