Mother Poetry A vamp with one too many syllables choked out bulging eyeballs blind to the implication of art in words free for the thinking men lured by women undressed from emotions left staring at children hungry with bloated stomachs crying for a mother’s love…. and she has none. Robert |

I've not been reading your work long, but to my mind, ya never LOST it! This one is powerful in its imagery, maintaining that sense of discomfiture that your work often houses...that "edge." Good writing, Robert. ~ Claire |

Robert, This is the first piece of your work I have read, I am looking forward to more. It is very tightly woven which makes it especially easy to digest. Thanks. David2 |

Oh I love this style of poem..one where the immediate meaning is sometimes unclear and it requires re-reading several times ...it's like you slowly peel back the layers exposing the poems core....food for the mind Just wish I could write this stuff..but i've tried and I can't seem to make it work  Ahh well..I'll just have to content myself with my sweet sappy stuff and read yours to satisfy that niggle!
