- "it's been a long absence; so long this almost creeped thru the net unnoticed by 'yours truly'...like Z I simply miss(ed) your participation; briefly made friends with you, then you vanished - bit like Troy AKA Baron Von Dark - and I'm sort of left with the fleeting memories of how encouraged and excited I felt being amongst the participation and involvement with you and others posting here. It's good to see you haven't lost your lustre for poetry; you gave this a wistful, almost transparent feel; the language and form was a bit like something from either a fantasy or Romanticism-ish, with constant interchanging rhythmic presence; sad yet visually stunning...thanks for sharing again Josh. All the best - regards, Col :D "

- "it's interesting that you choose to post after such a lengthy absence; that you 'crop up' to comment my poem a month or so ago...I wonder where you went, quite foten...like a few others here. Your absence leaves a hole. I have to say, the title was a touch pompous :P..hehe, but the poem itself seemed to convey an interesting mixture of the post-Romantic; surrealist, even Italian Futurist - it reminded me of a poem whose name and artist escapes me, about flying through the night and the 'sights' the narrator sees...I enjoyed as ever the imaginative syntax, the unique word choises "atrophied" etc...sometimes, towards the end it felt a little technically obvious: " Facing faint fears played
From an echo's collapse
-This fallen figure, my faded silhouette-
-This broken trigger, my final regret-"...feels a bit like aliterative "overkill" on the f-sounds; that minor criticism aside it was a good poem, sparkled with creative and almost yearning language and I enjoyed it. I won't hold my breath for a renewed interest from you, but hopefully if you post again I'll get another opportunity to see where your poetry has picked up...nice one Josh "
