You have the gift of expressing all that others feel within and I thank you and encourage you to continue ...May you keep being inspired and continue with your gift... Would you mind if I added your angel poem to my poetry site? I love your site, the visual tranquility of these pages in contrast with the visceral impact of your words, or more accurately your voice. rising out of this quiet design, livid & ragged then suddenly whispering & whimsical & of course there\'s that sarcasm, right at the edge... your paradoxes are excellent, almost balanced between the existential extremes, as is necessary for poetry, at least the way I see it. I love your site, have I mentioned that? ...your site is incredible... my coffee is now tepid... the laundry in the dryer is probably wrinkled... I\'m still behind the screen when I should be out feeding the hungry or volunteering at the hospital.. but I\'m here, and I\'m happy... *laughs* I checked out your page, and I really enjoyed your poems. I must say that you have some definite talent. your poems are very heart felt I love your poems I love your poems. They are pretty, especially, \"Beside You.\" I did really enjoy your poetry, especially \"I have no heart...\" and \"Sometime...\". I love the way you put the words together with such feeling. I loved your birthday poem. It was really funny! I just have to say damn I like it Your poem was beautiful!!!! [Re: Birthday Poem] there were some pieces of poetry that caught my fancy/eye.

[Re: Birthday Poem] Your poem reminds me of my husband -- he hates lectures, unless of course, he\'s giving one. [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father] That is EXACTLY the kind of poetry I LOVE!! Thank you ... I enjoyed your work. Wow, those were great poems. Thanx - I really enjoyed and trust there will be many more in the future.O Magi speaks to a pain I\'ve not known, but have glimpsed. Thank you for the... chance to read and enjoy your poetry. It is beautiful and reminded me of some the feelings and emotions that I have been trying to find again. Relationships are hard, but the right words can put everything in focus. Please continue to write the words that touch souls and moves mountains.I really enjoyed your poems. I must say that you have some definite talent I enjoyed all the pomes As I was reading \"Untitled (for a Reason),\" I began to think of just how easily the human mind bends, like clay to the sculptor. We teach ourselves to fight and not to hurt, and perhaps we need to bleed a little bit. I think this particular poem emphasizes the intensity that one gains in basic independent thinking. I checked out a few of the poems on your site. They are very impressive. I like your poems a lot. I enjoyed your poetry very much. What inspires you? Is it personal events or observation? I will guess more of the personal event is in your words. Your work flows very nicely... much like a gently stream. I hope to be invited, again, to dance through your thoughts. Well it is me again. I just finished another page of your work. I was mesmerized. Thank you for sharing your work. I have truly enjoyed it. I\'ve enjoyed reading your poetry on the arcanum site. Know what, I\'m going to save it, to read again at leisure. I\'ve a personal preference for work that is structured, not necessarily by rhyme and rhythm, but work that shows evidence that the words have been thought over, carefully selected for emphasis, sound, alliteration, etc. I seem to read so much that just seems like an outpouring of emotion, which, however valid and genuine, fails to impact because of lack of thought and discrimination. Thanks for this. I find it highly entertainingBy the way, I don\'t know if you know this, but you were posting poetry a year or so ago and this is what really revitalized ME as a poet. There was something about your poetry that I really liked and I started writing again, which I hadn\'t done for about 25 years. I just wanted to thank you for that. I did read a few of your poems and enjoyed them very much. Have you ever thought of publishing any of them? There is a lot of crappy \"poetry\" out there... yours is not. It was really interesting to read. I visited your page, and I was impressed with the look and feel. It has a very professional look, and also does a good job with the art. Nice art. I enjoyed your poems and applaud the courage and tenacity it must have taken to get them there.The poem is lovely. Just wanted to say THANKS. It made my birthday special. [Re: Birthday Poem]Me gustó mucho el poema. [Re: Birthday Poem] That was a great poem I am really glad I found your page. They were very good poems. What a gorgeous little website! Well done! I loved the poetry - you sent me the URL and I stopped by, loved them so much that I decided to put them up on my site as soon as possible. [Re: Linkware] The poem was very nice, it made me smile! [Re: Birthday Poem] I read a few of your poems - they are absolutely beautiful. You must have a large amount of passion just welling up inside of you for something so powerful to come out in such a poetic manner. I wish I could write poems just as well as you... You don\'t know what it means to me to read poems that I can actually relate to. I really enjoyed reading your poems....they really made me think of how deep someone\'s love can be...I hope to find someone to share these lovely poems with..keep up this wonderful work.. Thank you so much for... your poems, they were very beautiful. You are very talented. you are the coolest!! it helped make my 16th birthday just that much better!! you poem was super cool and made me smile!!! totally cool I like the poetry page a lot. Do you mean that those great poetry are written by u? Whoa!!! In future, if u have any new pieces... please share them with meYou are a very talented poet and I enjoyed your poetry very much. We have another poet who comes down from time to time, name of Kevin Taylor, the drive-by poet. Every now and then a rock comes through the cafe window with a piece of paper tied around it. That\'s Kev. Don\'t hold your breath, and don\'t wait up late, you never know when he\'ll drop in, uh, drive by. What a lovely poem! It\'s so whimsical and cheery--just my style! ... Did you just write it recently? I\'m going to print it out and share it with my friends! [Re: Birthday Poem] ...the birthday poem!!! It was beautiful! ... Beautiful words of inspiration :) Your girlfriend/wife/lover or whoever must adore you!! Kevin Taylor, the link to your poetry is the best birthday gift! Thank you very, very much. My favorite of all (word person that I am) must be these four lines:

And as the sun drew from its sliver
Silver skirted seas of slate
That day that God had twice divided
Saw her shadowed sun too late

Beautiful on many levels.

Hurray, hazuzas, applause, noisemakers going. [Re: Razzmatazz]I viewed your page long enough, that my coffee got cold, my feet slowly made there way off the floor and up, and my timer BUZZED after about three hours. Your poetry is fabulous and the manner in which you present yourself through the creativity of this site is brilliant.I love your poetry. I think we tend to think alike where love is concerned but you word yours much better than mine. Keep writing, it\'s beautiful...for some reason I started with The Firefly Tales,, It was dark out when I read it, I was on the sea, and in the storm, I felt sorrow, and fear, Beyond climbing away from the darkness, I was inspired and with peace, upon reading Angelness, I will keep reading them for a while, You are very serious and yet versatile, Always a journey, always a ride.you are a great writer I enjoyed your poetry very much.Enjoyed reading your poetry...insightful & thoughtful. Your play on words...delightful. beautiful web site -- loved the line ... \"to make satan weep....\" and the \" if every man you met was God...\" [Re: O Magi + What if every man you met was God...]-Hey - nice poem ...you used a unique description of how the \'Muse\' visits you :) ...very original! I loved the dialect :) [check earlier] I really enjoyed some of your poemsGreat poetry...! excellent poetryWow. Wow, and more wow! Kevin, this page is so wonderful! These pages, I should say. The words are beyond incredible. I love the fact that you read some of them, and thoroughly enjoyed listening to your voice. So much of a poem is personal, and it\'s unique to be able to hear the author\'s point of view. Everything is faultless, and I can offer no suggestion other than that you should keep writing until the day you die. You are incredibly talented.I have truly enjoyed reading your poetry... I read poetry on a frequent basis, I suppose, and I read a lot of poetry published online. Yours has struck a familiar chord upon reading, though... I will be back to read more; it touches something personal inside. I really like \"Angelness\" and I admire the way you are not afraid of writing what isn\'t expected. That element is what gives beauty to your work.That got both [of us] laughing out loud! [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]Good poem there, mate [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]Cute!!! :):) [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]May I have your permission to share this with a ... business associate and friend?

[Re: Incandescent] enjoyed \"spare me the lecture father\"I just visited your poetry site again, and once again, I feel like I\'ve gotten a boost of spiritual communion. I love your work. I\'m so critical of poetry, usually, unless it really speaks to me personally I have a really hard time reading it. Yours speaks to me personally, and it\'s so smooth and beautiful, too. High communication and high aesthetics.your poetry has old world charm but \"Pageant Of Dawn\" is my fav by far this has a feel of life of death of cold but waiting for the sun to come and make you warm once again which the sun can be compared to love in many ways this poem is like a love poem of the night and of the day very lovely like the poet\'s words that dance before the readers eyes... and one more thing your layout of your page is beautiful like being in a magic garden just as the first morning star wakes in the pink sky Good stuff! I\'m no expert but I tink yive captured yer Irish brogue.

[Re: How to write a poem...] Great line (as I\'m sure you already know <g>) - to dance upon the lips of Death one last time [Re: How to write a poem]I\'ve enjoyed reading your poetry on the arcanum site. Know what, I\'m going to save it, to read again at leisure. I\'ve a personal preference for work that is structured, not necessarily by rhyme and rhythm, but work that shows evidence that the words have been thought over, carefully selected for emphasis, sound, alliteration, etc. I seem to read so much that just seems like an outpouring of emotion, which, however valid and genuine, fails to impact because of lack of thought and discrimination. Thanks for this. I find it highly entertainingYou have won the Crazyboy Hot site of the week. [April 20th, 1999]I did enjoy your poetry immensely.You are a poet Kev. and that\'s the simple truth.
That is the truth....very poignant.. [Re: Veni vidi lamentari] I just finished another page of your work. I was mesmerized.In Tiger words... Grreeaaattt! Love the \"can\'t be hanged twice\" analogy. Very Clever! and your use of the vernacular is very effective. It gives a strong sense of character. and the rhymes scheme and slant rhymes, o, me o my... O and the whimsy.... [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]Good God man!
You must be a lyric archaeologist.
You have unearthed the root of all do-wop! [Re: Joy of Kitchen]I truly enjoyed your Black Verse. Especially \"How to write a poem\". And yes, \"Sometime...\" The last 3 lines made me laugh. I liked the humor in the end. I really loved the way you handled this poem. Goofy dialects can (and VERY often do) end in such atrocious disasters. Also, it\'s very hard to write a decent get-the-hell-off-my-back poem without looking like a whining little wuss. You\'ve overcome so many pit traps in only three stanzas!!!!!! I envy you. [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I liked this, Kevin. It\'s very wry and the line breaks are wonderful. [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I can\'t offer critique, but I think you\'ve done a good job here. I enjoyed it. Like the way you ended this as well! Nice work [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]Your work reminds me of Taoist writings I have studied. [Some] poetry is meant to shock and cause dissension.... yours is peaceful and calm and has much more feeling... Yours is meant for caring adults (of all ages). Thank you for sharing.As I was reading \"Untitled (for a Reason),\" I began to think of just how easily the human mind bends, like clay to the sculptor. We teach ourselves to fight and not to hurt, and perhaps we need to bleed a little bit. I think this particular poem emphasizes the intensity that one gains in basic independent thinking... Thank you - I will come again and again.I love the layout of your pages...so elegant and understated! ... I enjoyed reading your work!Wow! I had never imagined that something like this could be done. Too cool. [Re: Joy of Kitchen] I love everything I\'ve read so far.WOW A+ [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] Really liked this Kevin! :) [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I love the galloping rhythm of your poem that keeps me moving! [Re: The psychiatric doctor...]Lovely. Just absolutely stunning. I must say that I am very surprised indeed. You\'re not a *girl*, nor a *teen*, nor *depressed* nor a *Tori Amos* quoter. I am very, *very* pleased. I enjoy learning from those with actual *life experience* and wisdom. Which you definitely have. I loved the life story - the audio idea is just great. The story of you and your wife was just incredible and so dramatic and romantic. I Also loved the poetry - incandescent was just, . . . wow. Well, I shall leave now, I don\'t like rambling on in a groupie-esque fashion... ::smile:: I will return.Just wanted to say that I REALLY love \"Beside You\"..... you write very expressively and beautifullyI really enjoyed your poems. Forgive me, your poetry is lovely, but I feel I must apologize in advance for getting the most enjoyment out of your \"Irish Ditty\": I chuckled a great deal, and I do like to chuckle.You have a beautiful homepage and I love the poetry. I think \"If Every Man Were God\" is my favorite.You have a great talent for poetry, and I appreciate the simplicity and honesty of your art. Keep up the great work, and congratulations.I have made a return visit to your incredible site and read most of your poetry and it is truly of immeasurable excellence.I have enjoyed many hours at your site. It is one of my favorites.VERY cool! [Re: Accident] Made me smile.
Your other one, about the gypsy souls, made me cry.
Very excellent.This is great! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] AMAZING! I love it! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]:):) Great poem! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]You are amazing Kevin. ...and you continue to write things I read. [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]I enjoyed that! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]Cool poem! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] Amazingly beautiful. What else can I say? Please keep up the unique work \"Excellence is the final step for success\" You, my friend are damn near close. Your webpage is one of the best out there. ...What a wonderful website, filled with good design and thought-provoking poetry. Thank you Dear god, this site is beautiful... in so many glorious ways. Captivating, lovely, and delightful.
Bravo, friend. BravoOk, You have an awesome talent for writing. I have only been writing for about 3 years and love when poetry isn\'t modern!!! and yours is definitely not [written in the] modern way of writing. Love the use of words etc..GREAT JOB!beautiful works here, the Irish ditty was great, light, caring, free worksI\'ve been to your site before and like always your site is pure excellence. It looks like a classic. The poetry is so unique, that sometimes I feel like [I am] reading from a 16th century poet. Not to say that you\'re old :)I\'ve found myself often returning to your page for its incredible content and passionate approach... you inspire my writing I must say...I love the poems. They\'re unique and special
I was touched by the word\'s of your poetry.
I wanted to know, have you always had a poets heart? ...
Something you wrote made me pull out a few of my journals and start to write again.Hey! This is one \'heck of a\' cool poetry site!... would it be okay if I were to link your site at mine?I love your poetry web siteMy first encounter with a site of such genuine reading - look forward for moreI love that! [Re: 1999]Whoa dude, cool poem, that bit of work bounced round nicely in my head, made it a pleasant read! If you keep writing this stuff, I\'ll keep readin it dude! Its very good...... [Re: I am not your teacher...]Liked this one Kevin [Re: Beloved] Very nice Kevin! [Re: Beloved]I adored this... I enjoyed the flow and the enchantment so much, I read it four times. [Re: Razzmatazz] this is sweet.. [Re: Between 16s]Quite entertaining, thanks! [Re: Pannin\' fer Rhymes]I reckin\' this is one of the best thangs from you I ever read. Yep. [Re: Pannin\' fer Rhymes]Excellent rhyme scheme, lively meter, great execution. [Re: Stone Age]I like this one, it rings so true. [Re: Razzmatazz]Great piece of work! I picked up a beat the first verse and a tune the second. Pat yourself on the back! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]I LOVE this poem! I am really enjoying reading your work [Re: Beloved]loved your poem!!!!
it\'s one of those you have to read under your breath to hear your tongue trip down the words like water down a rocky stream. [Re: Razzmatazz]I luv it. [Re: 1999]I like it a lot, kind of a cross between Shel Silverstein, Lewis Carroll, and the poems in Calvin and Hobbes :^>
It\'s fun, I\'m gonna save it. Re: Psychiatree]Wow! I\'m kinda\' at a loss to how I should comment on this...needless to say I loved it. It just came from a world of imagination so far away I\'m not sure I\'d be able to get anywhere near it. It was like one long mind-expanding ride through another world which I suppose is exactly what art is meant to be. Or it was just funny. [Re: Ripple-tide]wow... very good. [Re: Razzmatazz]er... interesting, to say the least [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]Wow, over
whelming
(I really liked this poem) [Re: 1999]I enjoyed your stuff quite a bit... Particularly enjoyed the Pannin\' fer Rhymes bit.
As far as where good poetry can be found online, well, it\'s pretty rare. Honestly, your site is one of the first I\'ve seen.Naughty boy! Boy, was this a fun one to read! [Re: Psychiatree (a satire in verse)] Verrey Nice. [Re: Accident]Lovely love poem. [Re: Beloved] great work on this...have you written the music? [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] an absolutely finely designed and beautiful love poem! good, unobvious rhyme too, no small feat. [Re: Beloved]Having had six books published and spending weeks and weeks searching various web sites (most of it bad poetry) it was a pleasure to find arcanum cafe and read some good stuff.
I believe Members of the Jury...was your best effortI have visited your sight quite often and am continually inspired by your poetic works on whole.
Beyond literary readings, journal and \'zine publication (electronic or print) as well as a current honours undergraduate degree in English Lit. and Creative writing with the prospective opportunity to attend the Humber School of Writing this coming July, I would like you to know that I do indeed admire your work from a critical as well as artistic standpoint.Great poem you posted in the ng.....one of the best of yours I\'ve read.for some reason that was pretty cool.. I mean I dunno what about it , but something caught my attention (that\'s purdy hard to do) .. I likes. [Re: Psychiatree] I can hear this piece being said by a cracked out band with a buncha riffs cutting over much of the words... if that makes any sense... fast tempo I believe [Re: Psychiatree]What struck me about your poetry was its power. The power of a man who has explored many spaces. A man of this earth. And yet it is shot all through with spirituality.I liked your poem I hit your link this morning and your page is beautiful! You can bet I\'ll be exploring it further! Gotta get ready for work now though. I did browse the miku ... Good, nourishing work!Way to go, Kevin...(the new guru!)!!!!!!!!!! Perfect.Beautiful Kevin! It\'s beautiful. That was wonderful.Very cool. Beautiful! Moving and all... Thanks.Very aesthetic! Awesome, Kevin!That was very beautiful, Kevin. Very Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That\'s very, very nice, Kevin. Thank you very much! Romantic this one, with its lavish and extravagant sense of itself. Nicely done. Fade to grey to green and shade in between, most colorful and exciting the hues of passion that spin out and beyond. [Re: Beside You] Beautiful website Kevin! I\'m bookmarking it and sending the address to all of my network.Man, you have got some awesome poetry - my favorites were nutshell and seraphim
You have a great talent... I have read a few other poem pages on the web but I must say I like yours the best ... keep up the writingVery nice poem, I like it.Another classic. Wonderful! Thank you very much! [Re: Last Will]I just read your \"Last Will\". I wanted to tell you that I am proud to know such a rabble-rouser...-)
Nice concept for a poem. I wished I had thought of it.a tour de force, unforced! [Re: Razzmatazz]Bravo! [Re: Razzmatazz] Wonderful!!! [Re: Razzmatazz]Poet, how you rhyme with ease.
Please do not take offense
at this poorman\'s flattery,
\'tho rhyme is new as fresh-churned
cheese, and alliteration walks
the road of time, so much that
passes now for free
is merely so much flatulence.

Thanks, I\'ll have a chaw of my mixed metaphor now and doff my Pioneer Seed floppy hat to you. [Re: Razzmatazz]

This isn\'t easily done-- why you don\'t see many of them on poetry sites. The free wheel rolls faster down hill, than a rhymer rolling one up.
This poem is a defense for rhyme-- not unlike Samuel Daniel\'s defense of the art against Campion\'s claims that rhyme too jackets the poet, that \"it enforceth a man oftentimes to abjure his matter, and extends a short conceit beyond all bounds of grace.\"
Count me as one of rhyme\'s defenders too.
I think this poem very good. [Re: Razzmatazz]Just a note to say I very much enjoyed your poem \'Razzmatazz\'Amen [Re: Last Will] Great poem, Kevin! I got chills.Love this, Kevin. [Re: I am not your teacher...]I thought your poetry was really good, especially liked \"Members of the Jury...\".I like this. Nicely done. ABSOLUTELY adored \"Beside You\" as a particularly clever poem, deeper than it looks at first value!!!Kevin is perfectly capable of enigmatic (and deliciously so ;) [Re: I am not your teacher...]Nice page of love poemsI went by your homepage and read a few of your poems. You\'re very good ... I guess you sort of knew that already.I visited your site and loved it. I think it\'s really aesthetic and simple. Nice. Impressive. :o)Absolutely loved your poetry. I haven\'t read all yet.. I\'ll be back. Loved \"I am,\" and \"Tao\". You obviously have a way with words.I love this! Did you write it? It\'s about the most clever use of words I have seen, ever. \"Premeditated meter\"!! That is terrific! [Re: Members of the Jury...]What beautiful words you have written here. The poem you sent was exquisite! [Re: Aurora Angelis]My favorites: Spirit-essence, Angelness, I am and O Magi. My, you are talented! What an absolutely visually stunning site! Really really great! I\'m sure I\'ll be here for quite awhile enjoying all this site has to offer! Great job! Kevin, your site is very lovely. You have taken such care in your graphics and layout. Wonderful! ... I enjoyed your writing, and you\'re right, our \"I Am\" poems are so very similar. So where were we in another life, eh?Did you write Angelness? ... I think it is beautiful. Actually, I read the poem in a Scottish brogue. I thought it most ingenious with the way it flowed that way and challenged me to puzzle it out.

I like a poem with a ramrod message.Call me a snob, but I haven\'t much cared for the poetry that I\'ve seen - quite the contrary. Yours, though, was an exception.I do so love your poetry. It has a whisper of Shakespeare and a hint of the old Druid flame, but it comes from you, that is apparent.I do enjoy your poetry. You\'re quite good.I write some poetry as well, and I read others\', but there is not too much of what I read that I enjoy. I enjoy yours, and I understand it.Bravo...

Great, just great. The Critical Mass AwardVery nice. wow! very clever. meter and rhyme scheme really added to the levity of the poem. I found myself snickering in a couple of places.Very elegant!!! Great poemYour poetry, if you will forgive my evaluation, is not only aesthetic and highly impinging communication with emotional impact - it is clever and intelligent. This is a quality that I also appreciate and find very stimulating... It is [Re: Psychiatree]...satire (and quite brilliant in my opinion - absolutely cuttingly hilarious!):-)))))))) Ouch! Very strong! I think it says it all!I just visited and read and laughed my head off. I REALLY enjoyed your page, and your poetry. Well done!

Please write more like them, if you get the inspiration! They are appreciated, and I know others would appreciate them too, if not everyone.
After I read your poems, I thought you should publish a book of poetry. Have you? Will you? I\'d buy it!

[Re: Aurora Angelis] ... beautiful meter and subtle images are .... oh, I don\'t know ... Taylorian ... very nice piece.I generally don\'t like poetry. In fact, I don\'t even read it.

ThanksAw Kevin..that\'s great - you got me!:) I liked this piece a lot. Really well- written, and it flows beautifully. I really like poems like this... Ones that I can understand.

I like your poems there really good I love your poems.

You have the gift of expressing all that others feel within and I thank you and encourage you to continue ...May you keep being inspired and continue with your gift... Would you mind if I added your angel poem to my poetry site? I love your site, the visual tranquility of these pages in contrast with the visceral impact of your words, or more accurately your voice. rising out of this quiet design, livid & ragged then suddenly whispering & whimsical & of course there\\\'s that sarcasm, right at the edge... your paradoxes are excellent, almost balanced between the existential extremes, as is necessary for poetry, at least the way I see it. I love your site, have I mentioned that? ...your site is incredible... my coffee is now tepid... the laundry in the dryer is probably wrinkled... I\\\'m still behind the screen when I should be out feeding the hungry or volunteering at the hospital.. but I\\\'m here, and I\\\'m happy... *laughs* I checked out your page, and I really enjoyed your poems.

I love the way you put the words together with such feeling. I loved your birthday poem. It was really funny! I just have to say damn I like it Your poem was beautiful!!!! [Re: Birthday Poem] there were some pieces of poetry that caught my fancy/eye. VERY good stuff man, keep up the good work. Those are really good poems.

Thank you ... I enjoyed your work. Wow, those were great poems. Thanx - I really enjoyed and trust there will be many more in the future.O Magi speaks to a pain I\\\'ve not known, but have glimpsed. Thank you for the... chance to read and enjoy your poetry. It is beautiful and reminded me of some the feelings and emotions that I have been trying to find again. Relationships are hard, but the right words can put everything in focus. Please continue to write the words that touch souls and moves mountains.I really enjoyed your poems. I must say that you have some definite talent I enjoyed all the pomes As I was reading \\\"Untitled (for a Reason),\\\" I began to think of just how easily the human mind bends, like clay to the sculptor. We teach ourselves to fight and not to hurt, and perhaps we need to bleed a little bit. I think this particular poem emphasizes the intensity that one gains in basic independent thinking. I checked out a few of the poems on your site. They are very impressive. I like your poems a lot. I enjoyed your poetry very much. What inspires you? Is it personal events or observation? I will guess more of the personal event is in your words. Your work flows very nicely... much like a gently stream. I hope to be invited, again, to dance through your thoughts. Well it is me again. I just finished another page of your work. I was mesmerized. Thank you for sharing your work. I have truly enjoyed it. I\\\'ve enjoyed reading your poetry on the arcanum site. Know what, I\\\'m going to save it, to read again at leisure. I\\\'ve a personal preference for work that is structured, not necessarily by rhyme and rhythm, but work that shows evidence that the words have been thought over, carefully selected for emphasis, sound, alliteration, etc. I seem to read so much that just seems like an outpouring of emotion, which, however valid and genuine, fails to impact because of lack of thought and discrimination. Thanks for this. I find it highly entertainingBy the way, I don\\\'t know if you know this, but you were posting poetry a year or so ago and this is what really revitalized ME as a poet. There was something about your poetry that I really liked and I started writing again, which I hadn\\\'t done for about 25 years. I just wanted to thank you for that. I did read a few of your poems and enjoyed them very much. Have you ever thought of publishing any of them? There is a lot of crappy \\\"poetry\\\" out there... yours is not. It was really interesting to read. I visited your page, and I was impressed with the look and feel. It has a very professional look, and also does a good job with the art. Nice art. I enjoyed your poems and applaud the courage and tenacity it must have taken to get them there.The poem is lovely. Just wanted to say THANKS. It made my birthday special. [Re: Birthday Poem]Me gustó mucho el poema. [Re: Birthday Poem] That was a great poem I am really glad I found your page. They were very good poems. What a gorgeous little website! Well done! I loved the poetry - you sent me the URL and I stopped by, loved them so much that I decided to put them up on my site as soon as possible. [Re: Linkware] The poem was very nice, it made me smile! [Re: Birthday Poem] I read a few of your poems - they are absolutely beautiful. You must have a large amount of passion just welling up inside of you for something so powerful to come out in such a poetic manner. I wish I could write poems just as well as you... You don\\\'t know what it means to me to read poems that I can actually relate to. I really enjoyed reading your poems....they really made me think of how deep someone\\\'s love can be...I hope to find someone to share these lovely poems with..keep up this wonderful work.. Thank you so much for... your poems, they were very beautiful. You are very talented. you are the coolest!! it helped make my 16th birthday just that much better!! you poem was super cool and made me smile!!! totally cool I like the poetry page a lot. Do you mean that those great poetry are written by u? Whoa!!! In future, if u have any new pieces... please share them with meYou are a very talented poet and I enjoyed your poetry very much. We have another poet who comes down from time to time, name of Kevin Taylor, the drive-by poet. Every now and then a rock comes through the cafe window with a piece of paper tied around it. That\\\'s Kev. Don\\\'t hold your breath, and don\\\'t wait up late, you never know when he\\\'ll drop in, uh, drive by. What a lovely poem! It\\\'s so whimsical and cheery--just my style! ... Did you just write it recently? I\\\'m going to print it out and share it with my friends! [Re: Birthday Poem] ...the birthday poem!!! It was beautiful! ... Beautiful words of inspiration :) Your girlfriend/wife/lover or whoever must adore you!! Kevin Taylor, the link to your poetry is the best birthday gift! Thank you very, very much. My favorite of all (word person that I am) must be these four lines:

And as the sun drew from its sliver
Silver skirted seas of slate
That day that God had twice divided
Saw her shadowed sun too late

Beautiful on many levels.

Hurray, hazuzas, applause, noisemakers going. [Re: Razzmatazz]I viewed your page long enough, that my coffee got cold, my feet slowly made there way off the floor and up, and my timer BUZZED after about three hours. Your poetry is fabulous and the manner in which you present yourself through the creativity of this site is brilliant.I love your poetry. I think we tend to think alike where love is concerned but you word yours much better than mine. Keep writing, it\\\'s beautiful...for some reason I started with The Firefly Tales,, It was dark out when I read it, I was on the sea, and in the storm, I felt sorrow, and fear, Beyond climbing away from the darkness, I was inspired and with peace, upon reading Angelness, I will keep reading them for a while, You are very serious and yet versatile, Always a journey, always a ride.you are a great writer I enjoyed your poetry very much.Enjoyed reading your poetry...insightful & thoughtful.

I loved the dialect :) [check earlier] I really enjoyed some of your poemsGreat poetry...! excellent poetryWow. Wow, and more wow! Kevin, this page is so wonderful! These pages, I should say. The words are beyond incredible. I love the fact that you read some of them, and thoroughly enjoyed listening to your voice. So much of a poem is personal, and it\\\'s unique to be able to hear the author\\\'s point of view. Everything is faultless, and I can offer no suggestion other than that you should keep writing until the day you die. You are incredibly talented.I have truly enjoyed reading your poetry... I read poetry on a frequent basis, I suppose, and I read a lot of poetry published online. Yours has struck a familiar chord upon reading, though... I will be back to read more; it touches something personal inside. I really like \\\"Angelness\\\" and I admire the way you are not afraid of writing what isn\\\'t expected. That element is what gives beauty to your work.That got both [of us] laughing out loud! [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]Good poem there, mate [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]Cute!!! :):) [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father]May I have your permission to share this with a ... business associate and friend?

I\\\'m so critical of poetry, usually, unless it really speaks to me personally I have a really hard time reading it. Yours speaks to me personally, and it\\\'s so smooth and beautiful, too. High communication and high aesthetics.your poetry has old world charm but \\\"Pageant Of Dawn\\\" is my fav by far this has a feel of life of death of cold but waiting for the sun to come and make you warm once again which the sun can be compared to love in many ways this poem is like a love poem of the night and of the day very lovely like the poet\\\'s words that dance before the readers eyes... and one more thing your layout of your page is beautiful like being in a magic garden just as the first morning star wakes in the pink sky Good stuff! I\\\'m no expert but I tink yive captured yer Irish brogue.

Know what, I\\\'m going to save it, to read again at leisure. I\\\'ve a personal preference for work that is structured, not necessarily by rhyme and rhythm, but work that shows evidence that the words have been thought over, carefully selected for emphasis, sound, alliteration, etc. I seem to read so much that just seems like an outpouring of emotion, which, however valid and genuine, fails to impact because of lack of thought and discrimination. Thanks for this. I find it highly entertainingYou have won the Crazyboy Hot site of the week. [April 20th, 1999]I did enjoy your poetry immensely.You are a poet Kev. and that\\\'s the simple truth.
That is the truth....very poignant.. [Re: Veni vidi lamentari] I just finished another page of your work. I was mesmerized.In Tiger words... Grreeaaattt! Love the \\\"can\\\'t be hanged twice\\\" analogy. Very Clever! and your use of the vernacular is very effective. It gives a strong sense of character. and the rhymes scheme and slant rhymes, o, me o my... O and the whimsy.... [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]Good God man!
You must be a lyric archaeologist.
You have unearthed the root of all do-wop! [Re: Joy of Kitchen]I truly enjoyed your Black Verse. Especially \\\"How to write a poem\\\". And yes, \\\"Sometime...\\\" The last 3 lines made me laugh. I liked the humor in the end. I really loved the way you handled this poem. Goofy dialects can (and VERY often do) end in such atrocious disasters. Also, it\\\'s very hard to write a decent get-the-hell-off-my-back poem without looking like a whining little wuss. You\\\'ve overcome so many pit traps in only three stanzas!!!!!! I envy you. [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I liked this, Kevin. It\\\'s very wry and the line breaks are wonderful. [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I can\\\'t offer critique, but I think you\\\'ve done a good job here. I enjoyed it. Like the way you ended this as well! Nice work [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]Your work reminds me of Taoist writings I have studied. [Some] poetry is meant to shock and cause dissension.... yours is peaceful and calm and has much more feeling... Yours is meant for caring adults (of all ages). Thank you for sharing.As I was reading \\\"Untitled (for a Reason),\\\" I began to think of just how easily the human mind bends, like clay to the sculptor. We teach ourselves to fight and not to hurt, and perhaps we need to bleed a little bit. I think this particular poem emphasizes the intensity that one gains in basic independent thinking... Thank you - I will come again and again.I love the layout of your pages...so elegant and understated! ... I enjoyed reading your work!Wow! I had never imagined that something like this could be done. Too cool. [Re: Joy of Kitchen] I love everything I\\\'ve read so far.WOW A+ [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] Really liked this Kevin! :) [Re: Spare me the lecture, Father...]I love the galloping rhythm of your poem that keeps me moving! [Re: The psychiatric doctor...]Lovely. Just absolutely stunning. I must say that I am very surprised indeed. You\\\'re not a *girl*, nor a *teen*, nor *depressed* nor a *Tori Amos* quoter. I am very, *very* pleased. I enjoy learning from those with actual *life experience* and wisdom. Which you definitely have. I loved the life story - the audio idea is just great. The story of you and your wife was just incredible and so dramatic and romantic. I Also loved the poetry - incandescent was just, . . . wow. Well, I shall leave now, I don\\\'t like rambling on in a groupie-esque fashion... ::smile:: I will return.Just wanted to say that I REALLY love \\\"Beside You\\\"..... you write very expressively and beautifullyI really enjoyed your poems. Forgive me, your poetry is lovely, but I feel I must apologize in advance for getting the most enjoyment out of your \\\"Irish Ditty\\\": I chuckled a great deal, and I do like to chuckle.You have a beautiful homepage and I love the poetry. I think \\\"If Every Man Were God\\\" is my favorite.You have a great talent for poetry, and I appreciate the simplicity and honesty of your art. Keep up the great work, and congratulations.I have made a return visit to your incredible site and read most of your poetry and it is truly of immeasurable excellence.I have enjoyed many hours at your site. It is one of my favorites.VERY cool! [Re: Accident] Made me smile.
Your other one, about the gypsy souls, made me cry.
Very excellent.This is great! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] AMAZING! I love it! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]:):) Great poem! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]You are amazing Kevin. ...and you continue to write things I read. [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]I enjoyed that! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]Cool poem! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] Amazingly beautiful. What else can I say? Please keep up the unique work \\\"Excellence is the final step for success\\\" You, my friend are damn near close. Your webpage is one of the best out there. ...What a wonderful website, filled with good design and thought-provoking poetry. Thank you Dear god, this site is beautiful... in so many glorious ways. Captivating, lovely, and delightful.
Bravo, friend. BravoOk, You have an awesome talent for writing. I have only been writing for about 3 years and love when poetry isn\\\'t modern!!! and yours is definitely not [written in the] modern way of writing. Love the use of words etc..GREAT JOB!beautiful works here, the Irish ditty was great, light, caring, free worksI\\\'ve been to your site before and like always your site is pure excellence. It looks like a classic. The poetry is so unique, that sometimes I feel like [I am] reading from a 16th century poet. Not to say that you\\\'re old :)I\\\'ve found myself often returning to your page for its incredible content and passionate approach... you inspire my writing I must say...I love the poems. They\\\'re unique and special
I was touched by the word\\\'s of your poetry.
I wanted to know, have you always had a poets heart? ...
Something you wrote made me pull out a few of my journals and start to write again.Hey! This is one \\\'heck of a\\\' cool poetry site!... would it be okay if I were to link your site at mine?I love your poetry web siteMy first encounter with a site of such genuine reading - look forward for moreI love that! [Re: 1999]Whoa dude, cool poem, that bit of work bounced round nicely in my head, made it a pleasant read! If you keep writing this stuff, I\\\'ll keep readin it dude! Its very good...... [Re: I am not your teacher...]Liked this one Kevin [Re: Beloved] Very nice Kevin! [Re: Beloved]I adored this... I enjoyed the flow and the enchantment so much, I read it four times. [Re: Razzmatazz] this is sweet.. [Re: Between 16s]Quite entertaining, thanks! [Re: Pannin\\\' fer Rhymes]I reckin\\\' this is one of the best thangs from you I ever read. Yep. [Re: Pannin\\\' fer Rhymes]Excellent rhyme scheme, lively meter, great execution. [Re: Stone Age]I like this one, it rings so true. [Re: Razzmatazz]Great piece of work! I picked up a beat the first verse and a tune the second. Pat yourself on the back! [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]I LOVE this poem! I am really enjoying reading your work [Re: Beloved]loved your poem!!!!
it\\\'s one of those you have to read under your breath to hear your tongue trip down the words like water down a rocky stream. [Re: Razzmatazz]I luv it. [Re: 1999]I like it a lot, kind of a cross between Shel Silverstein, Lewis Carroll, and the poems in Calvin and Hobbes :^>
It\\\'s fun, I\\\'m gonna save it. Re: Psychiatree]Wow! I\\\'m kinda\\\' at a loss to how I should comment on this...needless to say I loved it. It just came from a world of imagination so far away I\\\'m not sure I\\\'d be able to get anywhere near it. It was like one long mind-expanding ride through another world which I suppose is exactly what art is meant to be. Or it was just funny. [Re: Ripple-tide]wow... very good. [Re: Razzmatazz]er... interesting, to say the least [Re: Raggy Boney Souls]Wow, over
whelming
(I really liked this poem) [Re: 1999]I enjoyed your stuff quite a bit... Particularly enjoyed the Pannin\\\' fer Rhymes bit.
As far as where good poetry can be found online, well, it\\\'s pretty rare. Honestly, your site is one of the first I\\\'ve seen.Naughty boy! Boy, was this a fun one to read! [Re: Psychiatree (a satire in verse)] Verrey Nice. [Re: Accident]Lovely love poem. [Re: Beloved] great work on this...have you written the music? [Re: Raggy Boney Souls] an absolutely finely designed and beautiful love poem! good, unobvious rhyme too, no small feat. [Re: Beloved]Having had six books published and spending weeks and weeks searching various web sites (most of it bad poetry) it was a pleasure to find arcanum cafe and read some good stuff.
I believe Members of the Jury...was your best effortI have visited your sight quite often and am continually inspired by your poetic works on whole.
Beyond literary readings, journal and \\\'zine publication (electronic or print) as well as a current honours undergraduate degree in English Lit. and Creative writing with the prospective opportunity to attend the Humber School of Writing this coming July, I would like you to know that I do indeed admire your work from a critical as well as artistic standpoint.Great poem you posted in the ng.....one of the best of yours I\\\'ve read.for some reason that was pretty cool.. I mean I dunno what about it , but something caught my attention (that\\\'s purdy hard to do) .. I likes. [Re: Psychiatree] I can hear this piece being said by a cracked out band with a buncha riffs cutting over much of the words... if that makes any sense... fast tempo I believe [Re: Psychiatree]What struck me about your poetry was its power. The power of a man who has explored many spaces. A man of this earth. And yet it is shot all through with spirituality.I liked your poem I hit your link this morning and your page is beautiful! You can bet I\\\'ll be exploring it further! Gotta get ready for work now though. I did browse the miku ... Good, nourishing work!Way to go, Kevin...(the new guru!)!!!!!!!!!! Perfect.Beautiful Kevin! It\\\'s beautiful. That was wonderful.Very cool. Beautiful! Moving and all... Thanks.Very aesthetic! Awesome, Kevin!That was very beautiful, Kevin. Very Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That\\\'s very, very nice, Kevin. Thank you very much! Romantic this one, with its lavish and extravagant sense of itself. Nicely done. Fade to grey to green and shade in between, most colorful and exciting the hues of passion that spin out and beyond. [Re: Beside You] Beautiful website Kevin! I\\\'m bookmarking it and sending the address to all of my network.Man, you have got some awesome poetry - my favorites were nutshell and seraphim
You have a great talent... I have read a few other poem pages on the web but I must say I like yours the best ... keep up the writingVery nice poem, I like it.Another classic. Wonderful! Thank you very much! [Re: Last Will]I just read your \\\"Last Will\\\". I wanted to tell you that I am proud to know such a rabble-rouser...-)
Nice concept for a poem. I wished I had thought of it.a tour de force, unforced! [Re: Razzmatazz]Bravo! [Re: Razzmatazz] Wonderful!!! [Re: Razzmatazz]Poet, how you rhyme with ease.
Please do not take offense
at this poorman\\\'s flattery,
\\\'tho rhyme is new as fresh-churned
cheese, and alliteration walks
the road of time, so much that
passes now for free
is merely so much flatulence.

Thanks, I\\\'ll have a chaw of my mixed metaphor now and doff my Pioneer Seed floppy hat to you. [Re: Razzmatazz]

This isn\\\'t easily done-- why you don\\\'t see many of them on poetry sites. The free wheel rolls faster down hill, than a rhymer rolling one up.
This poem is a defense for rhyme-- not unlike Samuel Daniel\\\'s defense of the art against Campion\\\'s claims that rhyme too jackets the poet, that \\\"it enforceth a man oftentimes to abjure his matter, and extends a short conceit beyond all bounds of grace.\\\"
Count me as one of rhyme\\\'s defenders too.
I think this poem very good. [Re: Razzmatazz]Just a note to say I very much enjoyed your poem \\\'Razzmatazz\\\'Amen [Re: Last Will] Great poem, Kevin! I got chills.Love this, Kevin. [Re: I am not your teacher...]I thought your poetry was really good, especially liked \\\"Members of the Jury...\\\".I like this. Nicely done. ABSOLUTELY adored \\\"Beside You\\\" as a particularly clever poem, deeper than it looks at first value!!!Kevin is perfectly capable of enigmatic (and deliciously so ;) [Re: I am not your teacher...]Nice page of love poemsI went by your homepage and read a few of your poems. You\\\'re very good ... I guess you sort of knew that already.I visited your site and loved it. I think it\\\'s really aesthetic and simple. Nice. Impressive. :o)Absolutely loved your poetry. I haven\\\'t read all yet.. I\\\'ll be back. Loved \\\"I am,\\\" and \\\"Tao\\\". You obviously have a way with words.I love this! Did you write it? It\\\'s about the most clever use of words I have seen, ever. \\\"Premeditated meter\\\"!! That is terrific! [Re: Members of the Jury...]What beautiful words you have written here. The poem you sent was exquisite! [Re: Aurora Angelis]My favorites: Spirit-essence, Angelness, I am and O Magi. My, you are talented! What an absolutely visually stunning site! Really really great! I\\\'m sure I\\\'ll be here for quite awhile enjoying all this site has to offer! Great job! Kevin, your site is very lovely. You have taken such care in your graphics and layout. Wonderful! ... I enjoyed your writing, and you\\\'re right, our \\\"I Am\\\" poems are so very similar. So where were we in another life, eh?Did you write Angelness? ... I think it is beautiful. Actually, I read the poem in a Scottish brogue. I thought it most ingenious with the way it flowed that way and challenged me to puzzle it out.

I like a poem with a ramrod message.Call me a snob, but I haven\\\'t much cared for the poetry that I\\\'ve seen - quite the contrary. Yours, though, was an exception.I do so love your poetry.

Great poemYour poetry, if you will forgive my evaluation, is not only aesthetic and highly impinging communication with emotional impact - it is clever and intelligent. This is a quality that I also appreciate and find very stimulating... It is [Re: Psychiatree]...satire (and quite brilliant in my opinion - absolutely cuttingly hilarious!):-)))))))) Ouch!
