Dedicated? Nah!

Waiting for the Flyers (Dreamtime)

My Kangaroo dream returned. Sitting on my rock a flyer came over and took my hand. She seemed to be asking me to go with her. She held me very tight...

Really good work, Luigi

Posted on Sat, 04 Jul 2015

you captured the atmosphere of a hot and sticky night and intermingled it with the emotions of a man wounded by life. In fact you manage so summarise the human condition with these three brief peeks into our society.

Like Bee, I feel it...

Nice one Bee (pun sorry)

I like the idea of putting scientific discussions into a poem. Would have made my school lessons interesting.

If it's true, one of the most sensible things (perhaps the only one) Adolf Hitler is supposed to have said was something like,...

This really touched me,

I spend a lot of time in Mumbai fifteen or so years ago. This really screams Mumbai life. I know the places you mentioned and had similar experiences on its streets. A place of such extremes of wealth and poverty and yet curiously welcoming to...

You are very brave

to share this with people. It was something I found very hard to do.

You label this as autobiography . . .

Posted on Mon, 18 May 2015

I hope it's not so, but I don't think you would post such a thing if it wasn't. I was with you from the first line. You have detailed so well the confusion: guilt: fear that comes in spades after such a visit. Reading this, I felt it now almost...

As I mentioned before, this is a terrific piece regardless of form. Write it down anyway you want and it will be still be great.

Well done on this well deserved poem of the month
