typhen,
Wow. Your poetry is awesome. You are a gifted Poet. This book is a gem and masterpiece. My favorites are "Chess, Titan, Dusk, and Melancholia".
Exceptional!
I love the way you have with words. You are proof that a vocabulary is a mighty weapon and you use it so well. I believe my favorite in this book, tough to decide between them all, is Dusk. Keep at it, my friend, one day we will be signing books in the same spot on Main street. Which Main street you ask? Does it really matter? :>
You've got some interesting poems! Though I must say, I know little of poetry except for what looks/sounds good and what makes me frown.
And your work most certainly looked and sounded superb. It was laid out very nicely and it was unique and mysteriously charming.
My favorite was Chess. That one made me grin.
Well done. Bravo!
Great job!
Keep writing!

I have been amazed lately by the talents of our young poets. I add my deepest appreciation for THIS offering of exquisite work, Typhen. You write as though you have been studying your craft for many, many years, but your age tells me it can't have been too long. However long, you have mastered a very difficult genre with poems that touch the heart.
The poems u have written are so beautiful and have this flow which is hard to loose. I am like totally dazzled with these poems, the feel so much like the ones written in the older times from poets like Shakespeare, which is a good thing as nowadays we don't get to read poems with the old feeling, hats off.
Do write more!
Your poetry is of the classic variety in its execution, expression, form, rhythm and even rhyme. But more important, you use these tools like a master craftsman to express things in a way we can all feel with you, which is what great poetry does - it finds a way to say exactly what we would have said ourselves if we had that same brilliant skill. I'm in awe.
