This poem has some excellent flowing rhythm in its thoughts and phrases. Your message was written in a very good poetic vogue as well. I liked everything about this piece of poetic art. It was just a delight to have read and written a review for... John

Excellent poem. Very mysterious. It sounds as if some kind of crime was committed that clues were washed away from. Only the poet know the hidden answer. H-mmm Very mysterious indeed.Good work

Warm weclome to FS. you obviously have a keen sense of the music of words as evidenced in your excellent melodic and rhythmic flow and use of well timed internal rhymes. Villanelles are very complex forms and as far as I can tell you've written a good one. This sounds AWESOME read aloud.

i did not notice any spags.

The artwork enhances the tone and tenor of your strange theme.

Swift pace and intensity suits the theme.
Is this based on your work in the psychiatric hospital?


Impressive.

Warmly, rd

This is scary and in a good way! It reads really well aloud and the rhyme works in the context of the poem. I think it is about a killer hidding his identity, am I right?

    Whenever I read poetry I read it aloud to see how the words sound. I don't know much about poetry but if the words flow and have a "delicious" taste...then I think it is good.

The question is 'real or imagined?', the answer is not clear, my friend. Well structured poem, with great rhythm and unusual, but effective, rhyme scheme.
I enjoyed the deep and thought provoking scenarios you presented.
Warmest regards, Marijke

Hi Keimo, this is a poem with hidden depths. There is a big emphasis on wether or not what is portrayed is real or a dream and that reality in the world of a sane man is more aceptable than the imagination of another. There seems to be an underlying evil, a sin committed and the culprit not found out but finding it hard to live with the guilt. I think you have captured an air if uncertainty very well and this encourages the reader to want more. I have enjoyed reading your work.It has no final conclusion.

Scary; looks more real and emphatic than imaginary. When I read your poem with fused artwork, I stopped to consider--"What if it is real?" And, then realized the unique and sole are more real than fantasy and it made me to shiver.

I liked the piece...
Powerful imagery...
ma favorite bits:
"Reality's paces tie imagination's laces.
Mother's tears surround as they fall down.
Twisted faces in hiding places

....

Now I'm not in God's good graces.
Fear overwhelms my heart all 'round.
Twisted faces in hiding places.
....
Rain poured down and washed away all traces"
Good one!

Well done!
Keep it up!
God bless u!

Love and Regards,
Sid

I am not one to read and understand deep meaningful poetry, but here goes... something dreadful happened in ones childhood that stays with them there entire life. The rains wash away traces of evidence/feelings but never fully? My simple way of explaining my understanding. Am I close? I thought it was written well, the rhyme was not forced and it read smoothly to me.
Very well done,
John
