Your poetry is so insightful Anya. I have felt this, that sense of something broken that can't be labelled. Beautiful.

Can't understand it Elle
Why no-one has responded
To tell you you write well
It's obvious to me
You're asking for feedback
Does no-one want to give it?
Why feedback do you lack?
Like you I want to know
On poems how did I go?
For as we both agree
Feedback is how we grow

Hi Becky, this works great as a performance poem and you give it a nice flowing delivery that makes it come alive. It always amazes me how some people can remember all the words of a poem without looking. Nice one.

Thank you Anya!!!
Thank you Rose, drifting would work too but I guess I went for flying in juxtaposition with the birds requiem who I viewed singing while resting on a branch...
Wow Ray!!! I would have never recognised you by your profile photo!!! Thank you!!! It was a great evening of fantastic poetry by a group of very talented poets!!! Very inspiring!!!

Hello Becky and congratulations!!
I loved this phrase in particular: "I was advised not to euphemize", I, at first, misread it as "euthanize"! There's a whole school of Psychology built upon the interpretation of malapropisms and slips of the tongue! I, like you, too, splatter rhyme all over my work and cling-clang along to iambic pentameter. Anyroadup, very well done Becky.

So many homeless on our streets,
Hiding their bodies under dirty sheets.
Pleading for spare change in desperation,
Change landing in their costa cups,gratification.

But what entertained
was something much dafter

Anya,
This poem has an almost mysterious quality to it in that one knows yet does not know what is broken or lost. Yet it has resulted in some kind of transformation leaving him bereft. It has got me thinking. Thank you for this

Comment is about Overweight (blog)
Original item by Trevor Alexander
This I like! Superior imaginative observations about the
finality of existence, our fears and our resistance to its
intrusion into our minds.
I'm reminded of the opening lines of a favourite poem from
the past:
Lady Life's a piece in bloom
Death goes dogging everywhere;
She's the tenant of the room,
He's the ruffian on the stair.

Consistent and constantly faithful in its depiction of the
various facets of a distressing condition. On a technical
side, I would prefer an alternative to the double use of
the word "take" in verse nine...but just maybe it fits with
the following line about being "repetitive"?

Hi Ray,
I sense you exploring cemeteries, wagon yards and disused stations again.
I did some digging around on Defford, found some great pictures and stories.
It is true I suppose that we are all existing beyond what was someone elses vanishing point, slowly reaching toward our own.
I note you write "here stands" which sets me wondering. ?

Successful in evoking a time and place that is known to
many of us with origins in or a familiarity with the countryside. I can almost feel the rain dripping from
overhanging branches and feel the mud squelching
beneath my feet.
In my mind, I am once again
Meandering down a "memory lane".
