I remember killing ants for \"fun\" as a kid. And smashing their nests up in woodlands.
When I grew up, I remember someone telling me about the \"rush\" of doing evil.
Great write, Soren.

I liked this one. I’m still thinking about it. When should we have known better !?
Rhetorical Q. You’re off the hook so now I’m thinking if I had a nickel for each grasshopper I let fir in a jar.

Now a memory, but a permanent part of you. Had a budgie in a cage as a kid..... Short but to the point. Thanks Soren.

A very sad and thought-provoking poem. With the literal interpretation aside, this poem makes for a fine metaphor on how we can end up treating human beings as well. A well-written, simple...yet profound...poem that works on multiple levels. 🌹👏

It reminds me of men were born in chains. Like nature is to man, and man is to himself. The ending is a classic like some of your works should be.

Now that’s so sad. As a child I’da thought otherwise. Had a green thumb though, for the longest time. Birthed the sow at the farm. But couldn’t keep an aviary alive.

Amen, all is good. The part about needing experience to get a job really rung true to me. That and being turned away because \"I made too much money\". \"Reparations to who never suffered loss\" these days really rankles.

I\'ll pay that very last line for sure Soren, given my take on it. Injustice in the world which goes way beyond the law.

The world is on effed up place, no? Everything seems backwards to how it SHOULD be. I remember being enraged as a kid about the beer thing. Let’s not add old enough to drive a car, but not rent. Yet you can still go to jail for life! I am still angered by it, as I hate double standards. Regardless, what can one do when most blindly accept and then keep the status quo. Wonderful write my friend. Powerfully written! 🌹👏🖤❤️🖤

Sadly this is the world we live in. Completely bonkers isn’t it? Very powerful piece Soren. Highlights the madness of it all. A great piece of writing.

Story of my existence! For years I’ve up and yelled at the illogical logic of it all…. And now that I’m mostly settled in realise that I was the one that played along…. Idiosyncratic idiocy… 🤪
