Enemy
Amongst us
No bow and
No arrow
Deadlier
Mightier
Than damn sword
The pen is
His weapon
Of first choice
He strikes heart
Buries soul
We have all experienced this inimical write at some time or other. Thank You.great write. True fact.
Poet Menon, thank you so much for your very positive comments. Love your choice of the word 'inimical'.
If one does not like a writers style - do not read it. If there are suggestions on improving a poem do not degrade the writer. Yet, there are some people who derive pleasure in hurting or demeaning others. Thanks for posting this piece. A 10.
What goes around, comes around. It's so much more productive, and energetic, to put out positive feedback. Thank you, Carl for your positive suggestions.
Oh my God! I am startled to find this poem entitled, 'Veiled Writer'.....I absolutely agree with the comments of below esteemed poets that none even a fresher should be defamed/tamed.....Thanks a lot for bring this fact to the limelight!
Good for you, Richard, to defend in strong emphatic words the integrity of poets who have been - what is the word: traduced, belittled, marginalized, humiliated - by fellow poets (!) What a betrayal. Your closing two lines - He strikes heart / Buries soul - is the consequence of such an attack on a fellow poet's SACRED IMAGINATION.
Many poets have died fighting for their Sacred Imagination. Daniel, I love your choice of these two words.
