As to clubbed words I thought they were deliberate for an effect and then your poem also said so (They comeand getstruck atmythroat) . Any way the subtlety of the piece is striking. But I may be wrong. This type is not my genre, and as an outsider I can only comment. But I really liked the ending.

MY BRAIN MUST BE ROTTING! ! ha ha (NOT!) i completely forgot i'd read this (maybe not totally forgotten) , and noticed in a comment response from Bharati, as i was looking over the poem comments, that i HAD commented already! ! ! not only THAT, but i'd also said i'd use this poem in my/our March 2018 showcase of poems! ! i did some checking and found it in the showcase, with spaces between words. :) bri

do you mean the title isn't even meant to be clubbed? ? ? i like the title as it is here, but i DID WONDER about much of the rest. i, too, have had such problems, but not so seriously as you seem to have had! ! i suggest that the word you want to use is clumped, BUT maybe PH should be CLUBBED if they are responsible! ! !

Thank you Bri Edwards for reading and commenting on this poem.The title of the poem after being clubbed together looks like a new English word and may attract more readers out of curiosity.

It happens with me when I write a poem in Urdu script. I don't know why it happens so. But I understood your poem. It's a wonderful poem.

PH can find more ways to mess with us than I ever imagined. This one hasn't happened to me but I do wonder if this is an artifact from a typing style [New Romans vs Symbol etc] that PH suddenly isn't recognizing. But don't worry I'll split those words apart- - - -] before dark! when they fall / They fall like poems, / On a blank paper.10++++++++++

They come and get struck at my throat, Then they squeeze and dissolve And come through my eyes And shine at a corner Like a drop of tear, You know, when they fall They fall like poems, On a blank paper.

Truly luminous writing here, Bharati. I love the simplicity of the setting which artfully transforms into the complexity of life and art itself. There is so much story in us all, and poets have the great privilege of transforming the stories of life into art. Your work so graciously and artistically accomplishes this.

do you want the first line of the poem to begin with How or My? ? ? i wasn't sure if the title wording is supposed to be repeated as the first line, with the second line several line spaces farther down. ? ? ? for the showcase, i'll use the first line as it now appears on this page, like this: How about writing a story LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT IT OTHERWISE. ;) bri :)

How much Harry Potter sales? ...i THINK this means how much are Harry Potter sales? aka: how much money HP books and movies earn for the writer etc.? i like the way your child thinks! ! MONEY! ! /// drop of tear, ....normally i'd use teardrop, but you are the poet! a drop of tear is good. /// thousand and thousand words, ....i, bri, would type thousands and thousands of words (to be continued) ............

i suggest (for future readers' enlightenment) that YOU type a Poet's Note's saying that YOU did NOT leave out spaces between words! ! ! i had to dig into the previous comments and your responses to find out that you tried to edit the spaces 'back in' but PH did not cooperate. i have, in the last month or so, had spaces disappear between sentence-ending punctuation and sentence-starting words, but not between words. (to be continued) ..... bri: (
