Your skein of geese is a wonderful poem.
Bird-calligraphy . . . I love the idea, and what you have done with it.

Your explanation, too, is absolutely fascinating.

-- Jane Røken


I like this idea, too. And your poem reminds me of the collection of concrete poetry by a French poet (sorry, I forgot his name)

Upon second reading, I think “yet” would be better than “and” in S1L4.


Yes, I concur!

I like this idea of a "portable home" explored in your poem.

Below is the reply from the moderator for Wild Poetry Forum:

"My favorite was the fifth, Chen-ou. You really got to something most unusual there. I've read about divorce many times, but the mouth opening, closing and salivating were not things I'd seen before. And the image is one with much impact. "


Yes, I concur! I love and disgust this imagery of a man who salivates when talking/ complaining.

May I ask who he is?

What she said is the mirroered reflection of what he said.


Furthermore, the poem challenges the reader to think why the same utterance can have completely different meanings when spoken by people of opposite sexes.

IV

distressed
in the wake of a dream --
I hear
time passing
in the sound of snow


V

buried earth
a silver carpet --
maples and I
gaze at the barrenness
we see in each other




The lines marked above are my favorite ones.

Here is my "sketches of this chilling winter:"

Thoughts on a wintry morning


I

Snowflakes
falling from the sky
from time to time
seem to dance
out of my sight


II

Bush fled
before the onslaught of winter
Obama must shovel
the sidewalks
of Wall Street

Its title implies this poem centers on the politics of self: gender, image. and power.


Brilliantly put.

What she said is a reflection of what he said.

The word, wordless, has multiple meanings in my poem, none of which is worthless.


In my view, it functions as a reminder of "reading between the lines."

[quote="ericcoliu"]

川生 写到:
Poetic Plagiarism (Haiku)


Poets contemplate the frog --
images, metaphors, and allusions
are stolen in inspiration.

IMHO, this is a bad word choice.

“If a haiku is a good one, it doesn’t matter if the subject has been used before. The writing of variations on certain subjects in haiku, sometimes using the same or similar phrases (or even changing a few words of a previous haiku), is one of the most interesting challenge the genre offers a poet and can result in refreshingly different ways of “seeing anew” for the reader. This is an aspect of traditional Japanese haiku which is hard for many Westerns, with their ideas of uniqueness and Romantic individualism, to accept. But some of the most original voices in haiku do not hesitate to dare seeming derivative if they see a way of reworking an “old” image.”

-- The opening paragraph of ‘A Note on the Selection and Layout of the Poems’ to The Haiku Anthology edited by Cor van den Heuvel



A piece of playful writing got a lengthy yet "thoughtful" response from a "serious" writer.

How about "reworked?"

This is an excellent example to explain that there is something unexplainable about existential angst, no matter how much schooling one gets.


Yes, knowledge cannot resolve existential angst. As Becker (1973) points out:

The knowledge of death is reflective and conceptual, and animals are spared it ... But to live a whole lifetime with the fate of death haunting one's dreams and even the most sunfilled days—that's something else ...everything a man does in his symbolic world is an attempt to deny and overcome his grotesque.


Yes, born towards dying!

The Chicken and Egg Question was anthologized in Summer Tapestry, which was published this month.

This is the first time my short story appears in book form.


Congratulations on the publication of your short story, which engages and stirs the reader's emotions and imagination.

Thank all of you for your insightful comments.

Special thanks to Lake for the helpful suggestion and to ericcoliu for his poetic response. I've revised my haiku accordingly.

I like the entries with Mary and Sarah that show the narrator in a more interesting way and that add a emotional depth to the story.
