SINGULAR..even! Oh..and I adore the first stanza in its entirety!
Re: Out of a White Hole by ALChemy	LilMsLadyPoet 152.163.100.135	29-Aug-05/4:12 PM
brain's< spelling The singlualr period, in the second to last line, and then none at the end...fix that... and get rid of commas or use puncuation throughout. The transition here is uncomfortable> by subconscious gravity It flies on whimsical wings maybe would be helped with a period there? But then you start with 'it', without saying what 'it' is. I don't know...needs some work there. I like it though,; unique. So will give you a genrous vote...but would be higher with some cleaning up.

B.S....leave the hath! (Everyone is entitled to their opinion , right?) And it is NOT empty! It takes great skill to use few well-chosen words to convey big images, thoughts, or situations! The canvas was well-painted here, not too much, just enough...leaving the viewer just as he/she should be, at the sight before them. (Don't you dare change it one bit!)

Man... This really rocked me, hit me and moved me sideways. Putting this in my favorites. Damn.

Good question. I'd ask Quevedo but he's a bit incommunicado.

Maybe what we see on the outside is inside. So why not create something on the inside and make it on the outside.
Re: a comment on Out of a White Hole by ALChemy	ALChemy 65.188.89.69	29-Aug-05/1:16 PM
Thanks. I was at a loss for a title till a thought crossed my mind. "Is there such things as white holes?" I researched it and found some interesting scientific theories and yet another metaphor.
Re: a comment on Out of a White Hole by ALChemy	ALChemy 65.188.89.69	29-Aug-05/12:49 PM
Thanks D. That's pretty much how it came to me. In inspiring lines and images. I wrote them down and then pieced them together adding and subtracting parts till I found somekind of connected meaning in it. (a method of writing that I use quite often.) There was a primal feeling in me that emanated throughout the writing of the poem and I can only hope found it's way into the poem.

I got my analytical abilities from my dad and my dirty mind from my mom. You can see how this combo can get me in trouble at poemranker. I was afraid I might offend you but my point was to point out how you can make something so personal and versatile at the same time. You have a great knack for that. Jack: Your son? Jack Kerouac? Pet? See, versatile poetry.

Even a thoughts must be searched or found before you can formulate it's meaning. And definitions are comprised of thoughts. Even if God found someone who had no idea of God's existance they would still need to first come upon the awareness of God's presence before they could realize what God is. Ps. 139:7-12 God is everywhere. We cannot escape His presence. 1 Ki. 8:27 The heavens cannot contain God. Jer. 23:23-24 No one can hide from God. He is always near at hand. God fills the heaven and earth. Heb. 4:13 There is no creature hidden from God's sight. All things are naked and opened to His sight. Acts 17:24-28 God is man's creator. God is not far from us. In Him, we live and move and have our being. If we seek God, we will find Him. But if we forsake God, He will cast us off (1 Ch. 28:9; Matt. 7:7-12; Ja. 4:7-10). God's everywhere (in heaven and earth) except hell which is the absence of God. Paul says to "lift up holy hands, without wrath and doubting" in prayer. That seems more to me like welcoming God with open arms not firing a signal or lighting a beacon but I could see you making a satellite dish comparison. I think when God speaks to us it's not some transmission but that he is actually there speaking from within to your soul which lives in a burrow without cable or satellite. To argue religion is pointless because it's based in interpretation and usually few facts. This has been very enlightening. You've made points that will have me soul-searching for hours to come. The Gold/God thing: I was thinking more how men have gone to war over both. Left thier families behind for both etc. I think you could make a great poem out of it. Maybe the find/define issue is more like the chicken/egg question.

The vibrator idea is worthy of thought and perhaps future translocation to the annals of poemranker.

Gold has some fine qualities that you may lump as splendour. I'd use a less superlative word, however. But the word "divine" makes gold like God, and that I cannot accept.
