I find your poem very meaningful and worthy of much more than a single reading, Jon. I appreciate the perspective that you have shared with your readers (including me of course). Love and peace to you,

Inept? You? Never. So beautifully penned, power in poignant lines of self criticism. We are our own harshest critics -- believe me, I know. Do I ever. Well done, Jon.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Art is expressed by the writer or painter when capturing in whatever form the visions and colors of their souls, and putting it out there.
As always Jon Michael, brilliant work
peace and love, Carole~

Ah, the sticks and stones of art are many. So many have had to die to become known.

Thank you for reminding me of the whims of art and what it takes to survive.

The whole piece is impressive, Jon, but that last stanza is both the heart and soul of this unique poem.

All the reasons why art is so diverse. Each sees what they want to see whether conjured or reality. Deep writing with a fantastic delivery...

Be always safe,

This is pemmican poetry, Jon, a rich condensed dish...there is just so much here, so much, and the control of expression is impressive...and the idea of defence admirable, a warrior prepared to counter-thrust.
Very fine indeed.

Art is in the eyes of the beholder and not all see the same picture.

and we do salvage!! YES!!
we as poets and creations of possibility
creators and imaginative pursuers delving deep
pen forward with ink & muse

listening & noble...always daring our art & craft
