the unwritten mirror
sorenbarrett said:
This one hit home and is one of those that I wished I had written. It speaks to the soul, whatever that is, that sense of consciousness and being. So well worded it contains layers of wisdom in metaphor so well painted personifying thoughts and feelings. Masterfully done my friend and a definite fave

To me this is sitting in front of a Screen or a Piece of paper writing a Poem and Waiting.
A good Write.

There’s a quiet feeling of surrender here, like the speaker is accepting a place already drawn for them. The sketchbook image is damn effective—it makes identity feel both chosen and arranged by someone else.

A reflection indeed where an artist self aware of coice, physical form and state of consciousness. The qualities of any artist much more a poet.

Arqios, this is beautifully spare. There’s a quiet tension in being placed somewhere and then adjusting yourself to fit what has already been arranged. Thoughtful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Wow, Arqios...this is minimal, thoughtful, and quietly haunting. The silence, the spacing, and the sense of absence all work together beautifully. Really lovely piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Indeed my friend what is not said is often more important that what is said. It is in the pauses that the true story is told. Nicely done Cryptic

I really enjoyed this write. It\'s the same with music and songs really...I like to hear the deliberate empty bars without any lyrics, the space between spaces if you wish.
An enjoyable read.

Wow, Arqios...this is quietly devastating. The years move forward, the surroundings modernize, but the dream keeps getting deferred. That simplicity makes the whole thing hit even harder. Powerful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Times change, technology moves on and although the style of the car is different it still carries us to our destination. Nicely written Cryptic

Rik, my friend, this is hilarious and ridiculously clever. You’ve taken the existential crisis and dropped it into the most mundane possible setting…and somehow the absurdity makes the philosophy hit even harder. Loved this. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It\'s Porridge for me every time.
And as for Sorenbarret: It\'s all round his House for Tea. 🧂🍽️🥄

What a fun read my friend the allegories were well done and the rhyme added a sugar coating. I used to eat breakfast cereal but no longer now I feen upon only eggs, natural fresh bread, real butter, honey, jams and fruit with bacon and ham as well as fresh squeezed juice.

Arqios, this really got me thinking. There’s something almost merciful in not knowing what waits ahead…certainty might be far heavier to carry than uncertainty ever was. Powerful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

When Banquo and Macbeth ask the Witches about the Future. Personally I\'d ask them for the lottery Numbers.
A good Write on the unknown.
