The never ending vices and crimes of man whilst sowing the seeds of wrath in filth for the next generation, as with all previous generations. A good and true kick in the stomach poem, to the point with deft pronouncements of raw honesty. Excellent.
All the best,
Tony.

What goes around comes around, and we all pay for out transgressions eventually. The world is full of enough blame to go around.
Loved the rhyming. Always ending with a rose is good idea. S3 L4 is a warning to us all. - Phil A.

Soren…this one reads like a haunted descent—layered with ache, hunger, and glimpses of fractured light. 😔 The images cut sharp, but it’s the rhythm beneath it all that kept me swaying with each stanza. That final rose? Rootless, spined, and enshrined—it lingers. Well crafted, my friend. 🌹👏 A fave!

This stream of consciousness flows brilliantly from beginning to end, as carries us along upon each ripple of reflection. Loved it!

Each line of this poem makes you think in a totally different way..
A totally different feeling, a different aspect of life.
Has to be the most thought provoking write I have ever seen..
Stunning pice

Soren…this one hits with that heavy, grim rhythm—like boots trudging through the mud of it all. But the last line...that cracked it wide open for me. Rain into tilth—you always know where to plant the hope, even if it comes caked in ash. A well written poem, my friend. 🌹👏

It\'s like reading the social history of an agrarian life, the darker side, that is. A personal experience and perhaps recalling the words of the father/grandfather\'s generation; history and the present melding together reliving the pains, regrets, loss and sorrows of a life lived and one\'s desire to have, who ever will listen to, accept this. I always enjoy your poems, very much so but this one is outstanding. Very well done, Soren, accolades galore.
All the very best to you,
Tony.

Your words paint a haunting cycle of suffering and resilience—powerful and raw. A stark reminder of life\'s relentless storms and the slow growth that follows.

Your poem walks bravely into the murky territory between tenderness and transgression, exposing how easily care can curdle into control. With spare, potent language and metaphor, you explore how boundary lines blur; how jokes, touches, and love itself can become coercive if misused. The final image, releasing the dove, becomes both a plea and a principle: real love liberates. Rather than offering easy answers, your poem compels us to stay vigilant, asking not just what we do, but why, and at what point we forget to notice the difference.

The pushing and shoving and the going a bit to far, human nature and this is truly powerful. I see a lot of wisdom and philosophy of when to know when to let something go! Wonderful write as always

Deeply thoughtful, original and well written. Makes my mind race trying to form opinions on it all, and I like that. The last line about releasing the dove resonates too, because I\'ve known of controlling people and relationships and the best advice is to not ever try to control. Yet many do.

Soren…this one lands with weight. 😔 The questions here aren’t rhetorical—they ache for reckoning. Your final line is gentle, but piercing. You found quite the tender edge between truth and restraint. Quietly powerful and a fave, my friend. 🌹👏

Soren, my friend…you are either divinely protected or running on borrowed time! 🤣 But seriously, this is sharp—wry, self-aware, and oddly tender beneath it all. That last line? A perfect sting. And somewhere in here, I swear, a fable is trying to take root. Love it! A fave for sure! 🌹👏
