I really liked your poem. I share your feeling. I felt exactly the same when I lost a friend who was diagnosed with cancel.

Great words. This shows the hubris of only maintaining the home since nothing has yet to hit the doorstep or infiltrate past the white picket fence. Great poem!

Oh! Oh!! Beautiful!

As a physicist by education and an engineer by occupation, I have to say:
Warheads and bombs, measured in megatons, for all I know, can be on their way.
Is it the engineers? Or he who rules and steers - to be blamed for this final dismay?

Good write SB. This made me think of - there\'s the story of Joseph in Egypt, and a butler and a baker in prison who both have dreams. Joseph interprets their dreams, saying both their heads will be \'lifted up\'. For the butler it meant being restored, \'lifted up\' to his original place. The baker thought the outcome of his dream would be good too, but for him it meant his head was \'lifted up\' from off him, and being put to death!

I remember a few years back , going into the Kitchen and seeing a large Black Round shape on the Wall. It seemed to move slightly. Realised it was a mass of Ants. Like something from a Stephen King Novel. Still; Nothing on your scale of things. Horrific. And a good Write too.

An invasion extraordinaire, told in clever automotive metaphor. Here\'s hoping that you had calamine lotion handy, lol.

My friend, this piece walks the line between realism and nightmare so deftlyโ€ฆthe ants as both swarm and symbol, the intrusion as both memory and omen. It haunts long after reading. As for the real encounter...ouch and wow...they came! Well done, my friend!! ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

The way youโ€™ve described this cancerous eating at the human soul is evocative. Very poignant and masterfully written as usual ๐Ÿค

Soren, the hollow log becomes a living metaphor for us all...what time, pain, and pretense erode beneath the skin. Itโ€™s elegiac, unsettling, and true. Very well done and, of course, a fave. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

It\'s good to know we\'re all going back to dust.
Makes you want to get out there and conquer the world.
Maybe get breakfast first.
