Comment from Frank Malley
The poem, " Impossible dreams," elegantly uses a complex form called "Domino Rhyme." It may be a fault of mine that this form did not appear saliently to me as I read, although I did note the recurrence of rhymes within the poem. The irregular meter of the poem is a plus, as it expands the pensive sequence of the narrative intentions in the poem. Troubled and uncertain love tethered by a skeptical thoughtfulness is the central descriptive focus of this excellent poem. I suspect all writers have fascinations with particular words at particular points in their creative work; my poem, "Refrigerator Poetry" has attractive word fascination as a theme. It's in my portfolio. I see this poet's diction and design of lines as an excellent and evolving capability.
