Tree\'s being so important to our planet. As a metaphor of Man works incredibly well too, Beautifully done dear sorrenbarret, Tree\'s and humans aren\'t all that different in the end. 🌹

Someone said, \"You\'re going to leave this world just as evil as you found it.\" Those Bodhisattvas have an almighty task on their hands! Having said that, the \"next round\" is said to take place within a higher octave, giving all of us miserable souls even more of a helping hand (and a kick up the backside?!).

Very nicely written. I agree war is evil. Always escalates. And is not good for anybody. The things we fight for is at the point of international embarrassment. Your prose summed it up for me petfectly.

I wish poems like this never needed to be written by people like us, but sadly they have to be because of devastation some people still want to inflict on others in order to justify their own beliefs. Who ever thought the world would have to worry and be more scared of the American presidents thoughts and action, rather than China and Russia, but here we are watching him slowly dismantle the world at whatever cost it takes. Not to mention lining his own and his billionaire pals pockets even more while going to war. Much needed and well written write.

I feel this is much deeper than appears on first read and could be interpreted in a few ways. For myself i connect it with the trauma and conflict that is thriving round the world at the moment and the the thousands of people who are genuinely being driven down a one way road, wonderful write, pleasure to read.

It\'s so true. I often wonder how children that can be born with so much love turn into adults with so much hate. In such an environment it\'s not surprising, but the cycle continues no matter who runs it, and there you have the empty promises of a better future.
Here is the truth, which poets cry until death, but literature is unappreciated.

Well written. Your poem revolves around the grim realities of war, political corruption, and religious hypocrisy. It depicts the brutal consequences of these societal elements and critiques the failure of humanity to embrace compassion and love.

A stark and thought‑provoking piece. The honesty and intensity of the imagery make a strong impact. The poem’s directness makes its message hard to ignore.

The man
Waiting for Silence said:
From the day kid puts first step on earth till settled in career, father takes care of him. Doesn\'t cry doesn\'t complain doesn\'t share grief. Always a provider regardless of job, no job, hungry or eat one meal and still become the villain. doesn\'t display love but his actions speak louder. fathers are mostly respected after they are dead and kid becomes father. Mothers given status of Goddess and Fathers die alone after he is not needed any more.
Well Written.

My god is more powerful than your god, so I\'m allowed to kill you outright in the name of my god.
The arms trade is worth billions. Countries you wouldn\'t dream of are involved. Countries like Switzerland, always neutral, but not in the arms trade.
I would imagine if the strait doesn\'t open soon, Iran won\'t be on the map anymore, and the world will be choosing sides to fight with.

There is so much hatred in the world everywhere I look it\'s a sad thing to witness but I guess we have always had such, it\'s just so much easier to see now. A fabulous powerful write filled with truth and disgrace of the way things are. 🌹

Mark Twain understood madmen best, but he would not give an exact number. I like how this poem, somewhere in its depths, approaches the unsayable. A pleasure.
