There is so much Information that a lot of People ignore or are ignorant of it\'s Existence.
And if discovered would enlighten their Minds.
Enrich their lives. That\'s how I see it.

So many things this could mean but to me it is those unheard messages because their heat is concealed encased in a coating or too gray for one to see it for what it is. All just waiting for someone to see the message where no one else looks. A great short my friend

The shift from pale shoots to “unquiet disrespect” caught me, arqios...the growth becomes beautiful and disruptive at once. Wonderful write, my friend.🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It is those germinating seeds that sprout, not every seed fertile, not every sprout surviving, not every stalk bearing fruit but those that do how sweet the fruit. Nicely written my friend.

My froend, I love the movement from cold and confusion toward clear sight…the thaw arrives with its eyes open and refuses to apologize for the fire. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

There’s a powerful sense of awakening here, where what looked like dormancy or damage is revealed as something gathering strength beneath the surface, until the old structures finally crack and let the fire through. “not a blinded animal in the dark, / but with eyes wide open to the flame” is the keeper for me, because it transforms the poem’s emergence from something merely instinctive into a conscious reckoning, a self that no longer fears the fire because it has finally learned to see.

Green goes underground in the winter grass and leaves frost burned seeds dropped. The cortex is solid stone of ice. It is this cold that ignites many life forms. There is something magical about the wording of this piece that I can not put my finger on but it gets a fave

There\'s something particularly painful about wanting to reconnect but not knowing whether that possibility still exists, Rik. Life has a way of leaving us with questions that nobody else can answer. Sending you warmth, my friend. 🖤🕯️🍂🙏

This seems to me a tense moment where everything gos into slow motion, the tension slows the clock. Or maybe it is a memory of a tense time in the past or a metaphor of knocking on the door of someone\'s heart that one wished would open but may be shut or nobody home and the fear that no one will answer. Then again given the season a memory of trick or treating. Any way you look at it, it holds tension. Well done my friend
