Greetings sindbad !

This is your sixth day port raid as part of you "A Week of Port Raid Package" from "Magical Express Delivery Wagon"  gifted to you by your Secret Valentine. May you'll find this review an inspiring and encouraging one.

Without much a do, here are the things I found out after reading your offering:

This piece doesn't simply tell you the moon is shining, it describes how the light feels on the speaker's skin, how it bleeds through their body. This attention to physical detail brings the reader directly into the scene, engaging their senses and enhancing their emotional experience. Your poem constantly juxtaposes enormous ideas (galaxies, millennia) with minute details (water dripping from an eyebrow, footsteps on dust). This jarring shift in scale forces the reader to contemplate vastness and smallness simultaneously, adding to a sense of vertigo and awe.

Figures like the demon, the wolf, and the use of crucifixion imagery tap into deep-rooted archetypes and mythologies. This gives the poem a sense of timeless weight, as if these personal reflections connect to something much older and deeper in the human psyche. This piece holds opposing forces in tension—creation and destruction, life and death, human and animal, spiritual and corporeal. Refusing to offer tidy resolutions mirrors the real complexities of existence and offers intellectual challenge for the reader.

The lack of conventional structure and somewhat opaque symbolism means the reader must do some work to interpret the poem. This active participation invites personal resonance and deeper engagement – there is no single "right" answer to what the poem means. The disjointed stream-of-consciousness flow feels authentic to the overwhelming nature of the experience the poem addresses. This is akin to how real thoughts operate, moving quickly and tangentially with emotional peaks and troughs. Your poem validates those powerful experiences where we feel simultaneously connected and insignificant in the face of the cosmos. It embraces confusion alongside moments of startling clarity.

It's worth noting that some readers might find the poem excessive or indulgent when it explores the grotesque. Still, even these elements add to a feeling of relentless existential investigation, of a search for meaning that won't be silenced by comfort or convention.

This is indeed a magnificent poem worth reading. Thank you for sharing this to us. Write on!

Best regards,
Gervic
