You are all rich gorgeousness Brenda.. must rub loves on you, as You are
one of my very Great Ones, ladyluv! This is dripping deeply of your essence..

"a magnetism, a turn of phrase
putting their soul into art
making you crave them with your being"
~so sweetly perfect..

"I'm in love with artists  
the making of it
it is like making love"
"gentle and rough at times
all flesh and metal
though real and we feel you"
~in shiny awe upon my knees.. you spin this with power and I know we all relate!

lovin your gentle homaging pen darlins.. smooth poetry becomes you as you fill my empty void ;)
mwahs,
~d

lovely d~ in awe of you I hope you know that beautiful..

thank you most graciously from my heart for the love you've shown me and this write..

love Brenda

to make it seem effortless, that is the effort of writing poetry.

maybe poets are broken with every poem they write...

John I can always count on you for a perfect poetic response thank you..

love Crim

This too is open and honest, and a Great One in homage to the poets. Artists are passionate folks. We burn slightly faster and at higher temperatures  than normal people.

Thank you DPW for a great comment you are a pleasure and delight to read :)

love Crim

What an eloquent thought Bren..
Your line about being pieces collected on paper reminded me of Shakespeare's famous quote..

"When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

Think we see you...and many others...this way.
Those pieces a bit of our stars and we fancy them our light at times..
In the end we are just ordinary...and thats okay! We are all just human.

A divine write..
Love
Jennifer

thank you beautiful Jennifer for such a lovely Shakespeare quote and such a fantastic comment making me smile :)

love Brenda

This is a wonderful tribute to those who inspire so many of us each stanzas is well written.(a magnetism, a turn of phrase
putting their soul into art making you crave them with your being) this describes a true writer to the T.

Thanks for sharing

thank you DP for such a great response to this write..

love Crim

The great ones have the ability to both lay bare their souls and entertain, maybe produce lines that really resonate and last.  This is a gift that you have Crim, one that you share.

" so it is with us all
the great ones do it with such ease
causing me to want to taste their flesh"  

You admire them with ferocity, wanting to learn.  You can count yourself in the titular company Crim.  Could use a pound of flesh myself.  

With love and respect,
Crow.

Sir Crow I cherish your visits and thought thank you..  
 
in love with your ink..

There's the poem, I Think Continually Of Those
Who Are Truly Great, of course, by Spender. But
you approach the thought from a very different
angle. I like it a lot...

thank you Paul for the poem reference i'll look it up also for a great comment..

love Crim

"in all the fucking numbness  
of it all to fill the void
here we gather to feed that emptiness"
- another great line from you that is filled with emotion and uncomfort of existence, that flows so pure and is a delight to hear the roaring of.

thank you Lord Viddax love your visits and thoughts :)

love Crim

This is just stunning,  so beautifully crafted. I must say that in my opinion you are definitely One of the great ones.  

Love Ina

thank you most graciously lovely Ina :)

love your passionate pen..

love Brenda

Simply beautiful.

thank you kindly :)

love Crim

this feels autobiographical in nature - I find you inspiring, I find this poem inspiring - if it wasn't for you i would never have attempted to write any erotic poems and I have now written quite a few and you were my inspiration - thank you for that :-)

David I'm humbled by your comment though this truly isn't about me but poets and poetess's I admire.. I'm blushing that I've been the inspiration for your erotica thank you.. I am inspired by you to really let loose with my feelings..

love Crim

excellent Crim! i was just finishing a poem on the same subject (i dont think itll touch this one), we must've been on the same wavelength... big ups to the "Great Ones" and "Word Weavers" who swirl our minds...

thank you Dean it's great that we're on the same wavelength and I'm sure I will love your ink you are a masterful writer..
love Crim

Really enjoyed this write. Not just because of the style and ease of the read; because I feel this each time I log on to read. The anticipation of the read. Waiting for my favs to gift us with their passions on the page. You are truly
gifted, love and always fulfill the call to be great.

Much love
Keith

thank you graciously Keith I too look forward with great anticipation to read my favorites like you my friend :)
