All Comments on 'Love Poem I'

childhood friends : your poems are always a pleasure to read & the emotion here is well encapsulated , captured & presented with such sympathy'n finesse !! left speechless with admiration : high 5-ed !!

for the mind, eye, and ear

how you interweave historical/musical nuances always gives rise to admiration from this quarter, but - above all else - you encapsulate something real about humanity in your writes and this is no exception. again, for me, this one is all about holding up the contrasts; they act as a foil, each for the other - love v hate/light v darkness.

i especially like how you have your jew/mick/wop brought together by the italian (i read roman catholic) ice... i even wondered if it had tenuous roots with the notion of 'an english, an irish and a scots man walked into a bar...'

and it took me back. Really enjoyed this
