A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


your book

 

 

I read your poems

and realize I only thought

of being a poet

 

paling in comparison

is my reflection 

on the pages

As I may have said before, the "multum in parvo" phrase comes to my mind when I read your shorter works, your talents and gifts compacting a ( for me ) full train of observation, thought, reflection, analysis and expression into so few syllables!!! Always a joy to read.

Thank you for your kind words, Julian,

I read YOUR books and recognize
a great talent, a craftsman,
a master of words. a genius with metaphor

As soon as I joined this site, your name was tattoed in my mind.

Enjoy your week end it’s 900 pm Sunday here
Sort form poetry is your strength Jacob. So much said in so few words as always. But every word crafted into a complete masterpiece. Anyone who reads you will never ever doubt that you belong in the category of poets to read and note.
