The Song
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Paul, I\'ve known what it\'s like to have certain thoughts or memories replay themselves endlessly, refusing to stay quiet. Reading this brought that feeling back to me immediately. A haunting piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Well done. Your poem explores themes of mental turmoil, the struggle with self-control, and the concept of fate. It presents a narrative of a person facing a dire emotional and psychological crisis, grappling with thoughts of violence and self-destruction.

I love the effect of the repeating lines in this style that seems to have grown quite popular lately. It leaves a somber and heavy feeling. Nicely done Paul

Paul, this speaks to me. I\'ve found that grief rarely moves in a straight line. One moment you\'re remembering with a smile, and the next you\'re looking back hoping for one more sign, one more conversation, one more moment. Thank you for sharing this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The crying in the night seems the grief of loss with the darkness symbolizing absence. Well written Paul it calls out to the living. Well done

Your poem explores themes of grief, loss, and the process of mourning. It highlights the emotional turmoil that accompanies the death of a loved one and the quiet reflection that often occurs during nighttime, a time associated with solitude and introspection.

Nowhere Man
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Paul, this is one heck of a poem. The rhythm carries it forward beautifully, and the portrait of the nowhere man remains intriguingly out of focus throughout. The more you learn about him, the less certain he seems to become...which feels exactly right for a character like this. Excellent write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Paul the title reminded me of the Beatles song with the same title. Nicely written is speaks of what appears to be a person but with rereading may be metaphoric for something other than human. He may be nothing more than an archetype that exists in us all. Well done my friend

Mr McIntosh
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Paul, what a fun read! 😄 Every time I thought I knew where this was headed, you sent the story off in a different direction. I will admit one disappointment, however...I spent the entire piece hoping Mr. McIntosh would meet Granny Smith. Alas, some stories end in tragedy. 🤣 🍎🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The Child Has Gone
sorenbarrett said:
A wonderful poem with a powerful message that can be taken multiple ways depending on you point of view. One parents should watch more closely, two the world is a dangerous place children need close supervision, three the child in playing a joke had it backfire and justice was served. I prefer to see it as a most unfortunate set of circumstances that should be shared with other children to avoid future problems. Well done

Paul, this hit me hard. Four lines, yet it carries the force of something much larger. The contrast between physical power and the power of ideas lands immediately and leaves an impression. Powerful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Indeed in large print and so true the gun may only wound but the pen will bleed you dry as any banker or attorney will tell you. Nicely written and a fave. At least it is not in fine print

Paul, you got me with this one. The back-and-forth is absolutely delightful...every time it feels like one person gains the upper hand, the other fires right back. I found myself laughing all the way through. Wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This seems like a bump in the road, soon recovered and only a few screws loose. Maybe a rattle or two but nothing serious unless you count a blown engine. The car will be around for a while just call a tow truck.

Paul, I’ve known poems where grief speaks loudly, but what struck me here is how quietly this one carries it. The sorrow flows like the river you describe…steady, patient, and impossible to ignore. This one lingered with me. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
