As I read through this untitled poem, I can’t help but feel a sense of admiration for Christopher Paul Bettridge’s ability to convey such powerful emotions through their words. The way Christopher Paul delicately weaves their thoughts together is nothing short of a work of art, leaving me with a newfound appreciation for the beauty of poetry.

What strikes me most about this piece is the depth of Christopher Paul Bettridge’s emotions, which is evident from the very first line.

The imagery of a butterfly, with all its delicate and fleeting beauty, is a perfect metaphor for the person Christopher is writing about. The way Christopher describes her movements as she flutters by, dancing in the wind, is so vivid that I can almost see her in front of me.

But what really draws me in is the subtle hint of sadness that underlies Christopher’s words.

As he describes feeling the pull of her gravity, it’s as if he’s acknowledging the pain of unrequited love. Yet, even in the midst of that pain, he is still able to see the beauty in her, to appreciate the fact that she is still free to flitter and fly as she pleases.

Overall, I would highly recommend taking a moment to read through this poem.

It’s a touching reminder of the power of words to convey deep emotion, and a testament to the beauty of the human spirit. So whether you’re a poetry lover or simply looking for a moment of reflection, I urge you to give this untitled gem a chance.

Poem on the 7th of January

As I read through the captivating words of “Poem on the 7th of January,” I am left in awe of Christopher Paul Bettridge’s ability to transport me into a world of deep introspection and reflection.

The imagery and metaphors used throughout the poem are not only breathtakingly beautiful, but also incredibly thought-provoking.

One cannot help but be struck by the juxtaposition of the concept of divine mercy and the tortured dreams that plague mankind. It is a powerful reminder of the complexities of the human experience, and the constant struggle to find peace amidst the pain.

The use of the flowers grown from the eyelids of Buddha as a symbol for the fleeting nature of life is particularly poignant, as is the image of the poppy blooming just before the crimson bower is cast over where Morpheus bestows his powder.

Christopher Paul Bettridge’s skillful use of language truly brings these scenes to life in a way that is both vivid and haunting.

As I reflect on this poem, I find myself drawn to the idea of the soft confluence of self, and the need to obliterate it in order to find true peace.

It is a message that resonates deeply with me, and one that I believe many readers will find equally powerful.

Overall, I would highly recommend “Poem on the 7th of January” to anyone looking for a thought-provoking and beautifully written piece of literature. Christopher Paul Bettridge’s talent is truly remarkable, and his ability to connect with readers on such a deep level is truly a gift.

How Anger Can Power Your Creativity This one surprised me

As someone who is constantly looking to improve their creativity, I was intrigued by the idea that anger can play a role in this. In “How Anger Can Power Your Creativity,” Anthony Signorelli does an excellent job of explaining how anger can be channeled into something productive instead of destructive.

By exploring the root of our anger, we can often find that it’s because we haven’t engaged with our creativity in some way.

  • This is certainly true for me — I’m often angry with myself for not making time to write or draw, for example.

Anthony Signorelli is also refreshingly honest about his own experiences, which makes the article feel more personal and relatable.

I appreciate that he is not just telling us what we should do, but are also sharing his own struggles and successes. In fact, his story about feeling angry at having lost the time to pursue creative endeavors is one that I think many of us can relate to.

What I found most inspiring about this article is that it presents a different way of thinking about anger.

Instead of viewing it as something negative that needs to be controlled or repressed, Anthony Signorelli shows us how it can be harnessed as a source of power. I love the idea that anger can be transformed into determination and commitment, rather than something that causes us to lash out or shut down.

Overall, “How Anger Can Power Your Creativity” is a thought-provoking and insightful read. It’s a reminder that sometimes we need to look at things from a different angle to find the answers we’re seeking.

If you’re struggling to tap into your creativity or are looking for a new perspective on how to approach your anger, I highly recommend giving this article a read.

Full Moon Tanka Haibun Walked outside to relieve myself. Feels like freedom. No one around to judge. Just me and nature. Wind howled through…

As I read Full Moon Tanka Haibun by Marcus aka Gregory Maidman, I was struck by the beauty of his words and the way he was able to connect with his readers through his vivid imagery and insightful musings.

From the very beginning of the piece, I felt like I was right there with him, experiencing the freedom of being alone with nature.

His words painted a picture in my mind of a tranquil valley within a valley, where he could let loose and howl like a wolf or hoot like an owl without anyone around to judge him.

But it wasn’t just the scenery that captured my attention — it was the way he was able to connect seemingly unrelated ideas and concepts, like freedom and the moon goddess, and tie them together in a way that made perfect sense.

As I read on, I couldn’t help but be impressed by his ability to weave together the works of other writers and philosophers, like Jodie Helm, Douglas Giles, PhD, and White Feather, into his own unique tapestry of thought.

This is a piece that will leave you thinking long after you’ve finished reading it.

It’s a testament to the power of language and the beauty of the written word. I highly recommend this piece to anyone who loves to ponder life’s big questions and is looking for a thought-provoking read that will stay with them long after they’ve finished it.

Marcus aka Gregory Maidman is truly a gifted writer.

Please Stop Telling Readers What To Do Try telling your story in the first-person-narrative; lead by example, not by instructing

He begins by discussing a story he almost read and the frustration he felt with the author’s instructive tone.

He then shares his own experience with writing and the benefits of sharing personal stories in a relatable and authentic way.

What sets Marcus’ review apart is his willingness to be vulnerable and share his own struggles with pain and trauma. He emphasizes the importance of “draining pain pockets” in order to make room for “capital L Light,” and encourages readers to embrace their own flaws and imperfections as opportunities for growth.

Throughout the review, Marcus emphasizes the importance of storytelling as a means of connection and inspiration.

He mentions his affiliation with Be Yourself, a publication by Joel Mwakasege that emphasizes the significance of writing from a personal perspective and sharing one’s own experiences rather than instructing others.

Overall, Marcus’ review is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of storytelling and the importance of being authentic and vulnerable in one’s writing.

His passion for the subject is evident throughout, and his message is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with finding their own voice as a writer.
