The whittler of words has created a piece that comes from the heart, the very root of the amateur. Beautiful in soul, as is this poem dear friend.

What more is there to do other than try, Soren? Neatly summarised.

Doggerel Dave said:

Sorely tempted to leave this one completely alone Soren, as it covered so adequately the urge by men to build giant erections.....
BTW: Found my school ruler, looked at it and put it at the bottom of my bottom desk drawer.... A well writ piece of fun.

L. B. Mek said:

the s sounds to your rhyme
mimic the crawl of a snake
if you read this out loud
which seamlessly highlights
impact of your very last words
\'...a living thing\'
(a subtle touch, really well thought-out
a great read, dear Poet)

To beat the band (Ode to Lewis Carroll)
Doggerel Dave said:

About two thirds, I think.
You are a serial lister aren\'t you? (Killer \'About Me\', BTW) and, I have to say, none the worse for that . Densely packed with memories, thoughts and questions for me. And a tribute too the amount of work which goes into your pieces.
Many thanks Soren.

LOL! Even gods don\'t stand a chance! A sweet subtle reference to Odysseus\' gods... as if they were as doomed as his men lured by the sirens!

Earth quakes are scary… but you make it sound like a natural calm process. Great poem

Doggerel Dave said:

I think you\'ve got that, Soren - an earthquake must be must be one of the most discombobulating of experiences - might even be the origin of that slightly overblown word......

What I\'m not
L. B. Mek said:

I really like distilled realism
delivered with a spoonful of brevity
refreshing to read nuanced veracity
that hasn\'t been muddied..
reads like a drop of freshwater
clear, emotions
perceived/contemplated
through that microscope of Time..
A great shorty dear Poet
(so many relationships begin
with assumptions
of how the other person can
in time, become
the person we\'re actually looking for
when, its more likely
in waiting/manipulating
for that person to change
we\'re adding a toxic element
to both our lives and forsaking
what chance the relationship
ever had to succeed...)

When reading your brilliant words
I couldn\'t help but be reminded
of Walt Whitman\'s poignant words:
\'I depart as air, I shake my white locks at the runaway sun,
I effuse my flesh in eddies, and drift it in lacy jags.

I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love,
If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles.\'
(from Song of myself, 52
https://poets.org/poem/song-myself-52
)
Just amazing
how favourably, your poetry
compares
to the work
of one of the greatest Poet\'s
dear Poet
just a privilege to read, thank you!

To remind me of my DNA spread everywhere is salutary, Soren - I AM part of the universe. A piece which provoked thought in me.....

Bella so glad you enjoyed it. It was more fun to write about years later than it was to go through at the time. Thanks again so much for the read.

Dear Bella you humble me with your more than gracious comments. My mind wonders onto these things at times and I have to put them to verse. I feel somewhat guilty in that I would like to read more of your poetry that I find so entertaining but I think I have read them all or at least the ones that are listed. If you have others please let me know where to find them they are so rich with life.

This one takes my breath away. Who knew that physics could be poetry. Perhaps if physics were taught this way everyone would love it. You are a true wonder in all that you write, and I love working my way through all of it.

This is a wonderful, engaging story with a punch line that is priceless. I always love a burst out loud at the end. And I love your rhyming patterns, each line flows so beautifully to the next. This is a fav!

There\'s not only the Devil who dances here, Soren - the whole piece dances along with pace and energy out of control, yet contained in disciplined lines Thoroughly enjoyed.
