The poem is my love

More than once talked about his love for paintings. Raised questions of self-realization, inspiration and creativity. Periodically, among others, there are posts with videos with beautiful words in the background... not just prose words, but poems. Poems are another love of mine! Poems whose lyrics resonate in me and touch me with the expression with which I read them.

Evening with #KonstantinRaikin, where the artist read the works of great authors in a poetic mono-performance. And so... with my love of criticism, I can say and realized for myself one thing - I choose 5 out of 5 and 10 out of 10 when read by the author himself.

The author knows and feels his lyrics like no one else. And yes, to have a beautiful voice is a gift that not every author and person possesses. But the author's emotion is in every letter of every word... it is emotion, not acting, which I had to watch this time from the stage.

It was not possible to rest and relax. Among the works that Konstantin read, most of them were heavy and long... more like stories than poems... only one work - "juvenile" - resonated with me, which I listened to attentively and ingratiatingly trying every word.

Yes, every word of the poem touches your soul, gets under your skin and through your whole body... yes, yes, yes, yes... you agree, hear, feel, understand... the color, weight, shape and smell of every word of this poem. I've had a few #VideoPoems in my feed that closed the issue so completely that I had no words left to add more to what was said. It's all too on target. Everything is so very on point. Everything is perfect...even when there is no such thing. I love poetry!
