Yours Truly A. Victim .. & Maybe Just Maybe

The first seems a bit \"passive-aggressive\" for both the \"you\" and the \'I.\' The second could not be any truer. Administered on time it is \"resuscitation,\" A heartbeat too late and, if successful, \"resuscitation\" becomes either \"reincarnation\" or \"resurrection.\" Yeah, but who\'s counting? Loved \'em both. - Phil A.

I’m leaving the first; there’s too much of it about. Very little ‘me’ in this comment - it’s everywhere.
Second (this mentioned by someone a while back) Anesthesia in hospital links all those for me. Thanks for defining it in that way, Neville.
PS: What is the ‘pissed off’ about?

Ahem. *cough, cough* erm, this, THIS is you pissed off? You\'re such a gentleman at it, I rather wish we were better acquainted. What I actually love about these two dainties is how very eloquent they are, (excepting my fundamental disagreement with the second in one point). Besides, take Genesis 3: who put the blame on his creator? We make our choices but prefer casting the blame on, yes. But if resuscitation and resurrection were siamese twins, there is no hope. Okay, enough of me. Beautifully rendered with a delightfully haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing. (Put on the kettle and have Barry\'s; it\'ll give you relative peace of mind in lieu of that piece of mind, if you catch my drift.)

Neville. The first poem so identifiable. I think we all have felt this. So well put in so few words blame, returned for kindness given. The second poem also so true reflections of the same image in different mirrors. Poetic breaths of the air around us.

So many life experiences are piled up in a few short words, it\'s like seeing a fragment of the path you followed.

Yes, the first one - KP always blames me of course!
The second one - KP says to me - \'If you believed in reincarnation, I will come back to haunt ya!\'
I must say you\'re saving a lot of ink using 2 dots .. instead of 3 ... each time.
\'Go back to sleep now, you\'re rambling,\' says Fido to me.

I so hate the grinding of rings and them biting into flesh as fingers clench. So I rarely wear mine. Plus, the weather can make them either gloopy or icy, depending. But of courthouse concerns of mine don’t take away from your lovely poem. There is never a want of intimate connection with your compositions!

Whoa, 007. I know you never could forget, only politely aquiesce and feign you did until the next moment your eyes stole a glance into hers, when the electrifying shock instantaneously ripped through both your bodies thanks to that tiny little glance. Ah me! You charmer! Superbly rendered with such a strength of poignancy I nearly squirmed in my seat, and imagery to kill. I declare. Thank you for sharing, you wilely fox, you.

I read it thrice, and on each read I felt that the speaker was in a state of suspension between two points in time. One is of course the present and the other in past, whose memories are vivid and touches upon the small intimate details showing the intensity. Loved the understated style and the sense of sort of moving on but still tethered to some point in the past.

Memories so well set in this poem. It is the mixture of nostalgic and at the same time imperfect situations that bring reality and humanity to this poem. Perfect in its imperfection.

This is, I think, the heart and essence of poetry. I think it is why more people don\'t get involved with places like this. Nicely done.

Poetry rarely hides, I find they lightly veil or curiously disguise or gently nudge, even. Lovely little poem here. Liked and Faved!

“Seek, and ye shall find” -there you go, I’m not a bible person, but it seemed logical to me…so what I got out of that was an observation of my own receptivity, which I cherish, and yes I am prepared to pick up, process, evaluate and perhaps incorporate….and so on….!
(Word count longer than your poem -so there!)

Absolutely beautiful!! A lovely short that has more impact on the reader that is open to it. Like a piece of gold lying in the street, overlooked by many it glimmers in the sun for those whose eye is open to it.

Wow! 🤯 Obviously and intentionally open to interpretation and the discovery of oneself in the process. True of any prosaic or poetic collection of words, really. But wow! Profound! Love this. 🌹👏
