Nexus To Artistry Poem by Alice Cuenca

Nexus To Artistry

Rating: 5.0


Amidst the noise, i hear you!
i retraced my steps...
beguiled but still
grateful for the unsought
words tattered by storm
that turned into dust...
a stilled-heart
captured by poetry
acclimatized, confined
within...
the limits of artistry,
the illusory of the myth
but beyond a jailed-thought,
is compassion
not overridden by the
irrationality
of the flesh
my winged-spirit
fluttering...
to the immeasurable
limitless...

The writing is a too vague for the average reader. This makes any evaluation difficult because anything this open to interpretation cannot be judged fairly. The absolute purpose is unknown. Therefore, the artistry is also. GW62

I like the fresh air of abstraction of your poem. It is very well penned and pleasant reading.

It is the goal of the artist to 'penetrate' the energy of the universe, either simply or more complex...this poem flies...nice imagery and wording...Coach

Wow Candice, i've never read your stuff before. I disagree with greenwolfe's comments...poetry is not always about what is right in front of you, its about delving deep to find something. Other times it can even just be about the way words flow together or sound and mean nothing at all. I think its up to every writer to decide what they want to write about, and the main point should be to illicit feeling. This did from me. I thought it was excellent! 10/10
