out here

out here in the night

hunger in the way of 

the clear blue light.

Graceful, elegant and haunted. So many could learn to economize their words as you do, love. This is perfection. It says everything and nothing. It brings peace and causes pain. I am in love with your words, as always.

This poem leaves just enough room for personal interperation. Love it :)

very vampiric. has a romantic quality about it. nice piece.

[John Jackson (El Juero)]

Three lines of delicious, mysterious interpretation.

What I really like about this piece is the structure you have chosen. It starts with a lower case letter, but ends with a period, leading me to believe you intended to present this as a fragment, an ending. I love that idea and and absolutely tingling to think of what preceded these lines.

This is a applause that followed obviously something very grand and deserving. well done.

My interpretation: Life in the way of death. Whether I'm right or wong, I enjoyed this piece.

Okay, here's what I have to say about all of the writing I've read of yours. You're quietly telling us and your meaning is so EXQUISITE, and it takes lots and lots out of the reader's interpretation to learn about you. You are such a mystery and I love the hell out of it, like I cannot explain. You require a great deal of effort for me to feel like I know where you're coming from all of the time. There's so much behind what you write for my eyes to see, and so much more there is to come, I'm hoping. You speak to me, silently, in the distance, that's what it feels like, like you're so far away and you say something that you probably think is so small, yet all of us see it as something great. This poem was the poem I chose to write all of this on because it says, "the clear blue light". For me, that symbolizes something intricate, something far away yet something visible and worth seeing. "hunger in the way" of the blue light. Wow. You're a wonderful writer.

this gnaws at me, especially the blue light

your capacity for poetry has grown exponentially

we hunger from one end to the other...i'm thinking the opposite of hunger is death...your lines are etched in acid and sorrow
