Your comments are so incisive, intelligent, humble and humbling. Thank you. "Reality not matching art". Precisely. It's enough to make me feel like a failure. It does. Daily.

I love this Alan - for what it says as much as how it is crafted. It reminds me very much of a poem I wrote once, though it is much better expressed. Mine was more along the lines of actions speaking more than words but yours is also touched with that idea of reality not matching art - dreams not coming to pass.
Lovely poetry. x

A little gem. The structure and flow of this sonnet are excellent. Some lovely lines here too.
"For words can dance and sing and paint the sky;
they sculpt the night and heighten solar flares."
Clever ending couplet too.

Classy stuff, Alan.
