There are those who might say its a man thing .. It\'s not, is it .. it takes all sorts .. My guess is, that heaven is full of em and in all shapes and sizes .. Tho\' maybe simple in composition, what we have here, is something much more profound and highly complex touching on the higher corporeal components that which sets man apart .. This is really about compassion and empathy isn\'t it .. or am I barking up the wrong tree ..

A profoundly moving, soul-stirring poem. Your poem beautifully weaves together compassion, responsibility, and the interconnectedness of all beings, human and animal, inspiring a deeper reflection on our shared humanity. It raises vital ethical questions about how society treats the vulnerable, particularly those who are unwanted or marginalized, such as pregnant dogs and strays, urging us to reconsider our values. The poet thoughtfully invites a contemplation on the nature of humanity and empathy, questioning why we often draw a line between humans and animals in matters of dignity and the afterlife, encouraging a more inclusive and compassionate worldview.

Hello, Soren,
Man\'s best friend when all is well. To do what a dog would do, that is the question. I say, homeless or not, care for her and hope for the best, that said, it is a conundrum. Well put, said and questioned in your usual compassionate style.
All the best,
Tony.

This is a beautiful reminder of humanity which should be no different between humans and animals, takes a lot for some to find empathy and compassion. sorrenbarret I\'m off to limbo in any case somewhere in the middle, maybe I will be able to see Heaven and Hell? How much fun that would be. 🌹

Wow. I was going to highlight the third and fourth verses but that shadows too much of the rest of this fine piece. Heartfelt, almost grieving. \"water to wine and wine to frothing milk\" fresh and clever. Again, wow!

Your poem is vast, like a portrait of an entire era.
It leads us through the dawn of time, along dusty roads and fields violated by civilization —
and brings us to an abandoned church,
where the human essence stands bare.
It is not the reader who enters the poem —
the poem enters the reader and leaves its mark.
Powerful and unforgettable.

Well written. Your poem \"Servitude\" explores themes of oppression, labor, and the relationship between the master and the enslaved. It delves into the history of servitude, highlighting the exploitation of both land and people. The imagery used suggests a contrast between the beauty of nature and the harsh realities of human abuse, symbolizing the loss of innocence and the violence inflicted by colonialism and slavery. The poem culminates in the realization that both master and slave are ultimately connected through their shared humanity and suffering.
The poet aims to shed light on the injustices of servitude, to provoke thought on the connections between oppressor and oppressed, and to encourage reflection on humanity\'s shared suffering and the impact of history on present realities.

My dear sorrenbarret, I think you have just shared a lifetime of talent in one piece of outstanding poetry, I am not only in awe, but overwhelmed by the pure extraordinary imagery, your title gives a lot in this poem, powerful and brilliant, for me it\'s almost the finest battle between all that is pure and beautiful and all that is evil. That\'s just my take on this. Superb piece my friend wonderful ending too. This poem needs the fresh air to breathe. 🌹

I\'ve read and re_read this several times soren
It is fascinating
All from a seed fighting the odds to survive
Becomes a magnificent oak
That becomes a home for the feller to start a family
Then I think his coffin is made from it
And new seeds begin.. weed/tree line
Could be completely wrong here
Hence my late comment
Just get a vibe about how everything is connected
I\'m rambling a bit so will leave it there
Either way it is a great poem with plenty to think about

This poem is rich with layered metaphor; time as both tormentor and muse, language as bloodletting and balm. It dances between clarity and obscurity, daring the reader to chase meaning while warning that meaning may be a mirage. I love how it challenges interpretation while rewarding immersion.
