Poetics and Poetry Discussion

(This massage was posted as a reply to that message)

you say 'Now, there is another list I would like to provide you, of phrases used here that are simply meaningless. A scented shroud smelling of hyacinths. A knock did roar. Fish-like. Jelly-like. Snake-like. Cow-like. Onyx “glowed.” Eyes cow-like burned me. Black as bees. Waxen hued. Breasts that are “fish-belly white.” (That one presents a most peculiar visual, I must say.)

you call yourself a poet you cant even see the image these phrases conjure up let alone the import of it all those phrases are completely meaning full as an image of powerful surrealism
