RE: My Private Star

in #poetry7 years ago

This is by far some of the better poetry I've read in a while.Especially how for me the star never represents anything wholly, but like Jorge Luis Borges' Aleph, which is more like a diamond, its prism illuminating the walls of peoples souls with a phantasmagoria of "stars". Good stuff! I also write poetry if you would like to check it out.

love Borges - a poetic response too - Very nice :)

Thanks. Borges is the man. Have you read Adolfo Bioy Casares? He was a friend of Borges and makes damn fine literature, including a great collection of stories collaborated with Borges about a prisoner who solves outside crimes from his jail cell. Just an unasked for rec. Thanks for the upvote!

you're welcome - Haven't read Casares - I will check him out

Do it. He's a gem.
