\"palms of ridicule with spit\" and \"one final taste of mercy washed away\" highlight a powerful yet poignant write. Nice work.

Well it\'s certainly sounds dark.
A kind of unravelling I sense.
But then again, I haven\'t got a clue!
Intriguing though.

Amazing lines dear Melvin, and as you have always done you bring your poem to a magnificent end,
I\'d like to leave some favourite lines that I just think magnificent
to roll my eyes somewhere inside
the open jars of flannels
for the cleansing hands of rich and yellow corn.
the dead shall rise once more
with tempers dull enough
to cross the palms of ridicule with spit.
my very own gravesend
it\'s iron\'s strong enough
to hold the seeds of a suicidal wren
Kudos my dear friend.

Now here is a piece with metaphoric quicksand so attractive that it shines in its own darkness. Knowing certain death I hypnotically with full free will march into its certain death. Such great lines in this poem they shine reflecting my ignorance of their meaning but sufficient to revel in their beauty. Nicely done

Believe me today I\'ve been doing much reflecting on social politics and on the way one can live as a king and another in a gutter, I\'ve been thinking a lot about acceptance and the very difference in cultures and indeed class. This is a fabulous provoking piece dear Melvin, powerful and very poetic 🌹

Fun words fill this poem with fantasy? Maybe deep metaphor? They are beyond my meager intellect to comprehend. I gather a bit of Alice here and yet much more. Here Mother Mary kisses all that sleep (religious?) Mind boggling but offering a good deal of pleasure.

I read several times, and each time something jumped out at me; not having the courage of convictions, \"staid beneath consortium of liberal and grief never tall enough to march with the whistle-blowers\", but accepting the gobbldygook. Wow, what imagery!

Incongruous combinations puzzle the mind and numb the brain bringing a smile the spirit to tame. Loved it.

How Un-Easy It Stands, This Sublime.
Dan Williams said:
So many good lines to pick from, like \"the seventh earl of constant shade and myth still spreads his wings of thyme and hyacinth\". Very well done.

We all see what we want to see but all is never as it seems, no one can ever truly see the soul of another all the triumphs and all the disappointments and all the pain. A magnificent piece of poetry. 🌹

I feel somehow this poem hints of an evolution yet incomplete, just the feeling it gives me, I may be way off. But I love the thought provoking essence of it. A mind bender of the first magnitude.

I like the play of opposites here, a strong underpinning for this poem that for me supports the folly of our beliefs. Good write my friend!
