Midicon, perhaps you don't know me well enough to know that I am often guilty of complete frankness. I say things how I see them. I am a musician, and also a writer. I don't get paid for either, but that doesn't negate those creative processes that exist with me.
I WAS NOT making fun of you. I really think this is a great work. You see it as a one-off rambling. I see it as a wonderful poem, which -- if viewed through the filter of musical cadence -- is also a very impressive work.
I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. I truly believe this is a great work, and I won't apologize for that.
You say you're not a writer. I'm sorry, my friend, but you are wrong. You are a writer. You may not embrace that function within yourself, but I hope you choose to explore your creativity. I have written song, poems, short stories since I was 12 and I'm now 66. I know what I like and I know what I'm talking about. I read more than one book at a time, and I'm a voracious reader.
I don't compliment people for no reason. I was truly touched by your poem, and I hope that you continue sharing your amazing talent with us.
