How sad and painful everything this beautiful text describes. Excellent writing, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Deep down, I\'d like to think it\'s the escape of a mind fused with the poetic metaphysics of fictional literature, not the cruel reality. Thank you for sharing. Best regards.

Your poem revolves around the horrors and moral complexities of war, specifically the use of atomic bombs during World War II. It critiques the glorification of warfare and the devastating consequences it has on humanity, as illustrated by the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The poet emphasizes the futility of fighting and the immense loss of life that results from the pursuit of power and destruction.

Hello, Peto,

The horror of these two bombs is unimaginable and beyond comprehension. What\'s even more harrowing, after they were dropped, every major power wanted one. This is a beautiful genre of poetry and you apply it with deft authority and a flair for the poetics. Excellent.

Kind regards,

Tony.

A haunting reminder of the horrific event of the past but also that war is hell for all, the history books will name a winner but in reality there are never any winners, nicely expressed and written

In these tercets with a caping rhyme to form a quatrain you tell the story of the A-bomb and the horror that took so many lives. History is always written by the winner. War is hell and despite what they tell you there are no rules if you want to win. It is never a war crime the first time. A fine write with wonderful creative rhyme.

Look but no touch doesn\'t get you much. Rev the engine then let out the clutch. Not sure what that means but I enjoyed your poem.

Well written, my friend, a powerful poem. Your poem explores the duality of a woman\'s experience—her fragility contrasted with her strength. It portrays her as a \"wallflower,\" suggesting she is often overlooked or underestimated, yet she possesses an inner resilience and a desire for agency. The recurring imagery of tears, battles, and transformation illustrates her journey through emotional turmoil and societal expectations.

Your poem seems to revolve around a woman who embodies both the roles of a dancer and a juggler, suggesting a performance of life where she orchestrates relationships to fulfill her desires while dealing with her low self-esteem and the consequences of her actions.
