When Nothing is a Sound Too Loud
Doggerel Dave said:
Value the human with a conscience, Nev - sometimes I believe they are few.
Too cynical?

A masterpiece of broken heart. A post-modern 3D art.

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

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
thanks for sharing, dear poet

Strong imagery which tells such an intriguing tale Nev. -- your pen sees interludes and transcribes them to gently bewitch all your readers - a cleverly written masterpiece again....x

A fine write N.
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.

Personal indeed this lament at grossly cruel inhumanity suffered by numberless families not too long ago -- penned with compassion and graphic honesty your account of Miss Cohen\'s great loss needs to be widely read and remembered -- into my list to make sure I do not forget..... thank you my caring friend.........x

Been there, both sides at different times…..did not enjoy either: inability to concentrate on study and exams on one side, a terrifying responsibility on the other – both, thankfully a long time ago…Who says age doesn’t have its merits….?
One side at least beautifully encapsulated there, Nev.

There comes a time when either gender is tested too much my friend - I guess then appears an untitled and flagrant dismissal which I understand - the She in the waste bin needs to see insults don\'t always bring hasty answers by pacification to most often planned manipulation - - Oooh now look what this read has brought out in me.......... x
