cynthia - lovely comments thank you. not sure about narcissism, but i definitely have the confidence now to write exactly what i desire, knowing it will come out better than if i tried to pander to positivity and praise. if that makes sense!

Thanks Ray. How's that? (I can't remember if each stop (Period) was like a "Step" taken originally. Today I agree with you.

Original item by Stockport WoL

I loved the kitchen imagery - the table, the curtains, and so on - as Adam says each reading brings something new. Not the least because of the ambiguity of the key line: "My mother leaned against dreams" - is she supported by them or is she working against them? I wonder!

A haunting by the isolation within crowds - the imposition of thoughts on vast tracts unknowable Tom. (Or I am trying to write a poem as a comment?) You do manage to transport US and that's the main thing. Any news re your book yet?

A very nice idea this 220 A. You are kept in a state of suspension while ascending. With respect I preferred not to have the full stops- although on second thoughts just lose the ones after Runs and Space, so as to get a sort of stop - go sense. Or play with it - or totally ignore me whatever. Just an idea !

HI Jennifer. Thank you - Me in 1964. We can all dream! Glad you enjoyed this vignette. Sometimes I spend more time on the shorter ones (for impact) - good practise.

Yes Suki , a grim subject but its more my humour that i'm presenting. Glad you liked it.

Thanks Cynthia. History shown in sharp relief(from the dark side).

Mark, Yes how true - don't muck abaht with the powers what was !

I appreciate all your comments , a bit like cracking open a puzzle and difficult to elaborate on.

It's lovely too to get all the likes ! Col, David, 220 August and Beno.

Original item by Shaakiera Schroeder

I like the railway/station analogy of our travel through life & could imagine "the passed" crowding along platforms lit by
the old hissing gas lamps trying to make way for the
newly arrived. I found myself thinking...1st, 2nd or 3rd
class?...depending on the price paid in life's journey.

Very straight forward/thinking poetry, and your samples made me laugh, i.e. OK Google: Become an Adult.

Can't have one without the other. Solitude without peace of mind is worthless, at least as long as we trouble ourselves. Nice, simple, concise words indeed.

Comment is about IN PLACE OF SOLITUDE (blog)

Original item by MANISHA SAINI

Whether literal or taken metaphorical, this poem is a great one that takes the concept of that which is the symbol of life itself, and juxtaposes it next to simple yet effective dangers that can only be mitigated with the proper knowledge and implementation of said knowledge. I'm sure water warriors and life lovers everywhere would like this too, as it can fit multiple narratives.

Yep, that was me. Haven't used that email address in ages though. I still write - not for anything other than fun, though. Others from that course do it professionally, must be nice to have that kind of confidence.

I love the language in this poem, which is reminiscent of both Dylan Thomas and the atmosphere of Cider with Rosie. The first time I read it I did not notice how specific the repetition was. But when you do it gives you the chance to savour the lines all over again.

Your mind, its ideas and the resultant relationship of chosen metaphors, is truly awesome. And then you find the apt vocabulary to support these insights/outsights/resights. Is narcissism an essential factor? I'm honestly keen to know. Is it an essential aspect of amazing writing?

Hi Laura M,

Saskia's Ghost? Or perhaps another Laura. Are you still writing?

I can't seem to locate you even when I select your name. Send me your details via the inbox if you can message me.
