| Posted by Michael Smith on 01/12/10 at 05:28 AM Definitely, one of the best, if not the best, acrostic poem, I've ever seen. If I were capable of envy, I might just envy you for your talent, Vince. |
| Posted by Therese Elaine on 01/12/10 at 05:52 PM This is gut-wrenching for me...simply brilliant...but then, I'm used to that from you! |
| Posted by Charlie Morgan on 01/13/10 at 03:02 AM ...vince, i'm concerned that ole' Michael doen't know envy...my gosh it's my bed mate...i am as astounded as others on this ditty. a slam-dunk in polars...you squeeze the tiniest[but loudest!] meaning out of each line. |
| Posted by Charlie Morgan on 01/13/10 at 03:03 AM ...i am playing with my envy as i type. |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 01/15/10 at 01:32 AM I enjoyed the extra touch of color, the immediate bite of teeth, and the ledge you leave me on. Thank you. |
| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 01/15/10 at 05:31 PM Your poetry has teeth. How do you stand yourself? ;) |

| Posted by Frankie Sanchez on 01/15/10 at 10:18 PM everything about this piece is stunningly clever, from the title on, nicely done. |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 01/16/10 at 04:14 PM Clever and an outstanding use of wordplay to convey an emotion! |
| Posted by Laura Doom on 01/16/10 at 06:18 PM Though it's aesthetically pleasing, I'd like to have read this without the acrostic signature in blood; then I'd have felt really dumb for not having noticed the form :> Anyway, I do like the contrast between presentation/colour and the poetry, written with a minimalist approach; not over-modified or embellished. Oxygen and odium -- I can't imagine a more compelling collaboration...
Thanks for this thing. |
