Sunday Poetry Musings


So today I spent some time dancing through the beautiful collection of words that make up 'The Poetic Chains of Dominic Luxford'. At one point I was utterly amazed by one of the poems, those words for a brief moment reflected an absolute truth. Now, hours later, I am trying to retrace my steps and share those words... though it appears my glimpse of enlightenment was fleeting.

Then I thought about the medium of internet and blog, and asked myself "Self... can I share content previously not available online? If I reference its source, am I advertising and building awareness for the artist, or am I making readily available, and thereby devaluing the precious words of the poet?"

So now I have no poem to share with you, but encourage you to dust off an old volume, and reacquaint yourself with a good friend.
