then pray
visit my archives some day
deep within your thoughts do spray
just to enlighten me

but don't betray and say
you like it just because
you don't want to hurt me

but be frank to the bone....
hit me hard with a stone
then alone a sculptor I will be
of enameled poetry
worthy of reading by all \
including me

I feel the same! Truth can be hard to take but can yield positive results. "be frank to the bone..hit me hard with a stone.. then alone a sculptor I will be of enamelled poetry worthy of reading by all..including me". Like this line of thought. We can make a much better job of a poem if we know and ajust it's faults.. There is a problem though - everyone has their own ideas of what is good/bad - so whose advice do you take?

Love Mand xxxxx

you are second to none

"be frank to the bone..
