Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 05/21/10 at 12:24 PM these incredible images that you have somehow managed to coax out of the muse, who one assumes was and is an old flame? all fall under the heading of par excellence and print themselves on eyeballs. |
Posted by Alison McKenzie on 05/21/10 at 05:33 PM You know, I read this, and...at first it feels sort of soft and gentle, until it starts to burn....WOW. Nicely executed! |
Posted by Wendy Sparling on 05/22/10 at 04:37 AM Excellent poem relating to loneliness. I'd love to see one of your art creations complimenting this piece. |
Posted by Laura Doom on 05/22/10 at 10:05 AM How sublime is this? I'm adrift in the demographics... |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 05/22/10 at 03:54 PM Eloquently stated, with a nice tinge of sadness at the end. |

Posted by A. Paige White on 05/25/10 at 07:59 PM Wow. This has to be the best map to arrive to the title's destination I've ever read. All encompassing compass... |
Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 05/26/10 at 04:01 AM I've re-read many times this week. So incredibly sad - the fingerprints saved is a brilliant image. |
Posted by Laurie Blum on 05/26/10 at 02:24 PM wow! This is an incredible piece of writing. It says so much with just a few words... and I am left wondering how it all happened. A great poem! |
Posted by Therese Elaine on 05/27/10 at 12:19 AM You have taken the very elements of loneliness and made them into something beautiful -of loss and pain you made something lovely...and you remind me so much of Theodore Sturgeon's short story, 'Saucer of Loneliness.' There aren't enough good things I could say of this piece. |
