Poetry / Negligent 23

Wow.  That was great.  I really love the images and sensory details.  This poem paints a vivid picture, I hope for your sake that it isn’t based on real life.  You have a great writing style, better than many that I’ve read.

The most mature expression of love and loss i’ve read from you to date. You’ve cultivated a powerful command of image and action that gives your poetry force and depth. The disturbing presense of the insane unsettles whatever stable and hopeful perspective the reader brings to the work. I love the simple and sublime expression of absolute pain you so easily invoke, “Staring at you I want to scream”. I feel as though I know exactly what you mean at a level beyond words. Masterful. I miss this terribly.

Your words are very powerful – they sink deeply into me. I feel your pain as was it my own. I have read your Bio as well and even your Bio gives the impression of a great artistic talent. I want to know everything about you and what you do. If I can. Do you have another website?

This is the type of poem is the style I love to read most. It dips deep into the pain that a person must carry inside and fight through every day. It gripped me right from the first to last line… Each line was powerful enough to be a poem all to itself… Awesome read, I loved it… And thank you for the kind words on my work you reviewed… nomadinblack@aol.com
