explanations be damned

explanations be damned

the hierarchy of metaphor

similes under pressure

to refute the like or as

for refinement 

just become what they are

without objection

Maybe just maybe the pressure creates the objection . Because as the hierarchy goes , the objection is the lesser of the like or as . Just maybe. Happy Valentines fine sir. Xoxo , Holly

You are welcome Jacob.

Haha for the purists maybe we have to spell it out with our objectives in poetry writing but free speech opens the gates to all regardless. Poetry is an art which doesn’t have to be practical, doesn’t need a meaning , just a roadto lead the reader.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

damn sometimes that road is elusive, with bad directions.
thank you, andrew.

yes they do .. i agree .. we can use all the tools of poetry .. even in an analytical way .. use a formula, if you will, sterile and void of any emotion or visionary catharsis .. and still once released .. it takes on a life of its own .. we see what we see .. we is what we is :)

The outcome is shocking however it does not surprise.
