What a dark and visceral piece, Soren. The devastation reaches far beyond the original violationโฆaffecting trust, recollection, and every hollow attempt at reconciliation afterward. I know that terrain all too well. Outstanding poem, my friend! ๐น๐ค๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ

Betrayal corrupts everything, memory, friendship, perception, etc. Forgiveness in that light becomes a performance that masks rage that never truly dies. Makes one wonder if we have become an angry culture.

This poem feels dark and visceral, weaving betrayal and decay into imagery that refuses to soften its edges. Thereโs a heavy, almost suffocating intensity here, where guilt and deception take root and grow into something inescapable.

Soren, what a thought-provoking piece. I love the progression through myth, art, and poetry, all leading to those rare moments when a person seems to become one with their calling. Itโs concise, yet it leaves the mind wandering long after the last line. Powerful write, my friend. ๐น๐ค๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ

A Soldier turning into God. The ability to choose Life or Death.
The Idea to list People and Occupations to something one step higher was a good one
A fave for sure.

How beautifully you use mythology as a metaphor for those moments when ordinary people transcend themselves, expressing the idea that true greatness comes from fully embodying one\'s purpose, and that achievements reached in this way become unforgettable.
One word about you: your human warmth shines through not only in your poems but also in your comments. That makes you something rare todayโa genuinely caring human being. I noticed this in your response to a poem that lacked imagery; your own comment was rich with imagery, making your criticism both instructive and creative. At times, it seems that you write poems not merely as an outlet for your emotional burdens or inner conflicts, but from a deep sense of responsibility toward others. That, to me, is a rare and admirable quality.

Take the bow while you can, it will only be a brief time in life.
How many times have we said to ourselves. I was there when it happened.

All of us have that box of worthless things, worthless relationships but we still hold on to them.. Sometimes it gives us hurt but sometimes it does love us a little.

This poem feels raw and unflinching, tracing the arc from tenderness and creation into something more strained and disillusioned. The contrast between nurturing imagery and the harder emotional turn at the end gives it a powerful, almost unsettling resonance.

What a devastating poem, Soren. That sharp reversal from complete devotion to cold entitlement hits terribly hard...especially because I have seen families arrive at precisely this kind of estrangement. Brilliantly constructed, my friend! ๐น๐ค๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ

Hi Sorenbarret, this is a very clever piece. It reminds me of a work place slogan (I mean this a compliment really, even though I detest work place slogans. I hope you get what I mean) \"Don\'t let your yesterday ruin today!\"
Excellent writing as always ๐

Soren, what a beautifully woven piece. The garment becomes more than clothingโฆit becomes memory itself, stitched together from joy, loss, and everything in between. Those hidden knots and the lingering itch make the metaphor feel especially human. Excellent write, my friend. ๐น๐ค๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฆโโฌ
