Thanks Mer - that line has stuck with me since first reading it long ago.

Neo, I'm not sure I could articulate exactly why if I tried, but I wanted to say that I love Ame.

Your 1-25

The whole lament is very well executed, you are one of the few writers that does rhyme and metre very well.

This for me is one of those instancea where steucture and rhyme uplift the poem by supporting the melancholy inherent in the whole piece.

It is a little stumbly here and there but I like that it comes out as if trying to talk through choked up emotion, as if you are really damn sad.

I think you could maybe tighten up in a few places, but that kind of writing is so far beyond my abilities that I would be of little help to you,

But hey I can admire from afar

Piscator went out with a bang, each dog getting his or her due so lovingly. Well done and congrats on surviving 30 days of musings.

Thanks tod and GP after thousands of years of co-evolution dogs sometimes know us better than we know ourselves,

The 30-30 is long but rewarding, especially when finished, inspiration mixed with desperation and afterwards trying to sort the wheat from the chaff. The final one grew from listening to a Elanor Wacthel's Writers and Company interviews with Jim Harrison, and remembering the first line of The Road Home.

It was written through emotion and very true, every bit of it. That's why I let it stand without editing .... sort of written in the rough to show how I was feeling. I didn't want to tighten up emotion if that makes sense. Thank you very much for noticing.

Oooh! Thanks for reminding me about these. Just ordered 5 different sets for me and the kiddo to play with

 

[Lyricalli]

Piscator, congratulations on finishing the 30/30! It was a good run.

I really like Seven Dog Lives a lot. I've had pets all of my life, and there are times when I better remember when something happened by recalling which critters were sharing my life at the time.

 

[legerdemer]

Piscator, my congrats as well.

I agree with Calli regarding using pets as a timeline of sorts, and with you regarding our pets' understanding of us. Now if I could only read their minds... All I get is, Food! Now! Walk! Food! Walk! Love! looped over and over.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Thank you! I'm liking that 007 run. Glad I bumped that thread.

I asked for it a couple of weeks ago, I knew there was one somewhere! The Great Todski found it and bumped it up for me

 

[Lyricalli]

Tod, the end section of your 3-5 is really powerful for me.

they know her at the hospital
by first name
the same nurses
hide their disdain
through professional masks
and cigarette smoke​

Those six lines tell a hell of a story all on their own.

Take care all, lots of luck on beautiful poetry so I have something to read when I come back. 's!
