Fine words soren showing the troubles we see to have in this world, we were all born on the same world and should be seen as true members of that world and not be segregated.

Wonderful poem Soren. Why must we be forced to choose and push away a part of ourselves? Not such a “free” country anymore. Choose our culture or where we live. If you choose either you face hate from both sides, a very strong conflict many of us are dealing with.

Soren, I appreciate the honesty in this… the refusal to let others force a choice between things that both belong to you. Life rarely fits into the neat divisions people demand. The poem honors that complexity with real grace. The ending carries that spirit well. “are joined in a world family today.” Thoughtful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Wow I did not know about the exclusive citizenship act… it feels like we’re going backwards! We should be citizens of earth!
Sigh nonetheless, great poem Soren

This is sadly happening in many countries, pressurizing people to conform to other people\'s beliefs and values or be cast aside. Americans do not seem to understand that they are all descended from immigrant blood and I would say they they therefore all have dual nationality genes in them. Unless you are from a indigenous tribe you are not a true American, I hope people like yourself continue to fight against the attempt to eradicate peoples heritage, belief and values to conform to one persons belief, I think history shows this doesn\'t end well, when one person attempts to do that.

This isn\'t an emotional thing at all, is it? You would by now have resolved the contributions offered to you in terms of genes and cultures by each parent, I suspect.
This then becomes a piece of bureaucratic bullshit which perhaps may limit your freedom of travel, or at least make it more difficult.

I get the feeling that Trump is behind all this. Dual citizenship should be something to be proud of not something to regret. No-one can be blamed for what parent they have.An interesting poem I like the rhyme and thoughtfulness.Well written

In a world family I don\'t believe !

But still a enjoyable Rollercoaster during the process. Can drive you Mad sometimes; but satisfyingly when finished.

Wow Soren. The imagery and emotion in this poem is so vivid. I think you’ve captured exactly why many of us write poetry aside from a hobby, it’s to escape. Very well done.

Bleak beauty carved from pain, every line a wound made to breathe.
You bleed the soul onto paper, gritty, unflinching, alive.

You must solve the riddle posed by the dragon at the threshold before entering the temple of dementia .
Without doing so ,you will remain nothing more than a troubadour of the gentle month of may !

Your poem explores the complex relationship between humanity and nature, questioning the moral superiority of human values in the face of nature\'s inherent brutality and diversity. You highlight the interconnectedness of all life forms and critique the tendency of humans to view themselves as separate from or above the natural world.

Soren, this is a philosophical mirror held up to humanity. The minnow, the ants, the wolf and deer…each image builds the case steadily. By the time we reach “Nature will always be, a far greater force than humanity” it feels less like a claim and more like a reminder. Thought-provoking and bold, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
