Not to be a downer but hidden beneath your message is the ominous winds of the demise of democracy.

.. and all
chasing crumbs
leaching off, of
society\'s rubbish..
Gluttony, was an all consuming
evil
before Theology: ever existed!
(a great write, dear Poet)
and thank you, for letting me vent a little as well
by helping inspire my little scribbled reply

Methinks I know folk like gulls who crave attention by incessant mewing. Agree too with Dusk that your words spell deeper meaning than just inconsequential - good write my friend.....x

Well crafted dear poet
Especially because it’s a sweet way of satire filled with truth
Those are the great politicians we choose
Well penned

Your talking about MP\'s again, what a load of misconceptions and non truths spew from their beaks.

Such a lovely metaphor for the Houses of Parliament you\'ve poetically phrased today.

Can you smell the regurgitated fish?

Intriguing words Neville, it is like an abstract artwork where you really have to look deeply into it to find a meaning within yourself - I like abstract works of art so thank you.

Me thinks you tickled the MPS’s uvula, devilishly teasing, engaging, meaning left to interpretation

I love it! It is something I can completely relate to and sincerely needed to hear! The universe is so timely when we\'re willing to listen isn\'t it. Keep em coming I\'ve thoroughly enjoyed them all! I do hope that when where purging are negative thoughts that we do not mean to offend others it\'s just our way of releasing of which we cannot hang on to is all. No sweet can be appreciated without the knowledge of a bit of bitter. Thus, bittersweet.

Mystery leads the mind to conjour a story..... plenty of meat here to construct a very strangely framed tale....

Sounds like the mummy has been found, and her importance has been lost in time.

Old pictures viewed in today\'s mode must have seemed to perpetuate people yet traits remembered bring back even the taste and smell of someone much missed - - at least I think that is the message behind this intriguing read - - well perhaps maybe......x

That sounds really painful … not being able to fully move away from something … almost makes me think of feeling a sense of feeling trapped . Just how I read it anyway

I can’t say I fully understand this but you seem to be trying to say a lot in just a few lines

Wasn’t it those pints that loosened our tongues and gotten us in that ‘truth be told’ mess to start with. Well maybe them those pints, as you said, will get us out of it….

or count to 3 and allow me to create distance,
so as to step, back
into your good books
without, the hassle
of a soon-to-be regretted
bust-up, or three...
🍻
here\'s to our hard earned appreciation
for avoiding, futile confrontation!

L. B. Mek said:

sadly, its only when we witness
the truly good, among us
leave - behind, as many regrets
as those of us, who watched-on
as mere spectators,
we get to realise
just how fleeting, our Now
truly is..
(reads like a poignant scene from a well written novel or play)
a delightful read
thanks for sharing, dear Poet

The friendship we endure, must strain to first recall the imperfections, and in their absence must wonder why we even ventured so…..even when beckoned by your poetic words.

dusk arising said:

Oh i recall the days when i threw arrows at your image and mocked every utterance upon your breath.
But then i learned to voice your name so slowly that, apart from strange looks as I noised that name in a dirge of meditational transit, my mind began to see the messiah within your very soul.....

Now there\'s a story it would be difficult to live up to.

Good read, Neville.
Though we shared great times, my imperfections seem to be what is kept.

A moment of heat
A moment of rush
Always makes us take the bad decisions
Especially the words chosen at that moment be so rude
That we may end up hurting others
Thank you dear poet for the message, if we can assign imperfections to others. Then we must remember no one exists without flaws.

Interesting way with words … good poem . I guess sometimes we can forget the imperfections ,

Not good to always focus on that which we see at fault with someone ejse
