I like your use of colors as thread for your poem Nicole. I like that colors inhabit this world view here described and how that palette rubs into you in such physical manner – making it feel very intimate. Thanks Nicole.

Very powerful, ending with that question, most appropriate for Donald’s prompt. I like where you explored. Thanks.

If you’re a Neil Gaiman fan: I always think his take on deities from different pantheons hanging out is a pretty nifty one. And if Polynesian met Hindu, I could see the chiseled hero/smoldering temptress pairing happening…

But needed you to say it in a poem. 2012 zeitgeist is baloney to me too.

And am delighted that the ipad is helping the non-verbal. My son is a bit non-verbal and thinks visually. I could relate. It’s good to see how you’re writing Asperger poems. The world needs that voice.

When we are seen as being different, who is the one left feeling uncomfortable, us or them? You have once again taken a prompt and completely owned it in the most beautiful way possible.

And then to show other people the beauty that they haven’t seen.

I love the way you used colors to contrast the poem and support the powerful content that you have presented in it. Wonderful impression of the prompt.
