The Grieving Silence of An Empty House
L. B. Mek said:
silence is a language
I study, earnestly
I am at one with solitude
because, silence
speaks to me, guides me
assures me, pausing
waiting, planning is also
part of my progression
that\'s where meditation
is born out of..
\'we should never judge
but strive to understand\'
what a great message, Hyung
hope you and your loved ones
have a Sun kissed weekend
adorned by smiles and light
hearts..
Salut mi amigo 🍻

The Sound of Darkness
L. B. Mek said:
to appreciate, that gifted \'Home\'
in our lives, is the first glimpse
of wisdom, blossoming in our lives
(I choose to believe)
Brilliant!
may that darkness be swallowed
by the light of your defiant Hope
before
it reaches your doors, my friend 🙏

no tattoos or piercings yet for me
but when \'she\' arrives
she can ink me like a blank canvas..
in hope we entrust
dear Poet supreme
(a most soothing read)

Ghetto Girls
L. B. Mek said:
it seems every new rapper
was once a stripper...
world labels her a success
showers her with money and praise
ignores, what it cost
what she had to endure to arrive
at this place/space..
and so nothing is done
that path is left unchecked, like
a training regime
and here comes another 16 year old
hiding her age, learning
to ignore those eyes and dollar bills
tainting her soul
and how worthless and cheap
they make her feel
because , she knows
outside, on every other street corner
worse fate\'s await...
(this is why i RAGE at this world
every fckin inch a Hypocrisy
with spineless, seedy intent
All this fckin vermin\'s
\'Working to protect their mothers
daughters, and sisters\'
then turning around
and violating every other girl they see
with their eyes..)
I RAGE
(a most dispirited, impotent
!RAGE!)

Silent...cries? Wondering if they\'re being heard? Silence can say a lot more than we realize...and it sounds to me like, with this deafening quietness, there\'s still...hope. A ray of light...an open door? Maybe it\'s just my glass half full personality that sees it. But, what do I know! Loved it! 💜

Recent discussions? A bit Zen? Don\'t you do that alone?
I feel the mood...just not sure which are the factual events...or should I be minding my own business?

Sadly beautiful with an invite that your door is forever open. I know about losing love and your last lines are stunning. ❤️

Good write N.
I heard the sound of silence. KP blew the telly up, so we had to watch each other all evening - in silence! I thought I was watching a horror film about trouts. Can\'t stand her for more than 5 minutes usually. lol.

The Sound of Darkness
Bella Shepard said:
I can\'t help but see one who is preparing to leave this world. The darkness forming, yet a flicker of light lingers, the lover by his side, sharing those final moments. But fear not, the darkness is calling him, back home again. The Sound of Darkness is expressed in beautiful words and sentiment, and a credit to this poet.

\"Darkness\" has a \"sound\" when that sound is of a pending storm.
Your poem, to me, seems to indicate some sort of upheaval. Like maybe the end of a great vacation or returning to a long-ago home. Enjoyed this one. - Phil A.

I expected this to go in a completely different direction
Going by the title
Nicely done
May even have heard a hint of light

Neville, yes, I do hear it. So.....familiar. BUT, like you stated, we do continue to smile, because...what other choice do we have? I\'ve learned to....look at it straight in the face! Many times I curse at it!! You have hit a nerve for me...thank you! 💜

The central theme of the poem revolves around the dual nature of darkness – both as a foreboding force and a source of comfort and familiarity.

So, laughing tatoos is a creative image, as is this entire poem. Just think of the possibilities if we could animate our tatoos. A great whimsical read for me today. Thanks - Phil A.

This has the aesthetic of a Georges Méliès movie-I specially was enchanted by the ‘sun pinned on the turquoise sky’ -the implicit meaning of sharing ink in (tattoos)-very imaginative and impressive, this one, Neville

It\'s a sad truth you write of here, but as I tell my kids, \"It is what it is\", meaning we can\'t alter the past nor change what has to be done, just in order to live. Thought provoking and quite a write.

You know....I don\'t know why I immediately thought \"you gotta do, what you gotta do\"! That\'s why I try really hard not to judge people. You never know! Oh and, this title though. I was thinking, hell I can be SUPER ghetto...if I want to be, OR really professional. Depends on the situation!! Great one, as always! Making me really think here!! 💜
