Deceptively childish and nostalgic this poem fits each of us in our daily fantasies and dreams. We have not come far in our journey from childhood to old age only the weapons and images have changed. There is a theme in this poem that dives deep to the core of man where we all remain children changing only our outward armor. Inside we are still those boys and girls chasing dragons and winning the princesses hand for imagination never dies and we all want to live happily ever after. A definite fave my friend

Major fave! This is stunning, arqios…the fractures, the moths, the seam tearing open. It reads like memory and myth folding into each other, impossible to pin down yet impossible to forget. You’ve built something vast here. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Arqios, I love this…doomscroll undone, tulip-bombs planted, a sandwich eclipsing the market. Playful and defiant, it makes light itself a protest. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A majestic poem worthy of display in any text of poetry. This poem does not speak or shout but rumbles in its whispers haunting the imagination with metaphoric shadows. Like a fish below deep waters where only movement can be detected in darkness it swims growing in the imagination. An unseen rustle in the dark that raises hair and gooseflesh. It is the unknown shadows of this poem that make that rumble in haunted whispers. A truly great work Cryptic

This one brought to mind a scrapbook of newspaper clippings flipped through quickly with only random headings appearing in rapid succession some missed and all meanings in a jumble in the head. What stands out is the last primary needs of the moment always take precedence and we put the worlds worries and others woes aside in that scrapbook of headlines page now turned and forgotten. Nicely done Cryptic

This poem is breathtaking! The imagery and rhythm make the music almost tangible you can feel the raw intensity and reverence. I love how it balances the visceral power of the sound with the warmth of friendship. Truly a master piece.

Thunderstruck, tongue stuck words caught in the throat, such beautiful lines this message entwines with words wrote. Poetic word choice in this piece cut to the marrow of meaning and the reader feels the scrape of the knife edge drawn along bone surface. A powerful blend of the cold technology of the present and the warm visceral flesh and blood, fountain of poetic emotion that bleeds on the page but dissolves into pixels on glass. Honored to see my name where a thousand others more worthy would serve as well for this masterful work. Thank you so much for sharing

‘Somewhere, a wind rehearses its entrance,
curling through the rafters of the sky,
its breath warm with the scent of rain not yet born.’
Love this stanza. Fascinating poem.

I\'ve always loved libraries, particularly those of my youth, when books were found on index cards instead of by pounding computer keys. Your beautifully written poem takes me back to that quiet, magical place. Thank you for the reminiscence.
