there are many gods my friend , as j. campbell stated there are many faces of god, as he called them the masks of eternity , its a feeling and most people have to put a face to it , the unknown the real universe unfolds to all people no matter their faith don't be afraid to live and look around you you are the god u seek .... peace young padawon  many blessings ~~Jwolf In his mantle gray he walked one day across a shining floor and with crystal key in secrecy he opened an ivory door -J.R.R.

I don't see this as a poem. It seems to be a personal prayer. It does not use figurative language or original symbols. It does not express new connections found in a poet's perspective. Although I do not share your theistic sentiments, I do respect poetic expression of such sentiments as found in the works of Bliss Carman, Leonard Cohen, William Wordsworth, and William Blake. I don't mean to offend, but this seems more like preaching or prayer than poetry. Regards, shirtless MORE POEMS, PHOTOPOEMS, AND AUDIO VERSIONS AT http://anthonyarmstrong.multiply.com |

shirtless, to be fair, Hebrew poetry was often like this. Ever read the Psalms? They are not known for their subtlety. And yet ... they were rich in imagery and metaphor also. So I kind of agree with you, and yet think that you should go easy on criticism here. Poetry typically changes over the years, with practice, and new thoughts. By the way, put your shirt on. Oh, and I loved the "Jesus comes home from Kindergarten" poem on your website. Stephen. |
