Hi LP,
Have just been back to read another of your poems - Rain, Isolation, Self Analysis - and will certainly be returning for a second read - there is much to absorb in this thoughtfully composed, honest and revealing write. Jim Hogg was right about your writing - it is superb! I think I could learn a lot from the way you craft your poems. The language, structure, content and imagery combine to produce writing that is impactful, absorbing, original and has an internal music that resounds.
Back to read more later...

One of the most sincere and disciplined writers on Poemhunter. I couldn't claim to appreciate everything Lamont has written but there is usually a standard maintained whereby I have been interested in looking at new compositions -where that was appropriate- or re-visiting certain pieces...'Rain... Isolation', 'American Killers...', for example. I have always enjoyed the care with which Lamont presents work and the concentration on word selection and punctuation.Such things may seem to be obvious features to notice in a poem but Lamont's writing, more often than not, stands out in this regard; the focus and application.
In fairness, over the course of 3 years, I have thrown a few barbs Lamont's way too. To his great credit, Lamont has, most often, responded with dignity and a certain amount of grace. Such a response has only affirmed my initial belief that Lamont Palmer is a serious writer, with a mind set upon perfection of expression. I cannot think of a quality more transparently admirable than that. |
