how firm is the ground on which you stand?
Rocky Lagou said:

This is full-blown cerebral ecstasy. I am literally captivated by your artistry and the way you\'ve so gracefully conducted your words in this poem. I feel like this piece can be a nod to depression or overall mental health and as a person who suffers with it daily I can tell you that you hit it right on the mark. You said it relates to \"visa issues\" and I can also sense that sort of \"exile\" state that the speaker may be experiencing. Thank you for this, it\'s wonderful.

a river in egypt
L. B. Mek said:

like threatening war, over water
that\'s fed, generations
of your most peaceful, neighbour..
(but, if we don\'t
at such a young age, learn
to look away, at all the ugly
around us
I doubt, half of us
\'the empathetic, half\'
could make it to adulthood;
its just, once
we make it to adulthood
we soon, make-up
a portion of the ugly, we still
so adamantly
refuse to acknowledge, just
so we can survive
a life, we
in actuality, hate
such is that conflicting, duality
in all-things, fallible humanity)
thanks for sharing
such an intriguing write
although i fear, I read your poem
a little - too, personally
forgive me..

This poem possesses such a beautiful, lilting quality. You treat it gently, with lovely rhymes that speak of love lost, sadly unfulfilled. A good write dear poetess.

ghosts
Bella Shepard said:

I can certainly relate to this poem. The ghosts come and go, especially the older we get, and our perspective may shift with time. I love the way you have treated this subject!

so relatable, and wonderfully succinct
thanks for sharing, dear poet
and for inspiring my attempt
at a little poetic reply
(betwixt hope and scope
exists, our insecurity\'s-phobe
finding holes in fate\'s plotlines
convinced
we were born with losing lottery
tickets
and so we curate our horizons
devoid of scope for any, hope...)

L. B. Mek said:

yeah, I can so relate
sometimes, avoidance is our key
to survival\'s
acceptance and the simple fact, that
often
blame comes, fingerless
and lessons, come
without guidance...
(thanks for sharing, dear poet)

A very sincere poem which reflects ego of mankind and the weaknesses. I enjoyed it!
