I don\'t think we can have \'Circus\' all the time. We have other emotions too, I believe.

Life...I Have The Key To This Cage - 1
L. B. Mek said:
I don\'t know dear Poet, while I agree in your capacity to judge
what\'s best for yourself
pointedly - rude questions drum-away, demanding they be shared..
see, some people invest every penny they earn
and see it digitally - vaporise, their sense of self-worth
when that inevitable \'Bust\', comes crashing down
through, obviousness\'s selfish curtains..
while some people, invest every ounce of goodness they posses
within those they gift with a disproportional - stake
of their, heart\'s: capacity to love;
then watch, as painful bruises shrink their heart
into a shadow of its previous ability to love
when once nourishing relationships, are twisted by ill-fate
into poisonous pools: of festering regret,
and then, some people
remain too scared, to let anyone take advantage of us
waiting for that perfect day, when our defences
can cope, all that promised pain we\'ve read about
only - sometimes, that perfect day
arrives too late and our last blink of life, rushed-by
quicker than most, because all it has to reflect-on
are just dreamed wishes and hopes
nothing that\'s painful - yet rewardingly: real...!

theology out of Society\'s
ideologically foggy, stereotyped fearmongering

Joker is this a poem or a plea, I could not tell which? As a poem, it is a fine exposition of despair. Frightening in a way. As a plea, we must all listen to our hearts as you suggest.

yup, we all cluster and create, however temporary or permanent
pockets of self-encircling tribes, I assume its in our DNA makeup for survival,
still, becoming aware of our social patterns, is a huge step of progress
on our path towards self-awareness..
(for me, at least)
a really intriguing read, you have such a distinct writing style

I understand
It\'s like a marrige.
Sometime I want to go back to the me I used to be..not be responsible only for myself
Sometimes it\'s as if breathing is rushed .

poetry, at least for me: is so many things
but mostly, it represents that age old tradition
of our mind\'s capacity for unsurpassable imagery
nurtured by our acquired skill of untethered creativity..

To Say That ‘I AM A JOKER’...Is Not About Ego
dusk arising said:
A joker, a clown, a facade, a defence mechanism. Not the real person but the real person is still present with all the sentiments and desires of any human. It would be easy to fall into cliches here but cliches are often quite inapropriate.

that introverted quality - necessary, for us to have the removed distance - needed
to observe and study our surroundings naturally,

how far: is far?
I can travel back centuries, with a mere flip of a page

You Tell Me...Circus or Forest?
L. B. Mek said:
the most creative and purposed use of acrostic poetry
I have seen in a while! a good read..
write\'s like yours are hope\'s raindrops
to ease our fury
so be it clown or circus antics
so long as you choose
to believe and strive for the best
of that potential you possess
in each sipped breath, well
it will all look a little more fun
in that rear view mirror
whenever you take a break
from laughing out loud
in the face of fate...

there is an underlying tension of hesitation caused by trepidation for what those answers may be, a contradictory tone to these brave words of self excavation, adding that typically human vulnerability of relatability

I WANT TO RISE
L. B. Mek said:
good to read, soon - dear poet
when you begin to soar, remember
to reach-out and help those looking up with feet planted in their quicksand, of ill-fated circumstance
for that is how we can all survive..
fixing ourselves - first (as best we can) and striving for our dreams whilst still:
maintaining that grounded humility and coming back to help those - lost, in that maze of life..
