Freud’s Shakespearean, Etherealities of Infatuation’s Imagined Love.

In today’s world of relative free speech, it has become fashionable for those who have attained a certain modality in their chosen free verse genre, to decry those who still attempt to emulate the past masters of the metric form, perhaps not in substance of their undoubted quality, but at least in similes of adherence to their oft-lauded form...

I find it strange that those poets who embrace every latest gimmick to captivate their readership, snatching at its short-lived applause only to leave a trail of forgotten debris behind, even less durable than yesterday’s news, should then step upon the podium of advice, to castigate others for not following in their footsteps of self-belief.

I was recently banned from Eratosphere by one Maryann Corbett, on the basis that I was a beginner poet, and as such had no right to enjoy the facilities therein, which in fact is a truth I could not object too though I had not registered any abhorrence to free verse or its composite equivalents.

Which made me wonder, if she had been born fully feathered and running at birth, as she seems to profess?

As I am now finding poetry too laborious and time consuming to post using Authorsden’s prehistoric editor, I have now decided to post a Facebook link instead.

This is a longwinded treatise composed entirely in iambic meter, questioning the durability of infatuation.

This is in a draft format which Facebook allows me the freedom to change, if I on further reflection should so wish.

Why on earth someone would question your poetic credentials Mor, I certainly do not comprehend. Eratosphere certainly sounds like a snooty site to me. I must make a note not to associate myself with those people. I'm not sure though why you consider authorsdens posting program to be old fashioned and/or cumbersome. I've taken your facebook link and will go to your page. I seldom use facebook these days myself. The only time I go there is to see what my relatives are up to. I'll see you there though. Bob.

I will echo the others as far as your entitlement as a poet, par none. As for snobs and literary critics of the latest in crowd fads, the best we can do is ignore them and they will go away from lack of attention they so desperately crave.

Unfortunately, probably to my own demise, I decided to end my involvement with social networks with AD. It seems that some members of my family, unable to create websites of their own along with most of the masses, have found social networks as a way of communicating. Therefore, I am now out of view of my own family's loop.

I find AD's form for editing and posting poems quite adequate and easy to use. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. Perhaps maybe because some are using the latest Microsoft word with its bloated document software with so many hidden modifiers that the form regurgitates it. Try using a simple text or rich text format rather than the usual .doc, getting rid of all the nasty stuff Microsoft introduced in its recent expensive upgrades. You can easily do this by saving your poem using the Save As function and designating that your poem be saved in text or rich text, perfectly easy to do and to then paste into the AD form.

Your poetry is world class, in any forum, any format, by any fair-minded person. Those who disagree are entitled to all the opinions they can find ... in the cesspools of their minds.

I am sorry...but I am still laughing about the comment some foolish person made saying you were a beginner poet? I have read your works for many years my friend and you are a long way from being a beginner...I think you must have joined one of those amateur run sites that have no clue as to what real poetry is and especially by a real poet such as you.

"Infirmity doth still neglect all office whereto our health is bound; we are not ourselves when nature, being oppressed, commands the mind to suffer with the body." See this as a metaphor.

"A friend is one who knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow."

"This above all: To thine own self be true." All three quotes by you know who.

You're one of the best, Mor. Stand strong in your calling.
And never give leeway to naysayers and half-wit wannabes.
