WHERE CAN I FIND SUCH A LIFE?

So you are a fish?  Or did you mean to say that your loneliness is like something a fish (presumably) feels when it is deprived of water and of food (which, BTW, is desperation, not loneliness)?  

And your title is empty of meaning since it is unclear what the type of life whose location you are asking about actually is.

I wonder what kind of person he is that who asks a question, and answers it. He must be a great critic!

"I wonder what kind of person he is that who asks a question, [sic no comma needed]  and answers it. He must be a great critic!"

Ah, again the ad hominem response, as well as one that makes a false claim.  Where did I answer the question I asked of you?

Cue another ad hominem/failure to speak directly to my question.

1-I wonder what kind of person he is that who asks a question, and [who] answers it. We have two relative clauses, so we must use a comma between them.
2- ...so you are a fish?
You asked this question, and then you answered it according to the real meaning.

"1-I wonder what kind of person he is that who asks a question, and [who] answers it. We have two relative clauses, so we must use a comma between them."

Not according to Grammarly.


"2- ...so you are a fish?
You asked this question, and then you answered it according to the real meaning".

No, I did not answer it.  I asked another question to determine what the "real meaning" of your lines were -- a question which you have yet to clearly answer.

1-Baldwin says,"Not according to Grammarly."
You suppose you know something about punctuation. Do you start this phrase with a capital letter and end it with a full stop, Baldwin?
2- I think it is according to Baldwin, and not to Grammarly.
3- You asked another question to give the meaning l stated in my poem.

I did nor know
that fish deprived of oxygen
and now aghast upon the land
because they were outside their watered berth
was something that should ere be seen
as symbolizing loneliness (or rapt desire
for words of grace)
especially if this here image was intended
to be taken as an apt,  instructive simile
that made it clear just what
your loneliness was like.

For what a landed writhing fish
most wishes for
is not relief from loneliness
or any sating of its soul
by love
or the stopping of a stomach rumbling that
no fish has ever had.
The water is its goal and what it wants
is all the oxygen (not air)
that water bears.

Remember too that Peter, when
with Jesus on the shore in Galilee
did cook upon a fire the fish they caught
despite the fishes’ felt desire
when still alive
to be back in a watered mire.

BTW,  if you are using "but" with the sense of "except",  there should not be a comma after "soul"

BTW, why do you avoid answering the three questions l asked before your splendid  poem, that really makes a person disgusted with poetry.  

What three questions did you ask of me? All I see from you are assertions.  There are no sentences in your replies to me that end with a question mark or that are formed as questions.

And what is it in the piece I posted here that makes people disgusted with poetry?

Cue the avoidance by J-Z of actually answering both of **these** questions.  

I want a life
in which I’m free and able,
unconstrained,  to view
the bottom of a lake,
and take in oxygen
when I’m deprived of it,
and slake desire to kiss
an algae covered stone
for food whenever I
feel hunger in my bones.

Jesus, Jesus, grant me this!

At the end of my message above I predicted that J-Z would avoid answering the questions I asked of him ("Cue the avoidance by J-Z of actually answering both of **these** questions. ")

Was I on target, or what?

You were on target because Joseph Zenieh doesn't answer people full of grudges because they are jealous.

You think far too highly of yourself and of the quality of your submissions.  Please tell me the reason I have to be jealous of a writer whose pieces repeatedly and undeniably contain -- as yours do -- the marks of bad poetry, i.e.,

grammar gaffes

noun-verb disagreement,

forced rhyme,

solecisms,

deixis,

demonstrably false and/or question-begging statements/claims about the world, human nature,  well-springs of human action, misunderstandings and misrepresentations of texts [especially Biblical ones] that your submissions are based on,

inversions of ordinary ways of speaking,  

sacrifices of sense in order to get a rhyme,  

sacrifices of syntactically necessary article use in order to maintain a particular rhythm,

clumsy and clunky rhythm,  

misuse of and/or misunderstandings of the meanings of words that you have used within lines,

a limited vocabulary

overuse of the same words,

strange, improper,  and illegitimate use of  punctuation,

no use of concrete imagery or appeals to the senses,

little use of metaphor or simile,  

overblown claims about the way the world works,  

questionable claims about what leads to human happiness,  

and are given titles the subject of which is not the subject of your text?

Do you deny that your pieces exhibit these marks?  

I expected you to write what you have written because l am used to your writing which is full of grudges. I imagine it is quite normal for any poet who is concentrating on his poem to make such blunders. Have you forgotten the mistakes which l had found to you in your poems or criticism? But you defend yourself by showing the normal blunders which you find to other poets especially those you hate and want to damage their image IF YOU CAN. Do whatever you can, but you will not affect my trust in myself as you hopelessly wish.

"I imagine it is quite normal for any poet who is concentrating on his poem to make such blunders."

Leaving aside the question of why someone who is concentrating on writing a good poem would make such blunders, not to mention so frequently, I take it that you are admitting that your pieces constantly contain these numerous marks of poor writing (otherwise, you are saying that you are not concentrating on your submissions).  If so,  aren't you also admitting that no one would have reason to be jealous of what you write since it is indeed full of blunders?  

No time for such useless posts, Baldwin.

"No time for such useless posts, Baldwin"

Then why do you keep making them?
