You must solve the riddle posed by the dragon at the threshold before entering the temple of dementia .
Without doing so ,you will remain nothing more than a troubadour of the gentle month of may !

Wow some strong views here.I think this poem is absolutely right.True poets are artists tortured by trying to create the perfect poem.Some well even suffer mental illness.Poets are made from a difficult childhood and that suffering needs to be expressed.This poem is raw and honest.Well done compadre

Friendship said:

Your poem explores the complex relationship between humanity and nature, questioning the moral superiority of human values in the face of nature\'s inherent brutality and diversity. You highlight the interconnectedness of all life forms and critique the tendency of humans to view themselves as separate from or above the natural world.

Soren, this is a philosophical mirror held up to humanity. The minnow, the ants, the wolf and deer…each image builds the case steadily. By the time we reach “Nature will always be, a far greater force than humanity” it feels less like a claim and more like a reminder. Thought-provoking and bold, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Sometimes we look at nature and think how cruel it is.
But nature knows the land can\'t sustain thousands of animals, so it creates a balance.
Man does something similar, he drops bombs on countries to cull the masses. (Maybe a bit contrite.)
Humans are living longer, space is running out. Nature it seems is fighting back.

Wow this is amazing. There is so much to think about.The fatc that a person can be feel so insignificant compared to Nature. Like a small fish in a huge sea. Nature is a far greater force but that\'s complex. Without Nature there is no human nature. Whether we can compare the force of Nature I don\'t know.Certain;ly made me think.I willl say I detected a note of sadness in the horrors of nature.

Good write SB. I suppose animals in the wild only kill because they have to, unlike humans. Some areas of Nature are free, at peace, though maybe unprotected, but secure and safe. Then along comes man (mankind) and messes it up often. Doh!

Forever seems to sometimes mean never. I could feel the pain in this Soren. Candles can burn for a long time but eventually there’s nothing left to light, I hope you can find peace with this whether it’s just metaphorical or true.

Soren, this carries a gentle melancholy that lingers. The fogged windows, the fading candle, and the final image of shadows seeping through eyelids all weave together naturally. It feels like looking back without trying to rewrite what was. Thoughtful and moving, my dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

This is a bit of a heart tugger, alot of sadness in those reflective words, I felt it was written with a very caring hand and from a heart that still loves and remembers, well penned.

Time makes no difference it seems, and at night when the mind is lucid, it just replays making it worse.
Forever it seems is what makes humans search for meaning.
You can see why people go back searching for lost loves.

A practiced that is still practiced today in some parts literally, for other part\'s of the world man has many way of devouring the week and poor. It is in our DNA to do what we need to in order to survive, but there must be another DNA in us, because the devouring of the week and poor these days, is not done out of need it is done out of greed. All that was needed to finish this write was a bottle of Chianti!!!, enjoyed the read

For me this is a sad break up of a relationship whether that relationship is with a person or Life itself. I enjoy the rhyme but it certainly is a deep reflection.Excellent

I felt this one, Soren, even though I`ve had the good fortune of never losing something/someone I thought would be \"forever.\" Well, the magic of childhood upped and left, however I think that can be found again.

this shows how desperation can lead man to sink to such unimaginable horror, and the means taken to ensure personal survival...sad but true depiction of the truth
