I sent the author a review, and the author requested me to re-rate it with 1-star because it's 'intentionally bad' poetry!
Oh my goodness, what a way to view books!
And yet, I can't help admitting it's valid.
You paint a powerful word picture. The metaphors are apt and your verse structure and words echo your mood.
The verse about termites had me cringing and the last line left me gasping. But I can't figure it out, so 'you' are a termite? (Sorry, am I missing something?)
Also, while the poem works as is and gets 5 stars from me - one part of my mind was distracted by the fact that there are now other ways of reading books, than on paper. I somehow felt I'd like to have seen a verse about that.
And I'm hesitating about saying 'Write On' - does that mean more tattooing?
