Thank you friend, really glad you enjoyed it - and honoured if it can help with your own work in any small way :)

She is terrifying - one of the first horror films I watched and was actually horrified by! That's fair enough - we all react to different things differently, I think. It has always puzzled me why the trope

Glad to hear it has such a strong connection with you too :) I'd heard there was something like 80 verses in total which Cohen wrote for it? I didn't realise he performed different ones on different nights!

Gorgeous prose poetry, and such captivating pictures as well. your shadow is always there The melancholy that comes even with those brightest of sunny days, knowing that you are without the other. Very

Very touching prose poetry my friend - it is bittersweet, remembering those times gone by. If only we could stay still, just living in those perfect moments! This piece brought up a lot of memories for

Love love love this, it reminds me of a certain kind of poetry of biology, as practised by Michael McClure - this piece leaps off the screen at me like a literal Lion! I can feel the freedom in your words,

I still hold that Hallelujah is the best love song ever written, simply because it has informed so many different interpretations of love - religious, romantic, sexual - over the years. Although to be

Ah, no this is one of the ones I had saved up unfortunately - I'm still pretty spent on the whole poetry front. Getting feedback is always so valuable though :) At the end of the day, there's no real guarantee

Hahaha, I'll be honest, it's not your best work, though it made me smile and I do appreciate the effort :P Old books are the best - the older the better. Yours would be worth showing off I'm sure. I had

It does hold a strange sway over me - I just had to try and get my thoughts down about it ;)
