\"Grandeur broken by the force of gravity\" : It has been said \"Five feet of earth make all men equal.\" Underground, the creepy crawlies not not distinguish or recognise the humblest or the mightiest. It\'s the same dinner...
Gravity vanquishes all. Even low flying objects or spacecraft in orbit. They all come crashing down. It is so with all living beings, including human. It has been said \"The highest tree has the biggest fall.\"

On the evidence presented here, I think your heart\'s in the right place, Soren. Probably a matter of why, when and how.

Soren, this carries a sharp honesty about the cost of putting real life onto the page. The line about poets spilling their blood on living parchment rolls is the image that stayed with me. It captures how personal writing can feel…like pieces of a life laid openly on the page. Reading this made me think about how exposing real emotion in writing always carries risk. When someone shares something honest, it’s never just words…it’s part of themselves. Your poem captures that tension between vulnerability and judgment really well. Thought-provoking piece, my friend and a fave. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Friendship said:
A powerful statement. Your poem explores the duality of criticism and its impact on the human experience. It juxtaposes the pain and suffering that come from judgment and scrutiny with the fleeting joys and emotions that accompany love and creativity. The emphasis is on the destructive nature of criticism and the vulnerability of those who create art. On the other hand, the poem serves as a cathartic reflection on the nature of criticism, urging readers to consider the impact of their words on others. It advocates for empathy and understanding in the face of vulnerability.

Criticism is complicated. I mean an educated critique is one thing but just giving a personal opinion is a waste especially if it is negative. A touch of anger and despair in this powerful work.

Good write SB. There\'s a bit in older Bible versions in the Old Testament of \'Destroying enemies; even every one that pisseth against a wall\' - i.e. males! It sounds a gross way of putting it, but probably derogatory, as in, e.g. \'the whole lot of you enemies will be destroyed; you\'ve had your final chance\'.

The poem of your sense of life written in similes and imagery. However, for the sake of the reader\'s understanding, I think it is necessary to expand the topic of the poem a little more. If rhymed, the poem will come to life.

I so needed to read this today!
It is the taste of a fond memory that is sweeter than any dream
I\'ve been home on a flying visit to say goodbye to my darling dad. My absence will be noted for a while my dear sorrenbarret 🌹 such a lovely poem, throughout it all gorgeous memories are what makes the spirits live on.

My friend, reading this stirred that strange feeling when memory turns sweet and dangerous at the same time… the way recollection can nourish something darker beneath the surface. Your imagery captures that tension beautifully. It feels both reflective and quietly unsettling. Well done, Soren!🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The poem creates a visceral tension between the texture of \"murky mud\" and the \"glowing sheen\" of the truth, suggesting that while time corrodes our reality, the warmth of a \"phantom fire\" offers a deceptive temperature of comfort. This sets the stage for a sharp duality: while a \"seed\" represents a natural, life-giving potential, the \"delicious\" sensory temptation transforms that growth into avarice, turning a fond recollection into a \"forbidden\" and corrosive greed.🕊️🙏🏻

Thank you SB. I read a bit that Adam and Eve chose the forbidden fruit, with seed in it, of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, rather than choosing God, and choosing not to obey Him. They did the one thing they were told not to do.
But they didn\'t eat the seeds surely. Not if it was an apple tree. Don\'t apple seeds contain cyanide?
I won\'t go as far as giving KP apple pie with the seeds included! heehee.
