if these are your reasons, then please link to a soundfile of someone speaking it. then the english speakers here can appreciate it for it's sounds. maybe horus will record you and post it at gangbox, like he did with mrs.g. throws a whole new light on things, it does.

i was in a bad mood when i wrote those comments. sorry for any offense. the bottom line, as i was trying to assert somehow, is that to convey anything (art, as you call it) you should at least pretend to want to, as a starter. unless the readers speak welsh, or are as culturally enlightened as Settle, your message won't come across. it is interesting, but

I THINK ALL WELSH POETS COULD LEARN A VALUABLE LESSON FROM DYLAN THOMAS. I.E. INGLES POR FAVOR!! IN ALL SERIOUSNESS THOUGH I ENJOYED THIS POEM A GREAT DEAL. YOU DON'T DISCOVER MEANING WITH A DICTIONARY - A WORD IS MEANINGLESS IF ONLY DEFINED BY OTHER WORDS...SORT OF A GODEL INCOMPLETENESS TYPE DEAL...SO THEREFORE WHAT ONE IS LEFT WITH AS FAR AS MEANING IS CONCERNED IS ONE'S REACTIONS TO THE WORDS, AND A POEM LIKE THIS FORCES US TO LISTEN TO AND FEEL WHAT WE WOULD OTHERWISE PASS OVER IN SILENCE. FRANKLY THE PROPER MEANING OF A WORD IS INSIGNIFICANT TO ME MOST OF THE TIME - WHAT IS MORE IMMEDIATELY AFFECTING IS THE CONTEXT WITHIN WHICH THE WORD IS NORMALLY USED, THE SOUND THAT IT MAKES...THE VIBRANT AND VARIED SHADES OF MEANING WHICH DISTINGUISH YOUR WORD CHOICE FROM THE OTHER 100 WORDS YOU COULD HAVE USED IN IT'S PLACE IF YOU HAD GONE BY THE BOOK. IN THIS SENSE, POETRY, OR PROSE WITH DELICATE ECONOMY, IS A PROCESS IN WHICH WORDS ARE CHOSEN AND BY THIS ACT ALONE EXALTED. THIS PROCESS IS MADE ARTFULLY CLEAR IN THIS POEM, AT LEAST TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW WELSH, FAR MORE THAN IN MANY OTHER POEMS OF LENGTH OR QUALITY. IN THIS POEM YOU HAVE MADE THE POETIC PROCESS APPARENT, AND IN CHOOSING TO DO SO HAVE EXALTED THE POETIC PROCESS IN A TRULY ELEGANT AND UNIQUE MANNER - THE WORK IS SELF JUSTIFIED - BEAUTIFULLY SIMPLE AND SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL. SO IF YOU DIDN'T LIKE IT YOU'RE A COMPLETE FUCKWIT.
