Hi, this is such a great poem and sad too. I love this line \"I threw them from the train, left them to their own derailment\".

\'There is no vaccine against the calamity of greed befriending indifference and coming to existence through a strain of human stupidity, transmitted easily. Laying waste to communities and an ecology.\'
A pertinent yet tender painting of reverie you\'ve shared dear Poet, a truly mesmeric read...

Werther\'s Lament
Robert Southwick Richmond said:
For a very different take on The Sorrows of Werther, see this poem by William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-63).

but see what that\'s yielded, from those twists of fate pulling our unsuspecting mind\'s to those shallow states of discomfort, we cultivate an understanding that shines our focus on all the good we readily ignore, as clouds - slide with time, to switch our perception of horizon\'s and we\'re left pondering: what ever happened to taint the majesty within twilight\'s - to have us blink past their wonder: busily,
traversing robotically from A to B and back to A, endlessly...
a great write in your signature immersive style dear Poet,
thanks for inspiring my little scribbled reply,
Happy holidays 🍻

This speaks to me of a certain acceptance of the journey and all it entails... Both the good and the bad. Knowing it is all part of the process. Quite a visual piece too. Enjoyed this one.

This poem is too damn good. One of the best poems I\'ve read on here since my year of joining this site. Every line is thoughtful, and in my case, relatable. A poem I wish I could\'ve written myself. Very Walt Whitman of you! X

L. B. Mek said:
brilliantly executed, a stream of consciousness penned with acute social commentary and insightful musings of alternatives to all the dreary that threatens to choke the merry out of 2020,
I\'m with you dear Poet, let us fight back and reach for what little respite we can salvage,
who ever said what comes next will be any better? Let\'s \'choose\' to make the best of \'what now\' we can grasp and let tomorrow backpack our burdens, at least for the last few days of this accursed year anyway!
what comes next? well those fear mongers have that covered already...

Change is recognition, yet we are so resistant.
A poetic introspection for me.
