- "Reminiscent of "Love in the time of Cholera" this breathes of missed opportunities, of hearts that feel too much - but by comparison make all else seem less pure. To feel at all is a joy, but not without its toll. Beautifully melancholic."

- "This pulls at the heart like nothing else, the sky on this day was like a pouring expulsion of agony from the heavens. Then terse words - rolling down the page - steady and unrelenting, gaining momentum. But you still grasp at it in that hopeless turgid hour the gasping impetuous needs that bind our humanity together. In the face of such incredible beauty, he cried tears of frustration, agony and inconsolable grief because he knew he would never amount to anything, he knew that he was nothing, and in his heart of hearts he was certain that this was as it should be. Thank you."

- "Riddle. Last comment. I was going to say this is very direct of you, it involves less imagery than usual. But it is very riddle-like in its format. Tristeza (sadness) I know as a rock band, but the rest of that first line eludes me. A pleasure to immerse in your words again, finding pleasure in melancholy once more."

- "Our world is burning - transient nature of the universe - the tragedy of the temporal - the tragic knowledge that what is beautiful is forever precisely because it will burn...We make ourselves into such strange creatures and let ourselves become entranced by the nature of the beast. That which ruins us fascinates us. Art is life, because its all we have to go on. Cheers."

- "I felt the instant pull to refute, but that would be wrong, for you had it right from the start - truth can so often defy simplistic logic and objectivity. Sacred is the silence that waits for us to listen. Gorgeous beyond words, the soft sadness is almost forgotten in the moment. "

- "The repetition i think is important, because it is not only the loss that is important, it is that which touches us deeply and so often it is loss...honesty is a wonderful thing..."

- "Ah you never disappoint, or do you - i'm not quite sure which should apply. That brings together the beauty, and then leaves us with the loss - but its not all we're left with, you just make it hard to go back from the conclusion"

- "You feel, and in doing so represent something so pertinent that I dared expose myself so voluminously, so statistically erroneously, I daresay in my old age - if technology does not fail me, i'll still be reading your words"

- "Because you are human and willing to admit it, willing to show it, and they're unwilling to show anything but an ability to dance and evade any and all meaning. Unwilling to show anything but the impenetrably words of a piece of machinery..."

- "love is so lonely, because we make it a symbol, we live to achieve externalities in order to grab at happiness, lock up our piece of the pie. Senseless expansionism. Theres something to the sentimental notion, that its within us already"

- "but I know this intimately, ineffably. Yet that isn't even the point, we realize need, yearning, and then give up - and all we have is the longing for what? who knows? the silence, is a symptom of our loss and confusion"

- "Those moments in life that are so beautiful are sad in themselves - beauty that brings one to tears, ave maria sung in hushed tones - to seperate is to remove them...for the nature of both is to accompany the other"

- "You can see this in art of any kind - what is beautiful is surrendering to sadness, to love - to anything - like falling from the top of a building, it encompasses so much sadness and love and beauty that it transforms"

- "I think you've pointed out something important here - that the depth of feeling is the same. That one can take from something feelings as deep as...they create each other in a very integral way and in a way become each other"

- "And yet so beautifully glorious - that tang of despair - as sharp as desire itself...as deep as the need of belonging. The endless dichotomy, that rise and fall, ebb and flow of reality - the loneliness, quiet and a hushed whisper in the night"

- "It is a joy, once more, to behold the words of the wise - for in languor my mind sours and grows weary of life...You bring to my mind a great many thoughts that need thinking...write on, old friend"

- "Inspiration to me, is the words of one who has thought, and been inspired...To touch the rarest tears/in a mind and a universe that do not share the same space - one needs no space to create - the imagination is unlimited and beautiful infinitely "

- "I think the title was well picked; it is unliked you, this piece, in that you are for the most part concerned with tragedy as perfection, but here it is more a confession - a personal, rather than an abstract quality..."

- "I cannot help but feel that it is your depth of feeling, your passion that survives your poetry - there is no cold resignation, but a fiery force behind it - full of a feeling that without would be naught but defeat..."

- "Words washing down walls, their bleeding frames a moment in the mind - a moment of wonder and regret - mixing emotions and thoughts. One of the saddest thoughts I have is a world without you"

- "This is brimming with magnificence, with the style that you exude, you exemplify. Its like a cold dead hand of comfort, but you must grasp it anyway...Truly pivotal expressions, there is no precedent for this literature, for you are the pinnacle..."

- "Tomorrow may never come, may never be, that is why they say man gorges on beauty, on the fleeting and ethereal magnificence...to dwell on sorrow as if it were bread has its own place...but for eternity?"
