Recollections: thought appears unbidden.. new link forged to further memory and... Been there, so very familiar - different thoughts different links, same dynamic...yes, so very familiar...

The Impact of Sudden Unexpected Realisation
MendedFences27 said:

Those \"time drops\" will eventually move in to stay. With each one comes a memory. The history of one\'s life will be written in the creams and ointments applied to dull the pain or pills swallowed to keep the body whole. It tastes bittersweet, passionate memories and troublesome regrets. They call it life. Eventually time wins out and we all pay the price. Your poem definitely has an impact of time catching up with a fully lived life. - Phil A

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Neville, those “time drop visitations”…that image sticks. It gives time a physical presence, something that arrives and leaves a mark. That’s what anchors it. Beautifully done on this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Thomas W Case said:

Time hits like a fist wrapped in memory—bitter, vivid, and unrelenting.
Your words carry the weight of both regret and quiet revelation.

This poem like a free association runs from one thing to the next flowing ever downward as water pulled by the gravity that draws it to its mother sea. Nice Neville

The Principle of Sameness

The sameness is the thing often overlooked or totally ignored, to our detriment. 🕊️🙏

The Principle of Sameness
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Neville, this hit me hard…there’s a quiet unease running through it that doesn’t let go. It feels watchful…like something just out of sight but never gone. That closing turn lands with a kind of weary knowing. Strong piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The Principle of Sameness
Thomas W Case said:

Fine work, my friend. Silent, sly, and patient—they move in the shadows while the world blinks.
A whisper can cut sharper than a scream when the same old dance repeats.

That sameness arises on many occasions Neville.

The Principle of Sameness
Doggerel Dave said:

Precisely where the power lies. In many ways untouchable. Politicians are such clowns by comparison. The clowns at the circus, in fact. In a nutshell, Neville.

They are always there but unseen. A lovely write that gives me deja vu feels.

Those bars and safety nets are in most of our lives Neville.

MendedFences27 said:

Clinging to something in case it may be needed, or in case it became an excuse to pay another visit. Never let go of everything. Although the acrobat and ballerina would be a hard act to follow. I doubt it\'s for reference. Maybe the acrobat could \"bend over backwards\' while the ballerina \"stays on her toes\"? A simile with a smile, or smirk. Loved it. - Phil A.

Doggerel Dave said:

Who took the bars and who took the safety net? Or did they make an exchange at predetermined intervals? and what was the precise nature of their relationship prior to... and what\'s more, did they both live happily ever after? Too many unanswered questions, Neville - you are going to have to pull your socks up (One of the great advantages of living in a warm climate is the lack of sock wearing activity for most of the year.)

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Neville, this lands with that quiet, knowing tone you do so well…there’s a subtle wit here that doesn’t need to announce itself. It just settles in and lets the realization unfold. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Neville this smacks of how some relationships work on one level but not another. Obligations make for a different game and there is greater excitement in freedom. A most pertinent write my friend

In The Shadow of Fast Clocks
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Neville, this carries a thoughtful, wandering reflection…moving from time and aging into something more existential. “A series of back on back tiny moments” and that closing uncertainty about the rules really anchor it. It doesn’t try to resolve anything…it just sits honestly in the question. Beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

Good write N. You spent that extra second we had one year? Did you spend it all at once?! lol.

Time will not stop, and age will not pass, we all get older in time Neville but we are still here and so much luckier than others we knew,

Friendship said:

Your poem may be an exploration of existential questions and the personal journey of understanding one\'s life in relation to the inexorable passage of time.

Doggerel Dave said:

I attempt, fast or slow, to ignore it, Neville. What\'s that old corny phrase, \'in the moment\'?

Except, that is, when it\'s time for a cuppa....

In The Shadow of Fast Clocks
sorenbarrett said:

A slow clock shortens your years but lengthens your pleasure. A most provocative write that pulls at the mind and I can not help you my friend about the rules, I thought I knew them but they were all changed last week. Well done Neville
