By far the best written poem on this sight for months. I completely take off my hat to you for this one. It\'s put professionally and elegantly with a perfect voice. This is hands down my favorite. I appreciate your work.

Powerful Poem, Soren, your poem is a treasure trove of vivid imagery, painting breathtaking scenes like \"wadded white water\" and \"made my bed with snakes.\" These images evoke a profound sense of the speaker\'s turbulent life, inspiring us to reflect on our own journeys. The \"wasp nest\" serves as a powerful metaphor for self-inflicted pain or conflict, illuminating the complexity of self-discovery. The phrase \"others thought me odd\" gives a sense of external judgment, highlighting societal perceptions of normalcy and encouraging us to embrace our individuality. The rhythm adds a melodic quality to the poem, uplifting our spirits. Soren, sometimes we get caught up in our own little world and never realize how others are rising above their struggles in life and just need our empathy and understanding, and most of all, knowing that their feelings are truly valid.

You know the old saying… “You don’t have to be crazy to belong here… but it helps.” Isn’t it true that a little “crazy” helps you stay sane. Thanks for the fun, Soren, enjoyed the read.

Had a season or so of such living, much like many a young adult in the 50s, 60s, and even the 70s. Calls to mind such names as McQueen, Dean, Brando, etc. 🙏🏻🕊

A risk taker I would say and without that some opportunities would slip by and be lost forever. This is such a fun poem and I love that a little crazy can keep you sane. Now setting yourself on fire, now that’s a different league altogether. I will admit to talking to God before I found out he wasn’t listening:) Much enjoyed sorenbarrett. Happy Wednesday.

Soren, this is a masterful weaving of myth and metaphor. You’ve spun a \"web of words\" that captures the essence of poetry, punishment, and the lingering threads of memory. The way you’ve connected Arachne’s tale to the poet’s craft is brilliant, my friend! Your final stanzas weave vivid designs of memories clinging like cobwebs, once intricate patterns now broken and floating. I resonate with that...a powerfully evocative reflection on the fragility of our past and the stories we tell. Beautifully crafted, my friend. This gets a fave for sure. 🌹👏

Your poem masterfully weaves together classical mythology and personal reflection, transforming the story of Arachne into a powerful exploration of memory, loss, and transformation. By drawing on this myth, you convey a sense of longing for lost connections and past relationships, while also illuminating the human capacity for resilience and growth. The imagery of webs and threads skillfully symbolizes the fragility and beauty of memories, highlighting the importance of embracing our experiences and learning from them. Your work inspires empathy and introspection, inviting readers to reflect on the transformative power of memory and the impact of lost connections on our lives. How can we harness the emotional weight of our memories to fuel positive change and growth?

Cobwebs cling to me, lingering threads of what used to be
Memories broken pulled away glisten in the light of day
Strands once woven with care, fragments sticky tickle of despair
Pieces of what once was home now floating in air do roam

Wow! Soren, that’s all I can say is WOW. Great wording and writing. I hung there suspended on threads of the web, remembering. Thanks for sharing this great piece of art.

Good write SB. I find Greek mythology stories eccentric, weird, horrific too in places. They are surely only myths. There are some horrible things in some of the stories.
