Do you believe?
Bella Shepard said:

Excellent questions! I have come to feel, at my late age, that belief is a very powerful word. Be it for good or bad, it has a rigidity to it that sometimes disturbs me. So I now prefer to use the word \"think\", because every day is a learning experience. Love that you have posed this quandary, that I may now think up on it. Great write my friend.

Apologies I have a very literal mind (always doing this here). Your title... only after I popped back briefly to see if you had any bites and explanation as above.....neat write.

I Love the wonderful rhyming pattern and cadence of the poem as I read aloud, it packs quite the punch. A great write!

Love and hate
Bella Shepard said:

Too often our foolishness supersedes our humanity, something we\'ve yet to dwell upon. Maybe somewhere in that distant future? You\'ve given something to truly reflect upon.

Love and hate
arqios said:

Hateful creatures the lot of them... Is that why all the extraterrestrials aim to purge this planet of humanity!?

Life\'s meaning

2-door Mercury from 1970? In my case I shall be feed for grass. And yes, the \"circle of life goes unbroken.\"

Tightrope (between heaven and hell)

When there is not even anymore losses to minimise escaping with the skin still on our backs seems the sensible thing to do. Thanks for sharing.

Succinct, and oh so true! Well said my friend.

Have we forgotten?
Doggerel Dave said:

I must endorse this - I\'ve argued the relevance of history on these pages for a while. Kudos to you for the provision of concrete cues the open minded could follow...

Have we forgotten?
arqios said:

Could the chain and recurrence be that there is a forgetfulness that needs reminding? Nuts and bolt to the proverb about history \'repeating\' itself? And that this isn\'t an isolated case where darkness and injustice is insidious and persistent. Help us to remember.... more. Thanks for sharing.

Lament
Bella Shepard said:

I\'ve often thought the phrase \"the cost of living\"is a misnomer. It\'s more \"the cost of surviving\"\' in a commercial, political, impersonal world. Quite accurate my friend.

Words to dust
Bella Shepard said:

For me this is a sublime metaphor, the mining and crafting of words into poetry. Who knows when that refuse may become gold. Such a fine write dear poet.

Scars
LittleTalks said:

traumas of love- those are the most vicious scars of all. The last line is a winner. well done

Scars
Bella Shepard said:

Deep reflection and honesty here. Somehow we manage to find the counterbalance to those scars that life seems inflicts upon us, we have to keep moving forward. Well penned!

I am all things
Bella Shepard said:

For me you have described so beautifully in this poem the very essence of our existence. The last two lines especially resonate deeply. This is certainly a favorite

As a child I would wonder how much of us remain after all that exfoliation, cell replacements, haircuts, nail trimming, and the like.... thoroughly enjoyed this poem! Thanks Soren.
