This resonates with me as someone who is quite adept at making the wrong choices in life, even though some of them i thought were the right choices. Enjoyed the read and the message it gives.

Hey Soren! I do like the power of choice and its impact on our lives. Just as in a book, each page represents a different experience, emotion, or decision. By carefully choosing which pages to read—or in this metaphor, which actions to take and which paths to follow—we have the ability to shape our journey and influence the overall narrative of our lives. Something that I have historically not been very goo at. Pick wisely! Wisely pick. Pick. Wisely. (note to self, N.B.)

Good words soren, and so true, there is so much dishonour and lying in the world today.

My dearest sorrenbarret, one could take this so many ways so kudos for that,

Unblemished hide torn away, naked shame on display
Honos dies Maat cries
A feather to weigh, a Judas to betray

Pride justice and honor, I just keep going back to politics health and war, Victims, are we the ones who don\'t vote for the lunatics and those truly innocent souls who are right in the middle of it, a superb and very beautifully crafted piece of poetry. 🌹

Wow! A profound poem, my friend. I love the complex, multi-layered nature of this and how it uses surreal imagery and dark symbolism to explore its themes, as I read it, of loss, memory, and the lingering ghost of those who died. Your note was very helpful in keeping me from pulling out the old dictionary. I knew what a flesh monger was, but I confess, I\'ve never encountered a tosher before! I suppose I would have known standing downwind! 🤣 For me (again, not sure if I am on the mark or not), the tosher represents a friend or a person who was on the margins in one way or another. I am not sure if I am anywhere remotely close on this, but it is what came across to me when I read it! Well done, Soren! ❤️🙏

Wake of a muse

When the muse is with you, how great that can feel. Mine is lazy and I have far more scribbles half started than I’ve ever posted. This reminds me how I can start with a couple of good lines only for them to descend into cast offs. Nothing cast off here sorenbarrett. Some great imagery.
