Who Would Listen? (Psychosis)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, this hit me…there’s a raw honesty here that doesn’t try to soften itself. It feels lived-in, not performed. That tension between what you’ve seen and how you carry it now really lands. Well done, my friend. Happy Lord\'s Day to you, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A Beautiful Day In The Cold-hearted Matrix
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, this has a real restless energy to it…like you’re taking in a beautiful moment but can’t fully settle into it. That tension carries all the way through. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This poem takes us to the matrix. It is surreal and speaks with animation. Well done.

Egregious Expectations (The Routine)
Doggerel Dave said:
“Always look on the bright side of life” – Being unemployed gives you plenty of time to write poetry and contribute to the vibrant community which exists here……
And before you start to get the shits with me, let me tell you I know all about unemployment in the UK. I was unemployed in the land of my birth for two years (one year, three months’ work and then another year).
So this response is not a piece of poetic bollocks - just a couple of suggestions you may already be aware of and have implemented. If not:
Get out there and change volunteering jobs to agencies you are interested in, Plus: Go study (always – as the world gets more complicated..)
Good luck Shaun.
PS: Part of me did enjoy the freedom, and it was a good apprenticeship for the retirement I now appreciate to the max.

Egregious Expectations (The Routine)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, this hits with a restless honesty…there’s a real frustration running through it that feels unfiltered and direct. It doesn’t try to clean itself up, it just says it. That kind of rawness carries the piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Attack Of The Clones (Part.2)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, that line about “brainwashed goldfish in a spellbound bowl” really sticks. It’s sharp, almost absurd on the surface, but it lands with weight. That image lingers and says more the longer it sits. Nicely done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

This poem carries a new view on the American Dream not wealth and luxury but comfort, peace and essentials. A most interesting commentary

Narc, Narc, Who\'s There?
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, this feels sharp and immediate…there’s a real bite to the way you capture that draining cycle without dressing it up. It lands fast and doesn’t overstay… just hits and leaves the echo. That last line pulls it together clean. Strong piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Ugh! Not GG. And not so-called stand-up comedians either. I\'ve gone to bed by the time they are on TV. Hooray! lol.
Not GG but someone else with two initials - we knows him. lol.

God\'s Conspiracy
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, this piece has a real rebellious energy… cultural reference, anger, suspicion, and questioning all colliding in the same space. It reads like spoken word meant to provoke a reaction rather than soothe the reader. Isn\'t that what poetry is for, after all? Poetry that pushes the room a little is always interesting to encounter, my friend, and you do it well. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Questions we answer by justifications we make, delusions we create. We all ask some of these things and everyone has a different answer that makes sense to us and no one else. Nicely done

The Multifidus

Shaun, this made me smile… only you could turn anatomy into a tidy little rhyme like this. It’s playful and clever, and the way you land on multifidus at the end is a great punchline. Nicely done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Shaun, this comes across with real clarity… that moment where patience runs out and the page finally turns. The frustration feels honest rather than theatrical. Sometimes the healthiest move really is walking away from the cycle. Strong, direct piece, m friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
