Oh wow cold hearted with a bit of jam sparkling in the corner vertex of poker smiling puckering lips. Perhaps even flicking a lone rose petal on that rapidly cooling corpse while she walks off unhurriedly, the clacking of her heels ringing with the cadence of the Reaper\'s march.

While out cutting my lawn one day, I found a Praying Mantis and found it rather friendly as I picked it up and moved him out of harm\'s way to a near-by bush. I say \"it\" because I can\'t tell the difference between male and female of the species. Well penned my scribble professional friend. 🙂

(meh
not that deep, me thinks
just going price for good
sex,
nowadays, for those
so desperate, to smile
away
their chosen drug of demise...)
lol
forgive my horribly warped
sense of humour, and
thanks for putting up with me
😌
(hope you n yours have a great week)

They Were Nothing But Fools
L. B. Mek said:

(showcasing great skill, dear Poet
worded, open to interpretation
yet, directing our flow to that
same river of poetic, introspection)
I seem to know these fool\'s innately
those who weave patterns, beyond
logic or consideration\'s
capacity, to comprehend
their zeal for cyclic, idiocy..
\'as i ask, every morning
mirror mirror, whose the fool
you know better than most
in reply, my face looks back
eyes clueless, to life\'s lessons...\'

The Tears of a Crowd Forming
L. B. Mek said:

\'of our tears
forming and falling, in some
kind of obscene
and collective defeat ..
Indeed ..
What began as a trickle,
now rages
outrageously, like a swift
flowing river\'
(so true, worded so acute)

\'So fight it, come closer
stand directly
behind me and hold fast
to my skirts
Oh’ and pray, keep both
your eyes tightly shut ..\'
(Ha! You lead I\'ll try n keep-up
dear wise Kilt loving, exhibitionist
😉)

\'Bouncing off
yellow stained cloth stars
haphazardly set
against a backdrop of hate ..
Just ripe for pinning
come morning, to writhing
grey mountains
piled high with blue striped
pyjamas ..\'
(We, MUST NEVER FORGET!
how it all started, with those
\'yellow stained cloth stars\'
to identify and BRAND
those, deemed inhuman
and hated, because
\'some\'
dogmatic text, millenniums ago
blamed them
for the murder of a character
labelled
as a deity creator, and \'Father\'
to all of existence
including, those very same Jews!
\'some\'
try to forget, by the logic of that
\'same\'
lore, they worship
how these very same Jews
are also \'HIS\' children...
yeah, what \'Father\' wouldn\'t appreciate
the MASS, attempted Genocide
of \'HIS children\'..
yeah, stuff that up your
self righteous, \'GOOD BOOK\'
you brainwashed zealot morons)

For sure women can also be violent and dangerous, but interestingly in literature and film they are usually portrayed as the femme fetal sensual types: and their abusive conduct is minimized: thanks for bringing another dimension to this archetype: was this intentional on Mother’s Day:)?

A haunt of a read Nev but a good reminder that not all smiles are meant to be kind - - shall now watch out more for mantis-types licking their lips before striking.......x

Now KP did this accidentally as she was trying to give me a shave. It\'s not that I won\'t bore you with the details of it, but that they will be too swoony to mention! lol.

The old saying \"one man\'s junk is another man\'s treasure\" comes to mind. I suppose we all judge according to our own sense of worth. Loved it!

Excellent write N.

The poem invites the reader to reflect on the nature of reality and the value of individual pursuits, while acknowledging the potential for others to view those pursuits as foolish.

“What began as a trickle.” Your phrase conjures visceral and tactile image and as you build the story we journey with and we learn. Nice write, great read. You got it going on.
P. S. I took the Title as a play on that famous Smokey Robinson song. “Just like Pagliacci did, I try to keep my sadness hid, smilin’ in the public eye , while in my lonely room I cry”

The Tears of a Crowd Forming
Fay Slimm. said:

That horror resurrected in prosaic clarity will bring shudders and more to those reading your avidly penned descriptions of the thirties with its despicable behaviour of uncaring insanity - - with lessons learnt the future should never produce sights and sounds of such crowds forming again --- or at least we hope so with all our heart............x

MendedFences27 said:

Amen!!
I\'ll add this though, \"in a world where no two things are ever the same, twins, clones, copies, any two things. I think we are lucky to just keep on spinning.
I hope the sentiment of your poem becomes universal. If we humans could just accept each other as human, then maybe we could move forward. But large egos get in the way and the \"self\" overtakes all other concerns. Love, Peace and Harmony. - Phil A.

Oh wouldn\'t that be wonderful if those things were just dark memories? I don\'t think we\'ll see this happen in our lifetimes, but I enjoyed the write very much! x

A fine write N.
My dilemma of course is: \'Why did I, what if I never, perhaps I shouldn\'t have, married KP! lol.
Do shut up Orch, says Fido.
I might allow one whale to be culled. A beached whale. Oh, it was KP sun-bathing! heehee.
