The Tears of a Crowd Forming
Fay Slimm. said:
That horror resurrected in prosaic clarity will bring shudders and more to those reading your avidly penned descriptions of the thirties with its despicable behaviour of uncaring insanity - - with lessons learnt the future should never produce sights and sounds of such crowds forming again --- or at least we hope so with all our heart............x

Amen!!
I\'ll add this though, \"in a world where no two things are ever the same, twins, clones, copies, any two things. I think we are lucky to just keep on spinning.
I hope the sentiment of your poem becomes universal. If we humans could just accept each other as human, then maybe we could move forward. But large egos get in the way and the \"self\" overtakes all other concerns. Love, Peace and Harmony. - Phil A.

A fine write N.
My dilemma of course is: \'Why did I, what if I never, perhaps I shouldn\'t have, married KP! lol.
Do shut up Orch, says Fido.
I might allow one whale to be culled. A beached whale. Oh, it was KP sun-bathing! heehee.

read your words and couldn\'t help
relating to them in a selfishly
personal manner
hence my rant below, forgive me Hyung
(those dictators love to state
Poetry, should be read out loud
a must
I ask,
what if we\'ve worded poetic
what could never be spoken
tried to poetically, express
in-place of a yearning to caress
what then, dear \'know it all\'
must poetry exist to entertain
only
what if it\'s a note, a confession
inked
with that sincerity of scarlet ink
intended to reach, just one
whose forgiveness, can never
be attained
yet still, that need to word something
and explain, necessitates
the existence if these poetic words)

Duplicity
L. B. Mek said:
yeah...
in the past, my partner left her phone with me
so I can help her get something fixed
every night, around 1 am
some fool, would call her number
and detail their encounters
I simply posted back her phone
never said a word to her after
years later, we met
she thought I had found someone else
and dumped her...
(perspective, warps
which end of that duplicity
we find, looking back at us)
or it may just be me n my horrid luck...
lol
(such a relatable write, Hyung)

Your personal comment after the poem creased me up even more than the tale of cheesecloth attire on a breathtaking female -- --only a mind like yours mon ami can conjour intrigue in nothing but a few lines. - - Great stuff................x

I see this as complete, you responded and chose the direction of your words and she was impacted with unintended consequence-great work about ambivalence, poet friend.

The uncomplete-d sits there and can be returned to but that isn\'t always the easiest feat to accomplish. But Time it has been said is a great healer and when that time comes around a reconciliation restores and even lets soar. I pray for that for every uncomplete poem and every poet that they correspond to.

Duplicity
Bella Shepard said:
Ouch! Why is it that the sound of the word \"duplicity\" seems somewhat benign, it rhymes beautifully with felicity and domesticity. And yet there is its sinister side that can bring volatility and hostility. It is a duplicitous word that you have done justice to dear friend. Good write!

And he replied, \"We were just having coffee.\" And she replied, \" Yes, but with a lot of sugar on the side.\"
And \'Duplicity\" rhymes with stupidity. Never revisit where you\'ve been with another.
This poem is aptly titled for the title itself is duplicitous. I can\'t imagine one caught this outright, would ever be allowed to stay. You have given fair warning to those that consider love to be a game. Your poem is one of the hard lessons of life. Its realistic presentation, her vengeful attitude, and his silence, show where the moral high point lies. Loved it. - Phil A.

Did You Ever Dare to Ask
MendedFences27 said:
Some might wonder, \" Why question a good thing?\" But without complete knowledge that thing can be misunderstood. Questioning, then. becomes important. Incomplete understanding can ruin a relationship.
A daring title, followed by the wisdom of a running question, leading to an obvious result. A most enjoyable poem and a bit of wisdom too. - Phil A.

Echoes Seldom Lie These Days
MendedFences27 said:
Besides the physical ties that bind there are the emotional and psychological ties as well. The fire never dies if there is fuel and an open chimney.
Your poem paints a picture of long-lasting love, and how rare it is in today\'s throw-away world. As for \"echoes\" and \"robin\'s eggs\" - What we say or speak is of major importance, and life has a full palette of blues. Loved this one. - Phil A.

Youth is the sweetest time of life, often filled with romance, friends, food. drink. and music. Time itself, becomes irrelevant and only selfish needs prevail. Yet, as fodder for poetry, reminiscence of that time brings forth pages.
Your poem rings true to those times and those moments. It stirs the memories of your readers. Your chosen words give life to their forgotten memories. Thank you for posting this. It sparked a recall of many such happenings. - Phil A.
