Aging is not for the faint of heart, and yet even the faint of heart can’t avoid aging. A conundrum! Wonderfully painted, Soren! 👏🌹

A powerfully evocative image. Reminded me of Nana in her last days, I refused to directly look at her so as not to mar the memory I chose to keep of her. So I approached her as always but relied on my peripheral vision, she was mostly blind by then, cataract cloud in one eye and a failed corneal transplant in the other. Strange how this particular reading brought me there. It may take me elsewhere on another day.

Children can be cruel simply because they haven’t been taught compassion. Reminds me of animals kept in zoos and canaries in cages. Both touching and sad Soren.

Wow! Jam packed, vitriolic almost, seeping with cynicism. Powerfully expressed, evocative and provocative. So much to unpack in such a tiny package 📦

I remember killing ants for \"fun\" as a kid. And smashing their nests up in woodlands.
When I grew up, I remember someone telling me about the \"rush\" of doing evil.
Great write, Soren.

A very sad and thought-provoking poem. With the literal interpretation aside, this poem makes for a fine metaphor on how we can end up treating human beings as well. A well-written, simple...yet profound...poem that works on multiple levels. 🌹👏

It reminds me of men were born in chains. Like nature is to man, and man is to himself. The ending is a classic like some of your works should be.
