You took a picture of twilight\'s soul with your words there, fellow writer. An umistakable depiction. Compelling, with strong imagery that stays long after the reading is done. Master craftsmanship.

Loved the openness of your poem. We the readers can fill in so many spaces, all different, but still holding to your poem.
Great write.

Age of the Zombie II
L. B. Mek said:

pointed observations, that capture the core essence of injustice
that, despite the passing of Time
refuses to diminish
in intensity or resolve!
(a great write, love the choice wording
thanks for choosing to share,
especially, like the fact that
we can apply your words
to almost every form of inherited,
injustice - throughout the world...)

Thank you for reading and \"hearing\".

What\'re The Mazers Doing Next Door?
L. B. Mek said:

\'in a world so rejectful of the past.\'

\'Really, a gathering, of like minds
who are much closer to zen than I.\'

\'But this was a day
I will fondly look back on
and these
newly made batches of mead
will ensure
all of the stories: yet to come.\'
(Elegantly worded, subtly paced and nuanced;
when we find something
we can freely enjoy
and Belong: to
well, that\'s half the struggle
in our life\'s
fermentation process, unfurled
and all that heady sweetness of ethanol
we get to sample, of that ultimate mead
we\'ve labelled, existence...)
really well written! thank you
for choosing to share, dear poet

It sounds as if you live a lot of life in your head - which I always do - and who\'s to say that isn\'t real.....

Paths VII
Eugene S. said:

I think for me, dreams are an abstract depiction of the life experience, and what an adventure that has been (sarcasm intended). Dreams are definitely quirky things, or is it reality that is so quirky?🤔 ... now I\'m just confused.🤪

Paths VII
L. B. Mek said:

yeah, I think I get the same reading as Andy
from this unflinchingly brave words,
clearly there\'s a disconnect you\'re picking up on, cos its bled into your write,
question is, if the dream is just that
a visison, a mirage of subconsius entering reality
through your dreams, or
if its more sinister, and its reality that\'s overwhelming your capacity to dream..
a really intriguing concept and read,
thanks for sharing, dear poet

Portents IV
Eugene S. said:

It\'s so amazing to me that I can illicit such interesting interpretations. Thank you again for listening.

Portents IV
L. B. Mek said:

those blinked seconds between choice and consequence?
or happenstance and circumstance?
or nurture vs nature?
or, or, or...
Portent\'s and prophecies aplenty, from antiquity,
to that same stinky socks, worn for every \'lucky day\' miracle \'Hail Mary\' attempt, with seconds remaining on that fleeting window of opportunity...
I say, put a P on one side and E on the other of your chosen \'faithful\' coin, flick it up - high
and walk-on, to your next - to do list
(where E stands for Excuses, Escapes, Elective-ignorance)
(forgive me if I completely side stepped your theological themes and hijacked your words into my own selfish interpretation, dear poet)
thanks for sharing, a thought provoking read

Not the Religion I Knew
L. B. Mek said:

devoid of any alignment with your theological points
this was a well written poem
very insightful and your arguments, well articulated
thank you, for choosing to share..
(why not start our own avenue for faith
a pick and mix buffet, devoid of zealotry and lies
we choose, knowingly
eyes - wide: shut! in hope
that we, alone - be the ones to guess write?!)
\'Let no one, dictate - Anything, to you
not even, when they poison your waters
to that childhood naivety, you - long
to claim back, and include in your
purview of informed, Awareness...\'

Drinking Mead in Roosevelt\'s Horse Stable
aDarkerMind said:

whether things have changed or not Eugene...
what wont change is your poetry of brilliant images and life itself;

the last stop on the way to history...
a line to treasure;

Sixty Taps in an Olde Swamp
The elder poet said:

You habe found your Happy place. Your home away from home. A place to feel at ease in. A place to feel at home. A nice write.

Paths VI
L. B. Mek said:

\'Their cadence in the morning darkness

It\'s always been an escape for me
An alternative destination
Someplace contrary to where I\'m headed\'..
exemptional pacing, adding a real depth of poignancy
and relatability of melodic melancholy
although, without it being too sombre;
a measured write of nuanced brevity,
your lines take us on a musical whirlwind journey
of yearned-for: remembrance
to a time, we wouldn\'t necessarily want to revisit
under normal circumstances.
Brilliantly executed, a great write! dear poet
