This provokes curiosity and curiosity killed the cat. But then satisfaction revived it.

Venting on the state of affairs, I see. The sharing of wealth is an age-old problem. Fascism on one hand and Communism on the other. Democracy is in the middle, trying to maintain a balance. Seems the scales are tipping these days toward the Fascist side.
Your write draws attention to some of the results of this conflict. Housing is a problem propagated.by the ever-increasing population. Thanks for calling out this situation. - Phil A.

I think you did a great job expressing yourself in this piece. I totally get your frustration. Some may not like your write. But, whatever one thinks, they must agree it is poetry, well done.

Notice of absence

Walking the beaches of south Brazil I have seen penguins but usually just those too weak to run or those that perished and washed up on the sand. I think this goes a little deeper. I have known people that have heard I was comming to visit and were not home when I arrived.

The Antipodean Adventures of Jack the Lad.
sorenbarrett said:

This was a great read. It read like a book, was short as an article, smelled of a poem and tasted of a short film. With all that said I leave satisfied and full until the next visit. Thanks for the meal.

There is no truth it changes each day
If only people would this realize
Then there would be no fights with what people say
And there would be no more black eyes.
Loved the song.

If not the government, the church, private entrepreneurs (present day pirates) mind you I have nothing against a good honest pirate. It seems that one hasn\'t a chance. Jefferson said that there should be a revolution every twenty years. It is long overdue.

There is so much truth in what you\'ve said. It seem these days that the accumulation of wealth is unharnessed in a most destructive way. Your social conscience is most admirable, and we need such voices. Kudos!

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.

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???

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?
