Lol you know how to make me smile
bad moods are allowed, they help make better poetry 
-
Takes one what?!? An 'evil wench'...or a great Poet!?! hehehe 
Just pickin' atcha!!! I CAN be a wench...evil? Nah...but yes, I do get in bad moods too...(shhh!!! Don't tell!!!) hehehe
-
Well it takes one to know one heheh I like to be an "Evil wench" sometimes, depends on the mood Glad you liked it
-
Very cool!!!
'Evil wench???' YOU?!? Nah...I don't believe THAT for a second!!! I enjoyed this short piece, packed with powerful emotion...amazing how so few words can accomplish what so many cannot, isn't it? Great write, Poet!!! Wanda
-
Thank you I am glad you enjoyed I appreciate you words, many thanks

The picture leaves one to wonder, what world is this, indeed? The poem answers the question. Very interesting photo with words that invite the reader into a wold of the unknown, although,the words "art withg passion" are self-explainatory. Very thought-provoking idea here!

Thank you, yes us Evil Wenches can be a tad flambouyant at times Glad you liked it ,

Thank you, the "Netherworld" to me is a time of fantasy, ie writing, painting or listening to music, a time far removed from reality. Many thanks for your comments
-
Thank you

I would like to thank you for voicing how I feel about contests. Perhaps it is widely thought that unless the piece reaches 10 lines or more, no thought has gone into the work, Im not sure, but I do believe a lifetimes work goes into every poem, as we dredge from memory or experience to create. Many thanks for your kind words, they are appreciated

I didnt think of this as a Haiku, just a short statement with
impact, they seem to flow and achieve what I am saying. I find they can be harder than the normal free style I usually employ, but since writing is a personal thing, perhaps this is a part of me I hadnt seen before. Many thanks for your kind words, they are appreciated
-
Well whatever way it grabbed you, is fine by me I am glad you sort of like it, Thanks for your kind words, they are appreciated

Whoa...is this really from an evil wench?? lol This sublime tidbit filled with more mysteries than a tome of ancient prose? lol I loved it, hon, it had style and class and said enough in three short sentences than what can be found in a book thicker than my thigh...BOTH of them! lol I also LOVE that picture up there...talk about KICKASS! It's just perfect for this piece too cause it has that lull of mystery and things best NOT spoken about...only experienced. Very very nice.
-
hmm. Almost a Haiku. At least it's as short as one. It does describe what we do. Our words are art and our passions. Perhaps bit of a netherworld because sometimes our words are misundestood.
-
Nice picture!
-
Lol. I liked your author comments. That was cute. As for the poem, I'm always appreciative of those who can say so much in such a few amount of words. It always irritates me to read on this site, other poets say that (especially in contests where there are line requirements) you just can't express anything in less than 10 lines. I beg to differ, and this poem proves it. Wonderful writing.
-
More and more people here seem to be trying out haiku or something like it. I have yet to focus on it. I believe you have to think a bit differently to get these shorts to work for you. I haven't made the effort yet. But I'm watching you who are.
-
Splendid
whatever it is...i would say it's a very good composition, we're all poets in here so we could grab any interpretation but for myself i couldn't just explain but your piece got stucked in my heart and sometimes words are not enough to express what's in one's heart! -
Yes, it is rather short, but I knew I wouldnt get a second stanza without grabbing at straws so I thought I would just let it be Many thanks for your remarks, they are appreciated
-
Thank you for your comments, they are appreciated

Thank you I am glad you enjoyed it,

Wow...I'm not sure what to say about this...because it's so short! But I think a lot can be done in a short space. I myself, like brevity. I don't like writers who just go on and on. Talking a lot doesn't necessarily mean saying a lot, if you know what I mean. But here, I think you've got something. And I like the phrase "the netherworld"...it sounds dark, mysterious, almost impenetrable. It's that place where artists go, when they create art. And what is art but a passionate expression of our inner beings? A thoughtful, compact poem!

Short- yet blunt, and quite to the point. It's so true, though, isn't it? Welcome to our world of self expression- of love, and pain, and happiness, and sorrow. Our own little world which exists within ourselves. amazing little ditty- certainly makes one think with such a few amount of words, which takes some talent! Great write! Thanks so much for you're comment on my poem "Pulsating"- I appreciate it, and i'll be back for more of you're writes!

I like this Lynne. A passionate artist has the ability to reach hearts and minds to the ends of the earth. Very very nice.
