Several great lines in this poem but my favorite are the last two lines. Deterministic in view it packs a punch

This is understandable Dan but we also have those wonderful dreams when sleep does come to us.

You express yourself so well in these reflections. A fine write with some wonderful lines. Sometimes we have to process these things to get them out. Cheers, Tom.

Fierce Longing
sorenbarrett said:

Dan you have linked together a series of gem like stanzas that all relate to ageing. Being in the winter of life I feel the cold of this poem and the wisdom in it. Some of my favorite lines were: Life clung to past reasonable, becomes poor exercise, Why does time hold from us wisdom till its application little matters?, sadness always climbs on for the ride, you pay the fare. A wonderful and most thoughtful write

In life we have these problems sometimes Dan but we have dealt with them otherwise we would not be here now and from that experience we know how to move on into a better place .

Try to stay cool (this advice from someone who doesn\'t some of the time) because it is no good for your physical health.
Disciplined write though.

Berserker
sorenbarrett said:

In depth into the mind of a berserker. Savage, determined, devoted, naked and sometimes drugged. Warrior of the north. Valhalla I say.

Inches From Madness
sorenbarrett said:

This is quite a ride of ups and downs around and around. I think I ended up back where I began or maybe I got lost in that maze. Good write.

Inches From Madness
Cheeky Missy said:

\"They\" claim that Percy Bysshe Shelley was \"mad,\" yet I most heartily disagree. I see where they find their points, and must still disagree. This rather intriguing invitation into the discussion is fascinating and rendered to effect with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. You\'re too clever. Thank you for sharing.

Love how this is set up as in the middle of something unknown. A mystery remains on both ends. Very nice.

All groups of people have to be regulated - the questions are by how much and by who?
Wouldn\'t mindhearing more from you on that first amendment, Dan as I\'m too old and tired to go into it in any depth.

sorenbarrett said:

Don\'t get me on a rant. Such words evoke strong emotions in anyone deluded enough to think they were brought up in a free country. Each percieved restriction is felt as a tightening ot the grasp around one\'s throat. Blood pressure raises.
