Naked

Beautifully written and expressed the allegories blend seamless, a fine start to your poetry I look forward to more. Adding this to my list of poems Kexby

Thank you.  I'm honored.  

The beautifullest god awful honesty Ive ever read,

fucking cheers!!

Love the enthusiasm!  Thanks for the nod.  

I adore this poem. It's really poignant and reflective in a conversational, colloquial way, using a chatty tone, profanity, and slang to create a real dramatic urgency in the lines, so what we're reading is an impassioned appeal to the human spirit. It reminds me of poems like "Dinosauria, we" by Charles Bukowski, which present a panorama and a dissection of the human condition as perceived by the author, although "Naked" is very much within your own distinct voice. Even though the narrative deals largely in abstract metaphor, it has a sharp, distinctive, cupboard-under-the-stairs setting, and a narrative voice rooted firmly in the present, the now, as opposed to an omniscient first person narrator outside time and space.

Thank you very much for the read, this was lovely.

And thank you for the analysis.  It's appreciated more than you know, like meat for a starving soul.  Where I live almost no one has even heard of Bukowski, let alone read him.  Poetry and literature are not a "thing" here (sadly). For over twenty years the majority of my feedback has been blank stares or outright confusion.  Which is why I'm here, totally overwhelmed by the support and grinning like a fool.  

Sad fact that the battle to maintain appearance as we age can never be won.
Classy write that makes me wonder how versatile you are.

Thank you.  I wonder about versatility myself. Quite a bit actually.  Whatever work I produce is always dictated by my muse who, as it happens, is a moody creature dragging my pen all over the place.
