Wow! A four? A wonderful free flowing journey. So original and so very you. Yes, you have clearly used "orange" in a rhyme. Let the debate begin. Hahaha. The essence of expression is individuality and no one trumps you there. Excellent!! NG

In other words, poetry is an inexplicable force that burns within till you put pen to paper. Then, it is released. It is also indefinable. Great choice of words to express your thoughts and good luck in the contest. Faye

I must say it is different. Lots of alliteration,
inner intuitive instinct invokes inward introspection,
instruct ignorance
tense, trembling, terribly taut;
a big word...ariafactification, LOL
Good Job Michael. Good luck. Nancy

ariafactification? I do realize that this is very personal, in that it's meant to represent what poetry means to you, and who can really judge that? This isn't one of my favorites, though, even if it is written by you. It doesn't seem to flow lyrically, for me, and the alliteration, especially the repetitive i's, seems forced. For me, it doesn't read well aloud, either. I have seen poems of yours where you used alliteration, rhyme, and unusual format in a breathtaking form - but for me, this just isn't one of them. Sorry. I guess you just can't love them all.

I like that I have an opportunity to read the works of a good poetry. Your poetry is so original void of any particular poetic style yet an expression of your most highest thought put to words on paper. I like learning what poetry means to your personal self.

Mikey you have written a very good poem of what poetry means to you. Poetry allows us to be free, dream and use our imagination anywhere it takes us. Good luck.

I love the poem. I have loved the worlds you have created with your words. I can see orange clover. I like it. It may be real and it may be not, you make it real for your readers. Great work.

Well done good friend. More and more understood where you were coming from as we have come to know you better. I see some connections with this poem and your book about Yosemite you have just completed. Am I fair in my estimations?

You sound like Gog Mikey, LOL! No, I believe you are the new intimidator, they squirm like maggots when they see your name, Mikey. Once they realize you may be in a contest they jump ship, walking the gang plank. I believe novelists are throwing in the towel. There is definitely creativity here. i give you big points for that. I still got a fistful of stars. Six stars won't hurt me out of the Milky Way. I am God. LOL1

    Glad you liked this one. This is what I would write if I wrote exactly what I felt like writing. Hahaha. We'll see what the contest people think. It's a site contest, so free to enter and everyone is going to be in it. I got a third one time. Crazy competition! All the big guns. Still haven't figured out my next book. Check your e-mail. mikey

    I checked her. Lots of big guns, hum? Battleships are steel and steel sinks, remember the 'Titanic.'
