I have no idea if "thrums" is a real verb. I've never heard it before. If you've made it up, it's brilliant. If not, you've heroically rescued it from oblivion.
But if you have coined this, it would pay more people to do this. Where conventional language isn't up to the task or in some way just doesn't grasp the moment that a poem has as its aim, a new vocabulary needs to enter the scene, and poetry is perfect for that.
Your poetry is nailing it all - imagery, mood, reflection. There's greatness emerging here!
This poem is an example of why you are one of the few poets that I "get". Your photos, phrasing (crickets loop a dark song) make me feel something hard to describe. Maybe fulfilled in some weird way...
HOLY SHIT WHAT!? What a fucking incredible poem!!! Pardon my language but WOW that hits deep and had I heard you read this at an open mic I'd be on my feet yelling in solidarity (we go a bit beyond snaps around here lol) --- THANK YOU
A dark song being used as a barge for the mind, that's very deep and intriguing. I like it!
💯
Evocative, with stillness.

Yes, very beautiful and melancholy. My favorite kind of poetry. Almost Pushkinesque.
I love your photos!

Dude! Many thanks for this ❤️
Nice. Very evocative. Really brings that photo to life. Thanks to @Tesstamona for letting me know about this poem.

I'm a Catholic revert. Back with the Church after a long time away. I enjoy reading one of your poems after doing my Cathechism in a year lesson.
It's been awhile since I've read poetry regularly.
I'm grateful for your writing.
