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.

A verse there in 6.7.5. format I recognise!
I don\'t say \'metres\' now, as that\'s something technical, to do with stress on certain syllables.
I only end up stressed about them syllables if I try to \'metre\'!

You must have been enjoying yourself then, as it\'s said \'Time goes quickly when you\'re enjoying yourself\'. Fido don\'t let me have too much enjoyment, in case I swoon!
I really must \'get out more\'. lol.
