Is that finger pointing at me? You are creating paranoia in me Dan. A very interesting rhyme scheme and meter to this poem loved it.

Over Your Shoulder

I doubt any lover of poetry could find fault with these words Dan .. you both begin and end with a question that encourages the reader to think back upon himself .. they sit well on the page too my friend .. this is where I feel compelled to type Bravo .. Neville

The Student?
Bella Shepard said:

I truly get what you\'re saying here. I have often thought there is no real freedom in learning, from the time we enter school. We are told what to believe, rather than being provided with opportunities to question, explore, expand and grow. Kudos my friend, and a good write!

Here and gone even illusions can be missed. Loved the last line \"While poisoned air and wasted water, anathema to survival, is everywhere\"

\"prophecies like knives of reason
he never really learned to throw.\" -He does try, and I do pay close attention...as better, more accurate technology is pitted against more frequent unpredictability.
Enjoyed however for your smooth take..

To have that insight when that young is remarkable. Nicely composed it flowed to a most logical and satisfying end.

The Weatherman
MendedFences27 said:

I must admit that I think these
Weathermen,: by the way I see more women than men nowadays, do a much more accurate prediction than in years gone by. Technology aids them mightily. Still in the sum of things, they still have the only job where you can be wrong all the time and remain employed. -Phil A.

Something Unnamed
Bella Shepard said:

The mind can suddenly create an image out of almost nothing, isn\'t it grand? Like looking at clouds and finding shapes that gradually fade. You express beautifully the minds eye, in something unnamed.
