Thank you very much, gm, on your thoughtful comment on When Once a Scribbler...

I considered deleting the "now" in the last line based on your comment during the challenge; for whatever reason, the line sounds better to me as it is.

The "one thousand swords" - I deliberately wanted to leave it vague, numberless, though thousand is already a large number. This one definitely fits into the category of idiosyncrasies.

 

[legerdemer]

Thank you, Ashesh and AH

I am glad you both liked When Once a Scribbler enough to give it your "favorite" nod - much appreciated.

Thanks Mer for your comments on And if not love. I like your space idea. Affairs always have their awkward moments and I was trying ti capture a bit of that. Adam Cohen's song When We Go Home captures it beautifully.

Thanks to Angeline, Todski, and GreenMountaineer for their comments on Doodle Dandy- Walker.

Now Todski clearly 'got it,' but I'm not sure about Angeline and GMT. But prolly it's my failure because Todski had to use google to 'get it'.

You got me there, ishtat. I was unfamiliar with the syndrome. With the cadence my mind's ear heard and the combination of "doodle" and "dandy," I made a Yankee leap of abstraction.

I did the same, but there were trigger phrases that snapped the singsonging rhythm that forced me to Google. Ishtat is in my opinion an exceptional poet that often has layers to his work, so I made a leap of google. I think the contrast makes it a chilling piece, the innocence of youth package in the singsong rhythm of Yankee doodle, and the loss of that youth in stark reality, and there was nothing that could have been done.

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

Thank you, GM, for your kind words for this poem and for so faithfully reading the daily additions (editions?)

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

Again, my heart felt thanks to GM for reading and commenting on this , one of my new additions.....I'm feeling a bit lonely over there.

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

Thank you to Ange, Ashesh and AMovebleBeast for comments, encouragement and their attention to poetry.

 

[GuiltyPleasure]
