what an amazing piece of art at http://www.bluesuburbia.com/

Nice find.....hard on system resources though

The verbal aspect of the poetry is not that impressive when taken by itself--rather trite and cliched, to be honest. But the visual and aural poetry... stunning. I agree: an amazing piece of art.

For example, I loved the room with the window and the rose on the table. If you mouse over the letters of the poem that pops up, they all fall off the page... except for four that spell a different word. The words of the poem itself were forgettable, but the way it was presented was fascinating. Shows that, ultimately, poetry is not about words, it's about the emotions and feelings that are stirred in the one who experiences the poetry. I quickly lost sight of the words and got lost in the world of imagery. In that regard, this is excellent poetry.
