Insomnia The true word of sadness is a lonely streak of water falling out of a tap. On a metal pot. An insomniac moon stares through an incredible window. Watching people with its pale-ice disconnection, is a habit grown. A night bird flows over the face. A collage of sounds. Search the source and find the soul. Open the net, Server is down. Face the reality again. This is you alright, ten fingers, one of the nails is cracked. Cracked is the glass on the door of the delusion-world of sleep. Sadness profound, profound sadness … clever talks delay friendship! |

Not only do I love your poetry - I need it - every single word, syllable, effect, image, concept of it. You are a master of the English language - it is putty in your hands - it does your bidding with grace, knowing not to fear you, for you are a sculptor and not a manipulator - and your brilliant word sculptures stand high and catch the light. - Owl |

Do you know that the yearning souls' favorite meeting place is the moon? Your words convey deep deep longing. Thanks to insomnia you explore the wide expansion of your soul ... In the end the lonely streak of water becomes the constant beautiful symbol of existence ... You always touch the heart, dear Ku! Love and hugs. Margherita  "Love is the One who masters all things; |

My goodness, the still of the night never read so well!! You certainly conveyed the darkness and those seemingly never ending hours, sadly. Bravo, poddarku~ |

"An insomniac moon stares through an incredible window. Watching people with its pale-ice disconnection, is a habit grown." Absolutely lovely... love that stanza... This is one of those nights {mornings?}for me... I haven't slept for nearly 35 hours now. You've written this beautifully. I could never describe it so well as you have. I will put this into my library to read over and over  |

A thought just struck me - I was just wondering - for those of you who suffer from insomnia - have you tried TRYING to stay awake - intead of trying to sleep? - Owl |
