Less of the Fist
Doggerel Dave said:
Hi Neville - sent a copy of this entry off to Bletchley Park to let the wonderkinds there have a perfunctory at it - hope you don\'t mind.
Arrogance power and a touch of sadism also embodied there - nicely; terrible to contemplate.

Can never understand why the fist is used in any loving relationship.

Those sepia images could tell touching stories if they could but talk -- raised fists would try to keep sitters still when portraits were taken in days of yore........ or maybe the poem exposed cruel abuse - - either way reading your use of intrigue beguiles your truly...........x

Clever words Neville, we each go different ways in our life but we must not make any waves to upset others.

Simple but complicated, Interpretation is in the eye of reader,
my assessment! Carry a bucket with holes, cause sands
get too heavy , and it’ll weigh ya down! An Island is
built on hope and love , not sand castles That wash away,
Sorry, it’s an excellent metaphor for life

brilliant!
(your words have inspired me to surpass my feeble limits, so many times my friend: thank you!)
\'its those, who are too considerate
to be bold
that end-up tip toeing, their way
to that bitterness of regret...
Behold, modernity\'s progression
where solidarity reigns - most supreme
between self-enforced isolation\'s
comradery bonds
of entitled tethers, to suffering\'s surrender
upon landlocked islands
within our Sea of stubborn mindsets
sailing in that abundant ocean
of Nature\'s innate communion
with all things: humane\'

Neat one, Neville. Reminds me of Work, now thankfully twenty years (how did that happen?) ago. Witness it (occasionally) on MPS. Probably a more common situation than we care to admit…….
Great little (contradiction in terms?) summary of circumstances I know quite well.

A modern way of life to many I fear -- not making waves often avoids being honest - - the imagery you use is fantastically good for the message to get through - -- a truly impressive four liner amigo.........x

Neville you devil. So many wats to interpret this gem.
I like to think of it as an expression of a true love in a working relationship where each is unrestrained in their day to day and each bring home to their togetherness the rewards of being a whole and independant person giving their intimacy to the one who holds the jewels of their happiness and desires.
Nice one Neville.

as ever, quick with the wit and far too deep
when deciphering that cancerous - threat
to humanity\'s essential requirement, for survival
see, taken as a solitary case - study, this write - be a fun read
but when you consider
an entire generation has now been convinced
they need not pick-out that thread - to begin with
or lift a needle: only - to struggle with
only then do we readers, get a glimpse
at just how far-reaching and true
your words read...
clever and unerringly acute, yet for me: a truly foreboding read
a brilliant shorty, my friend!
would take me a few pages trying to unfurl its layers
and there-in exists the majesty, within our beloved poetry

If she were knitting, then dropping a stitch is common, knit and purl, but if she’s bare underneath the knitted shawl, then it would be purr lol

how I\'ve missed your signature words of profound insight, wrapped
in that humble generosity of stylistic subtlety - ever deftly, you nudge
with your choice prioritisation of accessibility..
brilliantly paced my friend!
\'one could simply use your words
as their last will and testament
(as a star-crossed lover, would borrow song lyrics)
and those who truly cared for them, will feel
like they received all the treasure in the world
by just hearing those lines of poetic warmth
and feeling their hearts, resonate
with the veracity of truth, imbued
within each syllable...\'

Nicely plucked snippets of occasion from a life lived in fullness. It\'s said it all flashes before us at the time of passing (how do they know LOL) and maybe the salient points will be clearer then. But here and now this was a rewarding read in the style which is very much your own and appreciated by this reader.... among many i\'m sure.

Sometimes an edufication is to be found on MPS. Despite my misgivings, I did seek the assistance of Prof Google (not always cooperative) and managed with a struggle to discover what these Nut something or others were, plus their collective noun...
Mistletoe ball still an ongoing project.....
Marlboroughs? Smoked those coffin nails for years - but that was forty years ago
Finally? at the end? Still able to think hard lengthy thoughts....after a fashion. :-)
Thanks for it all, Neville.
Ditto the sentiments expressed above re your move.
