I understand how passionately you feel about this subject. Not knowing what triggered this piece, I can only say that there is a real difference between victimization, and trying to hold onto a relationship that is probably unhealthy. One is based on fear and control, the other perhaps misguided feelings of love. I suppose people will always feel the need to express their feelings either way, as you bravely have yours.

This was a gem that I was not aware of. So true, we did not ask to come here., at least that\'s what my children always told me as they were growing up.

Passion is the driving force not love and the need to feel loved and accepted get in the way. Unfortunately many fall into this trap and can not find their way out.

Editorial note: I\'m top of the pops at MPS (see \'Trending now\'). Never happened before.....
Those happy controllers back stage really shouldn\'t encourage me.... 😇

Over the years, some trolls have effected me more than others - but when I realized my reaction was the food that they lived on I stopped feeding them (or just blocked a few of the worst offenders). A fresh write, Dog, enjoyed bringing it to mind.

The subject you opened with your poem is very complex. Everything starts with the society one lives in. And how is the world doing today on a social care scale? I\'m not talking about financial support here but general care, education and rights of all the people in one community. Are countries investing in prevention of potential social problems or are they just pushing everything under the rug and opening a way for individuals to profit from misfortune that could have been prevented?
Let\'s not forget the human component in all of this as well as sociological. Nothing is simple with humans, you can have a vision of input and reaction that in reality would not happen. Free will is very unreliable factor in the equation that at first can seem very simple and efficient.

Statues - a Rhymeless Rant
Iva Hotko said:

History is an interesting word and although people would like it to be black and white it\'s actually an endless shade of gray.
History form whose point of view?
I lived through the war in my country, and although I was a child things stuck with me. There are many truths about the things that happened in that war but what do the history books say and the media for that matter as well? What ever fits the frame at hand, to be honest. It was always like that, history servers those in power to use it and change it as they see fit. Let\'s not forget that some still live in one version of their history.

I have read that sunlight it will turn a troll to stone. The trick is to use the right bate to lure him from his cave. Good Luck!

Top to bottom totally meaningless,
I am shocked by the poet\'s ignorance,
How can he write such paltry songs?
Read his poem to get utter confusion,
An expert in writing ridiculous poems?
His poems teach how not to write poems?

Trolls they seem like they have multiplied these days. I\'m glad that I\'m not the only one that has noticed. Population control may be the answer.

Statues - a Rhymeless Rant
mvvenkataraman said:

The format of the poem itself is damn ugly,
The mind of the poet is in a confused state,
He writes utter nonsense to feel proud,
Reading his poem will spoil the brain,
Those who write good poem will blunder,
If they happen to read his senseless poems,
He must first join PreKg in poetry
And learn gradually to write poems,
The license to write poems is free,
So, such foolish poets start writing,
And imagine themselves to be geniuses,
What a chaos and disorder in his ideas???

Disaster Trumps Competition.
mvvenkataraman said:

These eight lines deserve to enter trash,
He has no imagination to coin wise poems,
He is wasting his lifetime meaninglessly,
Very pathetic to see such a foolish poet,
I am sorry to see such a bad poet here,
He deserves the title, \"Worst Poet\" surely?

Disaster Trumps Competition.
mvvenkataraman said:

The poet blindly rhymes with no meaning,
He thinks rhyming the last word is poetry,
He must get out of the poem writing job,
Mustn\'t confuse other poets to spoil them,
Better he first read the poems of everyone,
And learn from them the way to write poems?

Concerning Some ‘C’ Words.
mvvenkataraman said:

When poets watch nature like trees and flowers,
This poet watches keenly the bums of dogs,
What an attitude and what a taste?
God alone must cure his dog-bum mind,
He is a disgrace to poetic community?

Balance.
mvvenkataraman said:

This is no poetry, but totally useless words,
The poet doesn\'t know how to write poems,
He seems to have no poetry sense at all,
His words clearly prove his empty mind?

The Kimono (Madam Butterfly not here).
sorenbarrett said:

Dave this one led me in several directions. I guess in all the smoke I couldn\'t find the doors. As the last door opened and the smoke cleared it left an image branded in my brain. Amusing Dave.

The Kimono (Madam Butterfly not here).
Doggerel Dave said:

So there you have it: Madam Butterfly was not involved in the making of this story.
Third line disclosure: discovered bottom of old suitcase I hadn’t opened in years, the kimono a present from my mother thirty years ago after her Japan trip. No hanky-panky with Madam Butterfly.
I thank you for your call: but understand right from the beginning, Madam Butterfly had absolutely nothing to do with this piece (how many times do I have to tell ya….??)

Dave the rich would say it\'s merely natural selection or survival of the fittest. I on the other had would agree with you, Marx proposed communism, it didn\'t work... got any ideas?
