Has one seen
What was once
Subtle flamboyant
Become almost tradition?
How can one fail to praise
The body and practice
Permanence and continuity
of literary Art Bar?
Laboring poets
Enter their birthplace of thoughts
Convey emotions felt
Sudden vision
Actions seen or heard
Reach out , blend
In their local setting.
In this background haven
the enlived still grapple for
a mighty Canadian literary identity;
special skillful innovative language
motivates
essential energy
for dramatic change and movement.
In a conflicting culture
the Art Bar favors
verbal revelation
inspiration callings
new and old challenges
future horizons
different directions.
Please tell me what you think

I loved the oxymoron placed in line 3, 'subtle flamboyant', it was an interesting pairing indeed. There was a ton of literary tools employed here, from alliteration which was very well done, "art bar" not familier but I assume allusion to some event or place, consequently it also has some great assonance. All and all, great piece with an interesting them applied. Very well done.
