my word you amaze me sir how well you know your stuff ...
I was horrified but sadly, not surprised by the reference to what was more than just a near miss on 7th May this year ... thankfully no one is believed to have suffered life changing injuries in the latest inferno ..
although it is impossible to guess the agonies those who lost the roof over their heads and all their possessions .. is it even possible to adequately compensate them .......

Are we associating the opposition of the rights of tower block residents to be compensated by at fault manufacturers with the right of UK residents to have the defense of \'mutual assured destruction\' waved in the face of any foreign aggressor?
Why so, when both are a necessity?

A mesmeric rendering of love\'s first addictions L.B. - and in your own style of imagery so well worth adding to my list of favourites.

.. if we could have got there first and smacked a copywrite on it .. no doubt we would have made a mint
.. as it stands tho\' the original ancient Indian Sanskrit text closely followed by the first ever Japanese Pillow Book pipped us both to the post ... your manual however shows incredible promise and is significantly more than just a good read ............................... N

Hmm difficult. I would not choose to dictate to another how they should love me. For in loving them i would be welcoming their own ways of loving me.
I\'m reminded of Goldfinch\'s poem today..... is this where my truth gets me into troubles?

\"Repetition\" can be a useful poetic tool or it can ruin a poem. Here the partial repetition if your line endings adds to the poems value, It demonstrates for the reader exactly what the poem is trying to convey. Interesting read. - Phil A.

Poetic Dan said:
In a world that has abundance it is truly sad that our beautiful minds and talent still don\'t create balance before fashion or the next gadgets to be had.
Saddest human fact we struggle to learn until its gone!
Always a fantastic reminder to see how privileged most of us are, even with mental battle scars.

A fine reminder and well expressed in your verse ;here L.B. - - we are truly fortunate with gifts like fresh water to drink while across the ocean its lack causes suffering - to sponsor a well-dig for a small village is one way to help - - thank you for bringing World Water Day more to our attention my friend.

So very true Mek, we are so fortunate in our lives but those without water can be helped if only those in power would climb down from their ivory towers and see the real world.

‘I speak to paper’: to tame, my surrender
Gary Edward Geraci said:
I enjoyed the chase required of me so that I might, at least partially, come to understand your intellectual/philosophical poem. Yes, I had to look up both the philosopher and the French language used. This was enjoyable and so I thank you for the well thought out sentiments conveyed here. While I’m more inclined now (and experienced) to freely offer myself to others without any anticipation of payback - this was learned - and initially willed - against the forces of an objecting human nature. So self-love is partially responsible even in practicing the virtue of religion. But then the unmerited grace of God begins to assist and one really becomes cognizant of changes in oneself that go beyond that which could have been personally willed ... ah, it’s better experienced than described. And that’s my constant challenge as a poet, perhaps yours as well.
