doesn t make any sense

senseless

and it s nice

to be in hell again

and to have chasen

all the angels

away

with poems in their pockets

like keys to some far off

fairy land

and how to know.

which words are the right ones

out of all the words

there are.

doesn t seem

to even make

any sense

like the falling leaves

and waking from dreams

to find

youre still alone

in hell

just waiting for another

dream

a striking sequencing format to the poem that draws the reader in line by line~beautifully drawn metaphors through sadness and disappointment~
yup~ unfortunately this happens more than not~


the beginning of your poem is absolute electricity

and it s nice
to be in hell again


and to have chasen
all the angels
away


with poems in their pockets

pure visual art that seeps deep into the subconscious~ excellent poetic ~

. hallelujah! ... you made it ... the best part about dreams is that they're waiting for you to give them life and make them real ... nah! ... the best part is that they never complain ...

the poems in the angels' pockets keep their lonely souls flying, i think. it's in dreams that possibilities are born - and they're the way out - they always are. angels are never too far away - they always return.

you write good poems..i didn't know they were still doing that in hell...guess i'll just say, hell of a poem

leaves are almost a magical idea in your poems, I've noticed them several times.

And angels with those poems in their pockets, and sometimes maybe their purses, what a large image in this poem. I can almost imagine those shining seraphim with ink smudges on their snowy wings . . .
