Requiem For a Lost Cause
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
from title to pinprick last dots
this was profoundly sobering
contemplation needed, as preparation
for those inevitable tear stains, in life
(I read and learn)
thank you! Hyung

In the Wake of New Gods
L. B. Mek said:

funny, every other word I read
mentions, people\'s
demons and life\'s devilish temptations
I thought western secular society assassinated all deity\'s
how convenient, we choose to keep
the demonic around;
\'American gods\', a book that\'s
as prophetic as it is steeped
in mythological fantasy;
we be contrary creatures, that duality
necessity
of self betraying contradiction
in our every choice...)

Two Ants One Question
L. B. Mek said:

sticky sweet..
explains why hollywod\'s
no1 profession, is a nose surgeon
we all need a release
some are powdery white and sweet
others... destroy!
an anthill\'s life, indeed
(a deeper read warranted of this
subtle gem
my very wise friend, loved this
such acute imagery
executed so subtly)

The Mess They Leave Behind
L. B. Mek said:

Hyung,
I bow to your empathetic endurance
I can barely handle my own sht
let alone walk through life, wading
through other people\'s, mire...
(escapism as our artform of ignorance
we assume, all is fair
in our neurotic crutches of life
even when those crutches are formed
of the goodwill ashes
of those who invested in us, or
the innocent collateral damage
of the
thoughtless choice we make in life..)

Thrilled as ever, wanting perhaps, but the universe knew you had the position that didn’t require any “ups”

MendedFences27 said:

Is worshipping the cell phone the latest cult.? Will they all walk into the sea at the same time?
There is a growing feeling that we are raising a generation that will be incapable of human interaction. They will walk around with their phones doing whatever it tells them to do. Scary!! - Phil A.

Back seat\'s the best spot for back seat driving. But otherwise destroying all that makes us look foolish is top order. The new and latest is for many but that could be seen as a badge of surface dwelling and a lack of much depth.

The fewer \'ants dancing in\" sugar pots the \'sweeter\" it will be.
A very clever image created by you in this poem, happy ants dancing in sugar, setting up the final rhetorical question. But let\'s not encourage the ants. - Phil A,

Doggerel Dave said:

Well I just ain’t sure whether this is a tale or true reportage, and yeh I know a gentleman never tells. Thus I’m left to make my own mind up about that….
Either way, irony is something I’m well into, so thanks for a bit of dark entertainment, Neville.

Two Ants One Question
Bella Shepard said:

Would it be trit to say \"short and sweet\"? It may be, but the image of two ants dancing in a sugar pot is the sweetest I can imagine. I\'d love it to be a waltz, but with all that suger it\'s probably a jitterbug. Now I\'m smiling in the sweetest way, thank you.

MendedFences27 said:

Here, attempting suicide is a crime. She would have been prosecuted. Really, compensation?
Some people ought to be more aware
of the consequences of their actions.
Your poem highlights the results of today\'s \"It\'s all about me!\" attitude. How the hell does one peel a grape? Just another excellent piece of writing. Enjoyed it. - Phil A.
