Thanks dear friend. You are right whether misery or abject joy the extreems seem to bring out artisry, be it poetry or painting or music.

we shed our deities
to grasp Prometheus\' spark
of enlightenment
and awaken from Plato\'s cave
of benightment
only to then produce warheads
and set fire, to all...
\'No change, no pause, no hope! Yet I endure.
I ask the Earth, have not the mountains felt?
I ask yon Heaven, the all-beholding Sun,
Has it not seen? The Sea, in storm or calm,
Heaven\'s ever-changing Shadow, spread below,
Have its deaf waves not heard my agony?
Ah me! alas, pain, pain ever, for ever!\'
from Shelley\'s: \'Prometheus Unbound\'
(

)
yet, whilst we have breath
we endure, my wise friend
and word like yours, pave
our survival\'s path:
\'Like moths, we follow any light, no matter the cost\'
\'It seems that our soul is a bleeder
No way to stop hemorrhaging, a need for approval from above\'
\'On tempestuous seas we sail
*Pseudo lighthouses insuring we are lost*

\'Daily, they would turn off the sun
due to lack of payment\'
what a wording of bleak hopelessness
just so despairingly vivid
and poignantly acute
why does our misery, help
elevate our artistry
what a curse of creativity...
simply Brilliant, my wise friend
thank you!

Amen brother! We seem to have a penchant for extremes, but then they always yell the loudest. If we do find respite at times in moderation and common sense, it is short lived. Great write my friend!

Amen!
humanity\'s zeal for self-destruction
is
incomprehensibly, inapprehensible
“Insanity
is doing the same thing
over and over
and expecting, different results.”
Einstein said it best, we all be crazy!

love the \'T\' rhyme scheme
anchors that Tearing of comfort
that forcibly
flustered, unseTTled state
you depict, so vividly
and I think your formatting worked really well
that gap/space, element
adds to a stepping feel, lines
descending
to those anchoring realisation\'s..
a wonderful showcasing
of your technical prowess, dear Poet

so intriguing, wondrousness of nature
yet, we think we know best
project this n that, assume everything
is as a consequence of our
actions
when nature, curated us to be
exactly, what we are..
light n darkness
hot n cold
mountains n sea
jelly fish fragility n survivability
life n death
existence\'s, callous duality
beautiful by design
(a great write! my friend)

\'a bee\'s vibrato humming, cicadas in ostinato singing,\'
\' the heavens quaking, cloud bottoms breaking,\'
delightfully worded, a delicious read
words roll-off and twist that tongue
while showering that internal voice
with serenading worded musicality
Brilliant!
(a study of that nourishing Sun\'s
symbolic daily rebirth
Ra, Helios, Apollo or many other
names, its lore endless
no wonder the annals of humanity
do so laud and acclaim
our emblem of Phoenix rebirth
that great, Sun!)

The Night
L. B. Mek said:
Brilliant!
no need for explanations
your poetry, transcends
a need for context\'s clarity:
(\'Light\'s penumbra on blackness lies,\'
\'Gravity seduces heavy eyes,\'
\'As weight of darkness takes control\'
\'Falling into that black hole,\'
\'As the event horizon we traverse
in other dimensions we fall,
where with oracles we converse
From here we may not return at all\'
\'With the softness of the night\'
\'glorious slumber without fright,\'
\'Fear not the darkness and its peace\'
\'Revel in obscurities release\')
I fear, you fail
to realise your own brilliance
my kind friend
I bow to your superior talent!

Just think - I would miss all this, if I don\'t \'get my coat\' and \'get out more\', as the sayings go! Well, I might not need a coat if it\'s warm enough. lol.
