Hi Jay.
I appreciate your taking the time to review my poem, "Fragmented Stanzas." I always like to read something written by a reviewer, so I searched your portfolio for poems. (Primarily, I consider myself a poet--like to read and write poetry.) I chose this one of yours to review which is wonderful. I enjoyed the intensity and passion.
Some favorite lines:
"The flames of our passion
Swirling us to
Our willing extinction."
as well as entire last four lines.
However, I can tell by reading your story postings, even picking a random chapter, that you are an excellent author. Best, Marilyn/BeasPeas

Thank you, Marilyn, for sampling some of my poetry. Yes, I am a dyed-in-the-wool prose writer. One of my better poems is "I am a Skipper of Stones." Again, Marilyn. Thanks for showing the interest.

I think I have read that one in the past, as my memory serves me. Will check out Skipper of Stones again. Best, Marilyn/BeasPeas

This is so good on so many levels. This speaks in an imagery that shows two as one, transformation physically, emotionally and spiritually. Then you have renewal, like the phoenix, thus a rebirth or, perhaps resurrection or a reincarnate sort of subtlety, borne of reactionary properties of several realms.
You really have me thinking here, man. Maybe I am nuts, but this is cool stuff. Great work of art. This is the kind of poetry I like!

We may be battling to the end on this one, Kingsrookviii, but you were so spot on in your interpretation that I need to give you a thumbsup as well!
