Interesting how a few lines can create a whole imagined scene for the reader... I see thousands of tired dirty scarred warriors drop their shields in a pile and begin to trudge home to their fields and families.

One can hope. although it\'s actually a senryu simply because it focuses on emotion rather than imagery just to help you. Haiku is about nature and imagery of nature. ❤️ in any case a lovely thought

An important ‘to do’ list to follow! Reads with ease but in an orderly fashion. Thanks for the write! Interestingly I have published one of those ‘letters to God’ on my page here.

Leave me alone

Nice one! You have nailed the kind of trepidation I and others feel about the onward march of AI. It is going to take time to work this one out....

Thank you, Dave! I don\'t mean to be rude. Just don\'t know what to say most of the time. Feel more comfortable with/in my poems. And here\'s a quotation I like: A poem should not mean. But be. (Archibald McLeish)

Read most of your posts here - can\'t quite come to grips with what I want to tell you - other than: Although radically different to my stuff, I like but don\'t know how to comment on your little enigmas (which is OK, as you don\'t respond to other\'s commentary anyway).
Keep \'em coming I shall continue to at least read \'em.
Take care.

Thomas and Jane

Seems that you write much and often about death and also (in \"Angels Fly\") about loneliness and separation from family and children. You do this in a positive and poetic way I think.
Good write

(and MTV reigns supreme
no music, just a parade of shame
modernity\'s exploitive morbidity
nihilistically inhumane and insane..)
