Under the Battered Cap
L. B. Mek said:

wide-lensed in scope
comprehensive, in depth of profound insight
relatable in choice wording, to maximise accessibility;
quite simply, a wonderful Poetic portrait
of poignantly incisive commentary!
thank you, dear poet

Fay Slimm. said:

Believing we have control is a step in the right direction but oh what a battered cap we all wear - - I like the penultimate line too - - All that happens matters - - and so it does my friend and true.

I revel in obscure facts
L. B. Mek said:

sing, scream, ink as loud as you can
till all that\'s left
is that hoarse gravely whisper
of your actual, unfaced - truth
and then: begin... again!
as many times, as it takes
because, my friend
what else is there
for us Few, who Choose
to refuse hate: as A way of Life

Really liked this poem, Trenz, despite that I found it something of an enigma. Person or personification?
Separate issue: History, if we can agree to define as human activity, is rarely if ever random.

Naida\'s Evening
L. B. Mek said:

reminds me of tiptoeing out
with the door left ajar, after putting
an energetic troublemaker to bed
then silently, pensively
lurking outside the door
looking back, just to insure
they were not feigning being asleep
cos you know
if they don\'t get that timely rest
the waking-up wars, in the morning
will be unending... lol
(sorry for I\'ve hijacked
your original meaning for this write
to some unfathomed realm, of interpretation) lol
thanks for sharing, dear poet

... intrigue till the very end ...

\'We prefer the adventure of discovery
to the safety of knowledge;\'
\'Words, actions, even intent
depends upon
who does the viewing\'..
Amen!
profound observations, so accessibly worded
really well executed, dear poet

Wonderful, all encompassing, poetry.
Yes this is me, within your words, and all who have ever crossed my path.
Often in my thoughts are \'how does that person view my world, their world, our world\'.
You cover such a huge subject today and im thrilled to place this piece into my favourites when I have enjoyed re-reading it a few more times.

A fine, compassionate exploration of sameness/otherness, misunderstanding, and failure to perceive or imagine beyond our self-centered point of view. I like this very much.

I don\'t know if you and I sing the same songs Trenz, but I’ll tell you this – I really liked your piece. Many ideas floating in there each worthy of separate contemplation.

When We Did things Like This,
Neville said:


a series of splendid self disclosive recollections ..
my teepee was the one with the broken mandolin next to the kettle sitting on a pile of discarded roaches ................................... All Good Things,

When We Did things Like This,
Doggerel Dave said:

A great evocation of that time and place, Trenz.
As for advice to the lovelorn, I don’t know what to say….. commiserations?
Enjoyed the read very much. 😊

Naida -The love of my waning years.
L. B. Mek said:

brilliant!
who says that intricate halted-breath intimacy, is just for the young
what a defiant statement you\'ve penned, dear poet
tantalising words of wholesome sensuality, smashing that stereotype
into judgmental realms of ignorance\'s, obscurity:
\'fear stalls and fails away \'
\'only your breath on my neck\'..

Naida -The love of my waning years.
Goldfinch60 said:

Yesterday has passed, tomorrows not here yet so each moment is so precious in that breath on your neck.

To be old
L. B. Mek said:

\'To be old is\'
\'an example;
a folly
of misplaced ambitions\'
\'a repository: of wisdom.\'
(wonderful shorty, dear Poet
forgive me for rearranging your lines
I mean no disrespect, by doing so
just sharing the wisdom
your poem: conveyed to me)

Doggerel Dave said:

Good stuff , Trenz - something which is greeted with deep recognition by me.
My only antidote is to keep repeating to self, \'Live for the here and now\'.

Life’s a river of memory  and yearning. 
L. B. Mek said:

\'Reread them
now and then
confirming
my existence.
Forgetting
one’s past
is a form of death.\'
truly wise words you share, dear poet

So true but what you need to remember that with age our brains are so full that when we gain new knowledge some of the old knowledge falls off the other end.
