I love metaphorical bashing of metaphors. Those obtuse passages demand too much processing power of my outdated CPU. Energy consumption should be reduced for sustainable living...so less metaphorical excursion into the blackhole of artistic indulgence. Loved the poem.

Is this a metaphorical poem, or a literal one? (If \'literal\' and \'metaphorical\' are opposites?). What is Orchi on about now?!
All I know about metaphors is when someone asked me: \'Why did you meet her for?\' Corny joke there! lol.

I\'m struggling with understanding some metaphors, and also iambic pentameters - if I knew what they are, that is! lol.

Not very well, I suspect. Like many gamers and their real offline lives. Much conjecturing on my part though.

Read one of you previous poems and you mentioned \'copilot\'. Had to look it up.
Thought it might be that blow-up thing from \'Airplane\' . Now I know. Prefer to use my Brain.
\'You can\'t call me AI\' as Paul Simon wouldn\'t say.

Now Dave I think you may be mistaken in who you think this is. Regardless although I know your bark to be worse than your bite others might not. Let me pet that loveable old head of yours and tell you everything is all right.

Terse is right. How to say? Left me chewing my nails (something I never did) for quite a while.

My friend, this hits sharp. “Capitalism doesn’t make you free”...that line cut straight through, simple and undeniable. You call out the necrosis without apology, and the quiet path you name speaks volumes. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛ Very well done and a fave...erm...Dave. 😅🤣

It is so much better to think outside the box Dave, the mind then thinks of proper ways in life.

That callback to polio really struck me, Dave. It grounds the urgency in lived history…making the plea now impossible to ignore. Well delivered, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Another wave of illness noted a poem of warning to take preparation, always wise to protect oneself without causing a stampede. Nicely stated Dave

There are many games and far too many players... the world is in our loungeroom and for some in the boudoir. Hope you are doing well.

Oh Dave you got my private message then, you knew I was missing you. I must of sent it mistakenly under a false name. I really do miss you when you are not around, this place is just not the same.

Ah, but ahem, caveat first: my extreme lack of sleep painfully eliminates my ability to think clearly, even when filling the pot for tea an hour or so ago. That said, you blocked her?! She\'s actually nice. I still tag after the poets/poetess who blocked me nearly a year ago now. It\'s the \"happy\" reality of this medium. Excellently rendered with a haunting poignancy, thank you for sharing.

I quite like the idea of a robot writing for me while I\'m down the pub.
