Management, Drones And Energy Vampires In The Office
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Shaun, this carries real heat. The prison-like office imagery grounds the anger, and the “energy vampires” read as a metaphor for burnout culture rather than fantasy. That final line slams hard…obedience without backbone. Fierce and unapologetic. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Management, Drones And Energy Vampires In The Office
sorenbarrett said:

A poem that felt so dystopic yet it is so true that people have a natural tendency toward compliance and with a need to be seen as normal no one disagrees in front of anyone else even twisting obviously wrong perceptions into what is right just to comply. Good write

Sore Throat
Mutley Ravishes said:

Maybe you heard Shaun that a certain organization ran a simulation-exercise in Dec.2025 for a coming \"illness\" that they seem sure will happen.

Sore Throat
Doggerel Dave said:

I completely recognise that, so well stated. I can only say that sore throats do come and do go without major incident (antibodies in my system worked overtime and did a double shift).

Sore Throat
sorenbarrett said:

A good read from someone that doesn\'t get sick. Told my kids that some days I don\'t feel well but I don\'t get sick the day I get sick is the day I die. Well written

Sore Throat
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Shaun, this made me smile…there’s an easy, grounded honesty here. It feels like a thought caught mid-walk, half worry, half self-check, and that casual openness works. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

It\'s Too Much For Most
Tristan Robert Lange said:

That phrase “kill the spirit” anchors everything here, Shaun. It frames the poem as psychological and emotional as much as anything else, and it sets the stakes high from the start. Strong choice. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

It\'s Too Much For Most
orchidee said:

Is it too much for most? Or too much for you? My hobby-horse of ET, that is! lol.

It\'s Too Much For Most
Doggerel Dave said:

I\'ll vote for social circumstances, uncertainty. disadvantage to be responsible for many, or most disturbances of the mind.
Your writes really dig into it all , Shaun.

It\'s Too Much For Most
sorenbarrett said:

Here this poem presents a world of evil that comes from the demonic. Well done

Alien Nation
Doggerel Dave said:

Your pins get stronger and more pointed all the time, Shaun. I\'m for the commitment.
Now it might come as no surprise that I haven\'t got a favourite rapper, (oh please!) but I still think your last line is a beauty!

Alien Nation
orchidee said:

And - good write Joan (of Arc), erm, SM. Just call me Napoleon - gone bit nutty! lol.

Alien Nation
orchidee said:

Yep, the one on the right looks a tad like.... we know who! lol.
With demons, I don\'t deny their existence, but tend to think some folk may be oppressed, even possessed by then, only as a last line of thought type of thing.

Alien Nation
sorenbarrett said:

It is hard to know what to believe these days. A poignant poem well done

Alien Nation
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Wait, Mick Jagger was on Alien Nation? LOL! Just kidding, of course. (He does kinda draw that vibe in the pic, no?) A raw snapshot, Shaun. The poem reads as a collision of media, fear, belief, and burnout, and the lack of resolution feels intentional. It reflects how disorienting it can be to live inside constant noise. Strong, unfiltered work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

I Sold All My Jay-Z Albums (Part.2)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

A tense piece, Shaun. It reads as a snapshot of cultural anxiety more than accusation…how rumor, revelation, and silence collide and leave people grasping for footing. You captured that instability clearly, my friend. As for me, I\'ve never owned a Jay-Z album...so win/win! LOL! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

I Sold All My Jay-Z Albums (Part.2)
sorenbarrett said:

Clever and with a bouncy beat this poem rocks and is on top with a bit of humor as well as current social media referrals. Well done

Monitoring Spirits
orchidee said:

I\'m overdoing it now! lol. I sense.... a spirit? Well, not exactly. It\'s only E.T. lol.

I Sold All My Jay-Z Albums (Part.2)
orchidee said:

I never had any of his albums to start with! lol.
Now an obvious question - did a certain alien make any albums before he went home? lol.

marissa said:

I have a lot of these people,any idea how to get rid of them when they are family?Such a sad but true poem!

Monitoring Spirits
Tristan Robert Lange said:

This reminded me how paranoia and perception can blur when trust erodes. That feeling of unseen judgment hovering just out of reach is something many people recognize. You capture that atmosphere clearly. Well done, mate! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Monitoring Spirits
sorenbarrett said:

So uncomfortable being watched one becomes self conscious. Well written

Moving Forward
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Shaun, this is about movement that isn’t triumphant, just necessary. Small steps, hidden damage, changed perspective, and a quiet sense of presence underneath it all. It’s restrained, reflective, and grounded. Well done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

sorenbarrett said:

This poem presents to me the starting point for most a block to push off of. Nicely worded
