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›

All these words thrown into the season of ghosts that convey the beauty of emptiness ...

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.

The sibilance in this poem has me stressing the โ€œsโ€ of every word Iโ€™m saying now. Itโ€™s lingering ahhh!!! I love it!

My friend, Iโ€™ve felt that tooโ€ฆthat moment when control gives way, and all thatโ€™s left is gravity and grace. You capture it with beautiful precision. Well done, and Happy Halloween, my friend! ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›

This one really captures the stark beauty and danger of climbing, Soren; every line feels like itโ€™s balanced on the edge of a slip. I like how the fall at the end isnโ€™t just physical but existential, like disappearing into nothingness. It reads less like a sport and more like a metaphor for taking risks in life where one wrong move can erase everything. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ™

Soren, this reads like natureโ€™s lullaby...gentle, protective, and full of quiet awe. You remind us that even storms can cradle us in peace. ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ญ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ™

Could be life in a line.
It doesn\'t matter how much you prepare. If the outside force is against you, it\'s against you.
Best laid plans and all that. This is why I delegate.

I like how this flips the usual idea of storms being violent or threatening. Here the rain feels almost maternal, of wrapping, sheltering, singing you to sleep. That last image of fears turning to โ€œdark ashโ€ really lands, like the storm has burned away the dayโ€™s weight and left only quiet. Itโ€™s a gentle reminder that sometimes the wildest weather is also the safest place to rest. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

I love the uneasiness of this rhythm structure, that clearly fits the words that are written. Though, from line five, it reads like a killer rap, of which I very much enjoyed.

I agree with what this poem, and previous readers comments, question. With the purity of a certain faith, do the dead appreciate this?

Bravo, and I hope that all is well!

For those who might follow me here, take note, for herein there lies truest meaning to questions so oft sought .. In truth we both arrive and depart naked and with nothing owned .. sprinkled with a touch of zen .. perhaps .. Neville ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
