SweetOblivionabout 12 years agoI rather like this reflection and thinking through the ideas that underpin it. S.O.
Ciel_Noirabout 12 years agoAuthorIt's so encouraging to hear from someone who understands my poetry... most people find it to be much too oblique. I very much like 'Briseis', by the way; I shall be leaving a comment =)
Kobaabout 12 years agoThe first time I read this I got nothing out of it and passed right over it. But sometimes I go back and give poems another shot as it can be my inability to see that prevents me from getting them. I am glad I reread this one! I have now read it many times and I think it is brilliant! The rhymes, the flow, the alliteration, the compactness, and the subtleties of meaning add up to a great poem! Post more! A 5!
