Origami

gorgeous,

WOW I really liked this :0)

this is so incredible .. brilliant metaphor xx

There are a few people out there, who would LOVE to share a quiet sip with you… so you forget about all those little cuts for an hour or two :)

Brilliant Jess

excellent metaphor, brilliant opening.

Jess, if you were origami, you’d fold in to a beautiful tulip! :D
Great work!

The opening is indeed so wonderful. I love that strong short first sentence especially. This is a darling little folded up thing, and I am going to put it in my pocket. xx

Beautiful piece – I’ll hold this (or is that fold this) in my head and keep it with me for inspiration :)

Great metaphor at the centre of all this, and it’s not mushy like papier mache at all

Brilliant, Jess…..a stunning metaphor….

XOXO

Very good Jess. I’ve never come across that metaphor before and it works so well.

Absolutely stunning, a very thought provoking metaphor!

Oh my god Jess you are a master at weaving words. Thank you for sharing your tapestries with us!

beautiful, gorgeous girl. I love how your brain tells stories xoxox

I love your metaphors..

wow! you have the gift of being able to tell stories with words that make pictures. making sense of what is inside my head and trying to convey it to the rest of the world is a mission! love it!

The most wonderful and expressive poem I read lately

and I think / I’m able to tend / to the tiny paper cuts / on my fingers / all by myself.

This is so delicate and beautiful, yet so infused with strength and joy, that I’m suprised you can’t see me beaming from your flat a few kilometres away….I truly love this, Liebchen…and you. x

jessica…thank you lovely for the Bmail – even though the reason we are both writing it well, I wouldn’t wish it for either one of us. But this piece here, its utterly beautiful and it makes me take a soft intake of breath when I read it. You are so crazy talented…

I’ve scrunched up failures
and thrown them in the bin,
pushed cranes
across a sea of light
and I’m watching my dreams soar
in the form of paper airplanes

ooooh, i love origami, paper cuts and all your thoughts! ;-) xox

you write cool. i wanna learn to write poetry as good as you.

i like, that was good

this is brilliant jess, superb imagery. you’re a wonderful word weaver. i love!

One of the best things I’ve ever read on here.

Wonderfully descriptive…

This is awesome!

Fantastic! Well done

How I have missed your deliciousness…fold yourself gently loverly.

I’m not saying anything new… but I have to chime in with my appreciation for these words, and the fantastic opening line that also caught my attention.

you are so clever…i love this. it reminds me (most obviously because of the crease and fold thing) of something i wrote called ‘dirt.’ but yours is infinitely better! hope you’ve been well…

i am always the last one to know about all the awesome stuff on rb lol
this great great writing i think u got a new fan

Awesome, i love it! Kristin

what a fantastic metaphor, wonderfully expressed, a concept crafted and presented as flawlessly as a master oragamist’s paper product.

Reading this made me think about poetry as the oragami of language, constructing from the plane medium of vocabulary a multi-dimensional curiosity.

I love it :-)

so so beautiful

This is verry beautiful to read it left me captivated
: )

very powerful writing & voice!

fabulouso!! I folded the paper along as I read this….really enjoyable concept and writing craft! :))

LOL love it. I must have folded my brain up like that sometime in the past…

You are one of the most original poetic artists that I have come across in 2 months of looking at RB. You say nothing about yourself but I hope you are a professional artist in some field- so that others may see-read and enjoy your work.

Wow! You rock! I am an instant fan!!!!! Love how you do it!

beautiful..well done!

oh goodness, the flow and beauty of all of your works has enlightened me, makes me want to write more and more! you write with such passion and trust that we all find the wonder within what you do. You must be a lovely, intelligent person to be able to do what you do, and this piece is just another vision of your wisdom.

oh, no, not just, I didn’t mean just. just is an unacceptable word that means little, yet we use it so often. i mean, another wonderful, stunning, amazing, gorgeous piece.
