Soren, this carries a real weight…layered contradictions stacking up until it feels almost impossible to untangle. And that place between yesterday and what’s coming…yeah, that’s a hard space to stand in. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Brutal list of everything done too late. Watering grass in the rain, gun fired now disarm. That line \'how do you unknot a snarl with both ends fixed \' is perfect. Clean and merciless. Nicely written!!

Nicely said. Your poem explores themes of time, consequence, and the struggle to reconcile past actions with present realities. It reflects on the inevitability of change and the challenges posed by memories and regrets.

The unknotting seems a Gordian dilemma, keep the Damocles sword away and engage that physiotherapist of life🙏🏻🙏🏻

Soren, that sense of carrying something weightless yet present really stands out… it gives the whole piece a drifting, almost untethered feeling. It stays with you. Nicely done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It’s a strong piece, capturing that disoriented, post-escape feeling really well. The mix of lightness and loneliness comes through clearly. Very well written!!!

You should have given me a call, I could do with escaping.
I wonder how many people have done just that, just thought to themselves, stuff this I\'m off.

There is an immediate benefit from escaping one’s past and inner conflict thereby creating a sense of real lightness, but it may also lead to disconnection, unreality, and a loss of grounded identity. It appears that it never is a win-win 🕊️🙏

Nicely written. Your poem revolves around the act of moving on from one’s past, leaving behind physical possessions and emotional baggage. It touches upon themes of transformation, self-discovery, and the contrast between reality and illusion.

I wonder if your lungs
Were filled with the joy of memories
And if the smoke was sweet
As grandmas pies?
Just random thought.

I would, with reservations, support a modified form of your first proposition, Soren. Anyone found in possession of a gun – amputation of trigger finger (separate debate re amputation with or without anesthetic). Exempton for farmers, I suspect , though secure storage with severe penalties if found to be inadequate.
I cannot endorse your remaining suggestions; however your regular supporters will doubtless cover my inadequacies.

Soren, this is a powerful piece…what stands out is the relentless escalation. Each line raises the stakes, pushing the idea further and further until that closing turn hits with real weight. It’s stark, unflinching, and leaves an impression. Well written, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Spilt criticism
Durdica Porobija said:
The poem is gradually intoned with an increasingly intense nausea over the critical dissection and devaluation of emotional poetic confessions.
