Peter Pan - The Rock said:
Some people help the people. Quoting a brilliant mind...
And my own words... not exactly so, more or less...
Some people rape other people.
Some people act like animals or apes.
Some people control more or less...
To a certain level their inner-desires,
needs and sexuality.
Some people molest and rape, real live breathing children, that you can touch.
Some people do despicable things, dreadful, horrible things to other people.
Not all people are alike.
Not all people are the same.
Some people are inhumane.
Some people it\'s a shame to real people, to even call them people.
Some people deserve to be in real prison, behind bars.
Some people deserve, death penalty and capital punishment.
Many people deserve, true, real...
JUSTICE. Of course... people.

This morning on my walk I heard a Cardinal calling. I stopped several times and waited, trying to locate the source. Then finally, high in a tree top, devoid of leaves,I found my little red feathered friend, and in the distance I heard its the call answered. You have spoken so eloquently \"we may ever need all the help we may never understand\". How simple the bird\'s call, and what might we learn if only we had the sense to listen. Beautiful dear poet!

\'Thou wast not born for death, immortal bird!
No hungry generations tread thee down;
The voice I hear this passing night was heard
In ancient days by emperor and clown:\'
from keats\', \'ode to a nightingale\'

indeed, dear Poet
we do jump-in, swim
no pathing to that we dream
mere instinct as life\'s, guide
and yet, and yet
we do so love, those butterfly
gifted, strokes..
may we find our bubble of truth
to keep us believing
till those survival shores, appear
or that mercy finale
greets us, as reward for fighting
far beyond, strife\'s
mirage bell tolls, in our pebbled
hope fuelled paths
upon callous life\'s, storm waves

Me carpet is stained each Christmas morning with soot. I knows that much. Some fat guy comes down the chimney once a year. Dunno how he fits in. He must chuck the presents down the chimney, causing the soot in me lounge.
Summat like that! lol.

At first sight dismal, but no! I think not. Plundered and pecked to fall and rot, we as the Avatar reminds return in other forms. Our words taken by others, transformed, their source forgotten, they live on, as fire, the inventor long forgotten, except in myth as Prometheus. In nature all things have their purpose.

Loved this short piece. Hope you are not in this state. It\'s metaphor is deep in that the light once shed in life now turns to smoke and black. A finalization but also a mark of our past existence. In raising many would think of the soul as it separates from the body, going up to where many see as heaven. I prefer to see it as a transformation and a lasting memory. Lovely

so true! dear Poet
(generations, tasked to dream
within bit-sized hope
volition, bastardised by capitalist greed
seeking solace in ticks, swipes and clicks
while subjugating our horizons
within a marginalised scope
of ourselves)

wonderful brevity, dear Poet
\'kneading\'
is such a crucial anchor to your poetic voice
a choice wording
great showcasing of your poetic talent
and passionately cultivated skill

It\'s hard dear bard to feel positive about anything these days. Those hollow logs, in their decay, will provide nourishement for new life and hopefully a better way. Such a good write my friend!

your holy book or mine?

(words speak, beyond
what writer\'s imbue
as, to read is to question
for a line can anchor our mind
or make us doubt, our once
untouchable dogmatic zeal;
what truly matters
is that we listen
when we come across those words
fated, to open possibilities
in our journey of life...)
forgive my feeble attempt at a poetic reply, dear Poet
i couldn\'t resist..
thank you for sharing such a memorable read

I was just getting ready to say something really witty and profound, but a nanosecond passed, and the thought was gone, oh well. It is whimsical and sobering at the same time dear poet.
