Posted items are from my point of view with my understanding and assumptions. However, readers respond from their own backgrounds, and they may comprehend my intentions or not. Their impressions represent how my words struck them, but my intention may not leave the hoped for impression. Likewise, I may or may not understand your intentions for what you post. Just as you do, I read through the filter of my capacity for comprehension. As individuals we rarely experience or perceive in the same way anything offered or received, but our discussions should lead toward understanding and effective communication of our diverse perspectives and perceptions.1
Comments and Messages – I may occasionally present or defend a controversial position on art or a forum topic, but usually I just try to be supportive and truthful with folks who post their creative efforts and personal views here. My comments may be critical or casual or both. They may note the particulars of a poem or comment or just simply express my emotional or intellectual reaction to it.
Religion and Politics – I am a Christian libertarian of no affiliation. I am willing to share my personal religious, spiritual, political, social and economic views, but only with positive statements. I like to hear the views of others on these, but only if they have positive theses to present.
Sensual and Erotica – I post poems and comments on these, but with reserve. For me human sexuality should always be enriching and joyful in experience and memory. I wish it never involved guilt or disrespect, or was a source of pain or grief. My poetry and comments are based on my personal experience, but only as it is relevant to general human experience. There is no invitation for more personal discussions of sensuality with people I have never met.
Stars and Applause – Every poem on which I comment gets three applause icons. I try to award five stars to every first comment someone enters on my postings. This is to be polite and encourage folks to post their work and comments, but they have nothing to do with what I think about a poem or comment.
