All Comments on 'Denying'

It is not just your writing style but also your choice of subject matter and philosophy that I am enjoying in a number of your poems 5ed

I've just read some of your poetry and you are extraordinarily literate and articulate. That's usually the product of a highly intelligent and observant person who reads.

Denying is a curious poem. It's clearly about your decision to self-sacrifice about something. I have no idea what that thing is and therefore can't pass an opinion about whether it's a worthy thing to abandon. I nevertheless feel compelled to say that maybe you can have it both ways. I think that too much self-sacrifice isn't good.

So it's a poem that caused me to react. And I'm not sure why.

Cheers,
