Clever PEN.

Definitely a new way of lookin' at things, nice poem!

Joshua J. Walsh

I enjoyed how you stay true to yourself throughout the poem. I especially enjoyed the part you said. "Who the hell likes a caged dog? one thing's for sure. The dog doesn't."

I love the similes and personification in this poem....

Visceral. Confrssional. Grounded. Inspirational, the
"Pouring herself..."

Sadhia

Very seductive.

Dan Turner

Lots of thoughtful lines in this one. Good job.

I liked the image of pouring like a glass of wine but the next line (pounding) didn't work for me.

At first I thought this was a poem about white privilege, because of the title, and the cover picture, but now I'm guessing it's about death, and thee other side for the tunnel after living with a woman? But I liked it. I can be tamed though. I'd do whatever a girl tells me. "Lick here," "lick there," "lick everywhere." I guess that's why I'm single. I'm too dependent on their commands. L.O.L.

I like this one! It makes me think of John Wilmot (Earl of Rochester)!!!!

En Raiter

Very true no one likes a caged dog, especially the dog. I dug that line, but sorta related question is self mastery a cage?

Nice piece well done!

Feng Li'29

Nice poem, I really like it

Origins and Tall Tales

"It was February, and cold; real cold like her" -simply beautiful! Great writing and a great poem! Also, thank you for the comment!

Criss Sole

Great metaphors.
I loved how you were able to describe a simple, everyday situation in such an exotic, and even erotic way.
Beautifully written!

I love the figurative language and vivid descriptions in this poem, especially the metaphor and symbolism of the "cage dog" that represents all of us who have been boxed in and want freedom in order to make a difference in society at large. Thank you for sharing and I will definitely read more of your works of art.

I like this one. The imagery is consistent and obvious to the reader like it should be.

Your writing is very sultry. Like some of mine - the perspective though is different. I can definitely tell your poems were written by a man. I enjoyed that. Mine is obviously from a woman’s perspective.
