Spectator

Spectator

A Poem by James K. Blaylock

Spectator

 

watching you with

your powerful wings;

 

makes this one

so very jealous...

 

for I'm merely,

another featherless spectator

I really love the way you write and capture such a raw energy among your words. You tell a tale so vividly that anyone that reads your words is able to see them and feel them other than just read them. They do not remain just laying upon a page they take a life of their own. It is always a pleasure to read your words.


Well Done!!!!!

I enjoyed this very much, and I love that you let the reader ponder whether the winged object of the speaker's admiration is a majestic bird or an angel...

Nice work!

James my friend, how do you do it ? You say so much with so few words. In this verse you are the one with wings and I the spectator. I envy your way with words.

Very clever since you can apply this to many different things.

Beautiful write.

another easy- to- read, powerful poem. I liked this one b/c you left room for the reader to use the imagination. Good job.

What a true gift it would be, to be able to fly. No feathers - no flying! The incredible thoughts that abound with your writing are endless. Your poem contains so much beauty in your words.

Makes me think of a metaphore- John Doe is watching his single friend party while John has to go home to his wife and kids and face responsibility. Course you probably mean something entirely different. Birds maybe?

Nice poem; short and sweet.
