I like your Tanks poem - Excellent picture presentation -poem flows well and gives a clear picture of the theme - truth prevails, poets do seem to find that tragedy is the most human condition, and seem to gravitate towards it with their words -bleeding melancholic notions about the "souls dark night"- good line! Good Job AP

Comment from Mike Stevens
Another fine poem, Gypsy----and it helps to talk out you troubles on paper....the trick is to immerse yourself in them while writing, but to wrench your mind back from that dark place

I do feel poets pour themselves into their work much more than prose writers. Prose writers do offer a piece of themselves in all they write, but poets place themselves on a limb every time. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from lyenochka
That's the comfort poets and writers have. They have the ability of "bleeding melancholic notions" onto pages of paper or words on a screen to find comfort in the "soul's dark night."

Yes, I like poetry more than prose because I can create a mental picture and add emotion. That's why I love Japanese poetry.
Thank you, big sister. I love you. ❤️

This is often what poet's do as we identify grief and sorrow and others feel those words that touch their hearts; we derive some comfort when we are in the company of others who feel the same way, much enjoyed,
