Bath in a cloud
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Soren, you got me with this one. The imagery is rich, fluid, and immersive...it feels like stepping into a dream where water, steam, and self-discovery all occupy the same space. There is something wonderfully hypnotic about it. Great job on this, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The most painful point of the poem’s dystopian vision is the voluntary submission to bondage and the normalization of suffering.

When the wool from the nations that keeps us warm is sold at Walmart ,what can we do ? Shout our outrage while running naked across the lunar rooftops ?

This has so much to consider.We sell ourselves to bondage.Life certainly feels that way at times. Retreating like sheep when the wolves are at the door.An amazing piece here compadre

Never been in a Turkish Bath. Probably never been in a Bath for that matter. But reading Playboy years back was quite Hot.

Thomas W Case said:

There’s a vivid, almost tactile intensity in this—like weather becoming a body, and the body becoming weather in return.

And what lands most is that movement from obscurity into clarity… as if the fog isn’t just hiding things, but gently preparing them to be seen.

Tried the Turkish bath once, where after sweating the impurities out, one was then advised to jump into a freezing pool.
Don\'t know what one was the worst.
Naked people are not nice to watch, beats me why they have nudists beaches.

Look closer
Durdica Porobija said:

This poem, based on chiasmus and antitheses, is very playful. And it certainly shows that distances are significantly closer than we think. Sort of.

This song, based on chiasm and antithesis, is very playful. Moreover, it shows that absolute opposites are closer than we think, that one arises from the other. Something like that.

Oh I love this line: With gluttony my eyes devour the beauty of each blooming flower. I think we are all drawn to the ephemeral beauty of flowers.

I always noticed that all the Baddies in old films had a Beard - usually a Goate. While the Hero was clean shaven. The Sheriff of Nottingham and Robin Hood . Ming the Merciless and Flash Gordon. A good Write as always.

Hi Sorenbarret, I can\'t think of many poems I\'ve read about beards. This is by far the best. It\'s an awesome stand alone poem on it\'s own. Bravo 👏 👏

Soren, this made me smile. There is a playful curiosity running through the entire poem...part teasing inquiry, part philosophical reflection, and part affectionate roast of the humble beard. Wonderful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

It’s like a white picket fence that frames (again that word) and detracts as well as girds; to my mind & practice 🙏🏻🕊️

Beards are tricky.Frued said it was a cover up but covering up what.This poem has more suggestions than Frued ever did, Some people are too lazy to shave.Well constructed poem.Enjoyable read
