An Unexpected Chaos
Dove said:
And so you met again, the passion, the thrill , and maybe the chaos
Of yesteryear’s departure! Profound thoughts, with giddy pleasures

Nobody\'s perfect, Nev.

I once put a shell to my ear
To my surprise what did I hear?
My Muse with words to write
In the sand, but waves washed the sight

jumped the gun, maybe
blurted out those words in the heat of passion
mere weaved syllables, to him
a tsunami of release for her: once repressed, dreams
and so she dams, herself - back
to those safe shores, of disbelief...
\'timing\', is a much neglected artform
in my humble opinion!
another brilliant shorty, dear poet
couldn\'t help being inspired
thank you! what a gift you choose to share

Was it a WW2 shell?
Some hear only their own thoughts and plans falling into place.

Good write Neville.
Yes, we can get into some silent places - old church, etc - and the silence can actually hurt our ears - so does me singing to them! heehee.

Value the human with a conscience, Nev - sometimes I believe they are few.
Too cynical?

I can see two seriously intriguing pictures here , Nev - the first, your piece, very vivid consisting of strategically placed words which hold themselves together with the aid of your skill; and the other: formed with shards of glass, held together with..... blood and bone?

A Very Personal Holocaust
L. B. Mek said:
it took years for the Nazi\'s
to warp minds and conquer
their own country, the rest
they achieved - in a matter of days...
A heart wrenching read, like how you treated
such a painful subject with so much respect
(this is you
at your subtle and measured best
in my humble opinion)
thanks for sharing, my friend

Limerence
L. B. Mek said:
see, we all crave that validation of attention
until we get it, on tap and we leave it running
just to test its reserves
while coveting all those other flavour delicacies
till, that day comes
and we realise, the well\'s run dry
then even those untried flavours, start to come
with a lingering aftertaste, that we just can\'t shake
not knowing, we\'re the ones
that\'s spoilt our taste buds
with all that: festering guilt...
(maybe took this somewhere else?) lol
another witty shorty, with layers

Was it me, was she too much for me? Did I jump off a roof, and fall on a greenhouse?! Doh!

Took me totally by surprise as it went along - just as I suppose it was meant to - how life can change in an instant to something so bad.... those were truly awful times.

Doggerel Dave said:
Much hard graft went into that, Nev – and more worthy grounds would be hard to find than that alluded to above, that figures like six (twelve?) million slip by, when your piece brings home the loss, personally to every one of them..
But further, for me, one other moral argument for the insistence that this Holocaust can never be forgotten is summarized in the line “Take my word, how things change in the blink of an eye ..” – I will always be mindful that change could occur today , tomorrow, any time.....and evidence since has already proven that it can and has. Rwanda, Cambodia, Bosnia.......................................................................................

When we hear figures like six million (forgive my ignorance for innacuracy) it just passes by within a second as a part of a sentence which might have a meaning to the listener, it might be a figure heard many times before assosciated with holocaust..... another word which slips by in a second in a sentence....
We know how rich and rewarding our lives are, how precious is our life even if we are homeless beggars around the late night cashpoint, beggars with a life story to tell, and a warm beating heart.
So was every single one of the millions. Every single one. Possessing, hopes, plans, ambitions, sucesses and disappointment. Possessing life in all it\'s colour.
