Description
maybe it's like this:staring at a snow globe in summer
smudged fingerprints on the outer
glass; you can't see anything
but the people who touched it before you
and it's just an old sliver of life
under the fog, a fresh fall always drifting in

I love what this communicates just through the image. There's no confusion, or straining to get there either, but it still hits you like sudden fresh air. You have such a knack for that with your writing, I look up to it, and look forward to your posts.

Well, that makes me smile as well! Thank you. And no worries. Sometimes I just have to express what demands to be expressed.

your poetry feels the exact way i always love for poetry to feel.
it's kind of like lying among a bed of crumpled feathers in a huge, empty warehouse, lit by moonlight through broken windows, and a snow of dust motes.
it is both sad and comforting. peaceful and entirely too silent.

thank you, that means a lot to me
I find it rewarding that this poem elicited two people to try to describe things that they like about my writing style because for me this poem was partly about the way that I look at the world through poetry

This requires some introspection, Nathan,
but I think [I think] I ken your intent.
