Feeling confident,
I assert that art
has no meaning
but that its brushstrokes
were once not there.

I like the short imagist touch. Nice insight. I like how loose it feels, very direct in that way.

You truly have a way with words. This poem is great.
-
always,what i find myself to say at your terse poems is "Yes." and nothing else parce que it is so good and absolutely perfect,and it is not complicated, and neither will this comment be.
ps
somnus, i must catch back up on your poetry
( fuck, i've not been here in so long ) -
A thinker poem. Short and direct. With a nice and steady use of language...The only thing that I'd fix a little is the use of the two " ing " words. Feeling and meaning...Just too much of the same sounds in such a short space is never good. At least not in my opinion it isn't. I did enjoy this very much. A simple snip of one of those would take the problem away...Maybe even shortening it.
Example:
" Confident
I assert that art
has no meaning
but that its brushstrokes
were once not there. "
- At least that's one way of looking at it. But nonetheless It feels better to me without one or a shortened version of one.
Glad I stopped in.
Hope you are doing alright ,
James
