The House Of Many Rooms Comments

Your poems are like psychological thrillers. The eyes and ears become wide opened. I especially like this poem because I once had a dream about being chased by a hybrid (half man, half monster) in a big house with many interconnecting rooms.

Such a thrilling poem! i leved in such a house where Floors creak even when a cat pads. It is our common native house - cause earlier all the ancsestors lived like this!

I also wrote a poem on my old house. I decided to post mine after reading yours... They're different!

Your poem made me smile. I live in an old house. I feel the energy and presence of generations long lost; and when it's windy (and sometimes when it's not) the darned chimney smells of stale ash, which permeates the living room...glad you've kept at the writing!

...........after reading this write.... I will never wish to sleep in a house of many rooms ever again....it was a little unnerving with the knives flashing....you know how to put the scare in your poems....where is the love? .....couldn't find it in this write.....still I enjoyed every line and loved reading the poet's notes....

Reminded me of Casa Loma in Toronto but perhaps I mention it over your head, you may not have been there. Still, it also reminds me of a song of years ago: This Old House. Then again, in my: Sonnet Beyond Love, those rooms were caverns.Again speaking of pronouns, have you read my teaching aid – Nouns - Adeline

This is brilliant! ~ I love the use of someone here, and pointing out that someone could be anyone and so its us, readers. Most people just say you. So I love this idea of giving new awareness to the word someone. I found the most impacting lines to be Someone could choke on nothing there. But someone is asleep, Pure genius! Also I'm curious about what the house of many rooms is a representation of, though I have a couple of ideas. Sleeping seems to be symbolism for being unaware of ones surroundings. Still, I'm not sure I'd want to be awake there lol.
