dictators are like amplifiers
Doggerel Dave said:
You might classify this as surrealist, Jon, but the symbiotic relationship here is clear - and true.
Thanks

The Battle of Brandy Station
jarcher54 said:
A fine action poem turned into a meditation on violence, human frailty, and the meaning of life. God has a lot to shake her head about, that\'s for sure. And maybe shed a tear... at some point does God stop trying?

\'our strips of stuff that tatter as we move\'
jarcher54 said:
I had to catch my breath after this one. I picture the three Fates, one spinning, one weaving, and one snagging a loose thread to begin unravelling us, all jumbled into one intense tour de force. Painful and somewhat beautiful!

Good fun write.

Doggerel Dave said:
Although not au fait with all your allusions Jon, I have the feeling this is a neat funny little piece.
PS: Who is this Ephesians4:26 guy anyway? Is he a poet here? I’d go and sort him out or do the red ‘report’ button……………….😉

Death and the Kings
Doggerel Dave said:
Awake too late, though - a well told tale, Jon.
The irony there - what was once; what is now: King 2 wanted King 1\'s son to marry his daughter..... and now?

cut and paste poem #16: bertrand russell and snagglepuss
Doggerel Dave said:
With snagglepuss in the mix I find it funny and, yes, a little surreal.
Thanks Jon.

I do not as a general rule take statements of which I have no prior knowledge on face value, but attempt to investigate (in this case, named George Berkeley). This I endeavored to do. Search lasted approx 10 minutes, after which I was forced to lie down with a cold compress over my eyes. Headache eventually reduced to tolerable level.
Thanks for the recommendation - I should\'a taken more notice.
