So eloquently written dear friend, in effortless, flowing rhyme from line to line. I love the way you have addressed each beloved poet in terms of such endearment, and humility. Your modesty does you justice, but your talent can\'t help but shine forth. This is truly a fav!

well, science
in its purest form
is (like philosophy)
a, most humble
aspect of our species,
where we readily admit
we know nothing at all
and unchain our innate
inquisitive traits
(well then
if we\'re admitting
we don\'t know, what is
or what works, best
why not make a chain necklace
with a four leaf clover
and offer it to our lover
and then maybe we tattoo
a few rabbit foots
and horse shoes
all over us, you know
just in case, something
work to our favour..)
lol
a deeply meaningful concept
you\'ve introduced for our
contemplation treat, thank you!
oh wise Poet
a fun read as well, cheers 🍻

\'should one resist or go with the flow?
Truth a ghostly, unfathomable game\'
\'A single dimension, the rest an illusion\'
\'intuition evaporated into the turmoil of one\'s mind\'
(this searching poem, attesting
to that innate, fallible dichotomy
in selfhood\'s, mirages
we, who curate what to identify
as truth
believing our eyes, asserting dominance
on existence
while witnessing a millennium old spec of light
as the stars we\'re afforded in life)
Brilliant!

\'I love the beauty in this world

all the people that are kind

(who needs coffee or a red bull
when your words, gift us
wings,
recycling the ugly in our lives
to curate words of beauty
what an inspirational endeavour)

I am not that superstitious soren. My daughter was born 13th January, one of the houses that Joyce and I lived in was Number 13. Fine words though as there are many that are superstitious.

Now a black cat crossing me path was not lucky for me - I tripped over it and fell down a hole! Doh! (I made that up).
We have a black cat, and a tabby cat as pets.
It seems it differs in different countries - in some places it\'s unlucky.
Not that I believe in \'luck\' in rambling on here!

Good write SB.
Is that the same thing as those strips, where one twists it, then cuts it in half down the centre, and tapes it together to become twice as long but half the breadth? If you follow my ramblings. lol.
Yes, I studied a little of old Mobius.

rich with vivid and unique imagery
a great write! dear Poet
\'unseasoned loneliness tastes bland
salted with a handful of dirt
the sun smelled cold
In the blackness of its light

The Scarecrow
Bella Shepard said:
I read this poem aloud several times, and each time I did, I felt that I found a clue to the nature of the scarecrow\'s suffering, in the illusion of life. My interpretation may be off, but I loved the mental exercise. Thank you dear friend, you always keep me thinking.

Atrocious atrocities always arrive abominably. It’s there though, that whole ignorance is bliss thing never lasted long enough for me,
Like Sly said, if you dance to the music you’re gonna have to pay to the piper.

Fear\'s enslavement
L. B. Mek said:
fear is misunderstood
it isn\'t a weakness or a hurdle
it\'s a state of mind, designed
by our evolutionary prerequisite\'s
to help us survive, if we but learn
to utilise it, instead
of wagging a war against it..
(but what do i know)
Bella was right \'Powerful\', indeed
thank you! dear Poet

Character
L. B. Mek said:
indeed, we curate our character
from the sensations we experience
sculpting ourselves with each
deed or spoken word and aspiring
to become, that which we
desire to be recognised for, by those
in our lives, we care about
(a great write! wise Poet
words to contemplate, not just read and forget)

Deicide
L. B. Mek said:
Spinoza would so agree, my wise friend!
if you\'re going to afford your chosen deity
all the praise and blame, then surely
it behoves you to witness, that deity\'s
presence, in all that you see and feel...
(when the sky is choking
from all the fumes we send up
it rains it back down on us
but those humble trees, getting
chopped every second
and forced to inhale humanity\'s
toxic legacy, merely - steadfastly
afford us a constant supply
of the oxygen, we need to exist..)
such a great write! thank you

From the heart
L. B. Mek said:
beyond our ink\'s projected personas
let us, reveal boldly
scribble defiantly, to insure
imbued in all that we seek to share
with the world, is a lasting legacy
curated by our writing\'s, innate sincerity
and thereby
letting our poems become a part
of our integrity and worth...
(a write i really relate to dear Poet
as, in aspiring to reach our artistic heights
we sometimes forget, that
our words need to be a reflection
of ourselves, not just a description
of all that surrounds, us
thank you! such a meaningful write)
I read and try to heed
