Question: Would you comment on this poem, my first nonet!?
Poetry
by C!.S!. Scotkin


Hold your breath as words, those shooting stars
fall ever closer to your mind
white hot signal flares for all
these streaking brilliant ones
flashing through our minds
explode old thoughts
with beauty
and new
truth!.

Thanks C!.S Scotkin!

I had never heard of a "Nonet" before! so thanks for this !.!.
it was in a word stuck-on-my-mind beautiful! ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Nonet is not my favorite poetic form, but it does allow for a coherent image!. I like the metaphor of words as 'shooting stars!." I believe that 'fall' does not describe exactly what a meteor does!. 'Aim' or 'rush' would probably describe the event more precisely, especially since you then use words like 'flashing' and 'explode!.'Www@QuestionHome@Com

Indeed, I do like it! I can see why it is called a no-net, because by the time you reach the end there is nothing left!. Your imagination in the metaphor or words and stars, compared all the way through the poem is excellent!.tWww@QuestionHome@Com
