No problem pandonov I needed it clarified too. They're deceptive aren't they, seemingly short and simple but difficult to write

Thanks Kahlil you're always kind and supportive, much appreciated

Yes, difficult Raph...yet, when done with
just the right touch....so powerful...

Well expressed, I must say.

Ahh, melancholy... isn't it something beautiful?  I've tried explaining to my going muse that what I find beautiful in her is her ability to concretize the whole of human emotion in a single frown, and but two tearful eyes.  Then she asked me what the hell I was talking about.  I think you've done a much better job...

Great work, Raph.  I'm glad that you're working on making your poetry more "poetry" these days.  I once was not a fan of you, but I am beginning to be.

You know, Raph, if I were to ever request someone to take a photo of me when I'm writing, I would ask that it be you.  I think you would find just the right shot of me when I disappear into my words...

I think you have that insight...
