Insignificant
NafisaSB said:
even if alone, man alone has the capacity to make an impact, and a small significant change by his existence...no one is insignificant, not even the smallest being - each has its own niche and part to play in the universe - so stand up and be counted - you may feel you are small in the grand scheme of things - yes we are small - but we do have a purpose which we were born to fulfill

Throwing stones, where to hide so many hands? Inner judgment is the best judgment, the one we must face. Thank you so much for sharing. A great reflection and splendid writing. Best regards, Cor.

A reluctance to take responsibility, and then to accept accountability seems to be pervasive these days, especially in the upper eschalons of our society, dare I say government. At what point did we lose our moral compass. Great and thought provoking write!

You wrote a poem with long, sharp fangs, Soren. My kind of poem! Each line flips the blame with precision…like watching denial unravel in real time. “Blame the hammer striking the thumb”—yeah. You don’t miss. Beautifully done. 🌹👏

What a fierce cascade of inversion,“Why Me?” reads like a howl against moral misdirection and the failure to confront true culpability.

Well written, I firmly believe that we are all guilty of this; it is an intrinsic aspect of human behavior. We all engage in this behavior. I do not think that any single individual can be ruled out. Your poem \"Why Me!\" addresses the theme of misplaced blame and the human tendency to assign responsibility for our own suffering or failures to external forces rather than recognizing our own roles in these situations. It critiques the irrationality of blaming inanimate objects or the vulnerable for the consequences of our actions. The poet explores the idea of accountability and the absurdity of blaming others or inanimate objects for our own choices and outcomes. The imagery evokes violence, hardship, and the struggle for understanding in the face of suffering.

Looking for that escape goat to ease your own conscience, some find it easier to just blaming without looking for the real fault, often themselves, enjoyed the read

Hello Soren,
I see you were busy in the kitchen with this one. Wonderful culinary analogies to enlighten and nourish one\'s understanding of the art(s) of poetry and to do so with a sprinkle of humour. More informative than any lecture - experience and love of the subject rings through. Excellent.
Fond regards,
Tony.

This poem hits like a blow to the jaw; visceral, darkly comic, and unapologetically graphic.
It swings from the brutality of a rusty nail to the absurdity of DIY dental surgery,
all while weaving in biblical allusion and a fierce sense of agency.
