Comments : Writing Is A Form of Art

    Beautiful poem, writing is a form of art, I'm with you all the way on that! This poem to me felt very free and loose, like you are now releasing your thoughts and as you wrote in the opening stanza, opening yourself up to possibilities. That's why writing is so special to me, because it doesn't have any limits. There is always something to say or write about, even if you're confused about it at first.

    "Cold tiles and raindrops
    Kidnappings and perfume
    Alleys and secrets
    Blurry eyes and minute hand on the clock"

    - I found this neat how you put these images, kind of mixed, in the middle of the poem....it definitely shows you don't have to have everything clearly laid out in a poem, or make it have a subject and verb. A poem can make you feel tons of emotions and also be in the moment of the scene.

    I really liked the perspective you wrote about in the ending too, and I agree, poetry can be interpreted in many different ways especially if the poet is less direct and has hidden meaning between the lines that could make a read take many paths about its words.

    Keep writing!
