Replying to a comment on:

Talia Eternal (Free verse) by Enkidu

Of late her temper, Flaring alike to mortal rage Is slaked by birds of down Which flutter beside her And give brief comfort The cobalt shadows cast Talia in the palest light While she disapproves the daring, Wild dance of sunny morning About her person Alone She stands alone Her eyes closed to A swift and swollen reality Robbed painfully of darkness Alas! Talia Vampiress no more

If my comment was considerably "nasty", then you have some serious reality to wake up to. If anything was particularly bullish and outstanding, it was the comment that is presently being responded to. If you knew what the word slake truly meant then you would realize it has nothing to do with liquid in the context of my poem, which utilizes its alternate meaning quite well. If you have to pick up a dictionary while you are writing YOUR poetry, then I suggest that you put down your finger paints and use words that you have actual knowledge of. I bet you use a thesaurus as well...you intolerable, mindstarving, study-case shell of a poet.
