Vague enough to apply to many things yet specific enough to provoke thought this poem cries out. Nicely done

Yes, my friend…this is the struggle of our age—creation and destruction entwined. You’ve captured the paradox with sharp edges. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Tis far better to give hope than answers. Hope people will follow answers they disregard, disbelieve and will not follow out of stubbornness. Good write

Wow, this is powerful. The imagery of light versus darkness really makes you reflect on the spiritual battles we face.
Deep and thought-provoking. Evil hiding in plain sight is so real this poem captures it perfectly. Such strong words. It reminds us to stay awake and discerning in a world full of hidden deceptions.

Fun poem, my friend. Father’s Day is in June where I’m from, but then again, everyday is father’s day for those who father. 🤷♂️ #Truth. Silliness aside, loved it! 🤘😎

Ramblings of a mad man
Tristan Robert Lange said:
The title reminded me of Ozzy\'s Diary of a Madman. Regardless madmen rambling makes for great poetry, so carry on my friend! We all go a little mad sometimes and, as the cookie crumbles, we poets can ramble! 🤣 Glad to see you post again and sending the love right back to you! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The poem’s strength lies in its honest questioning and its faith in expression. It doesn’t claim certainty, but it dares to speak anyway. That’s poetry at its most human.

Poetry can have power as is raised in this work. It does depend on who reads it and how it strikes them at that moment. It is a game of chance but worth playing. Nicely worded

I once heard a fascinating lecture by a Mennonite pastor who was making the case for us to question our use of Technology. I forget which person he was citing from, so you might already know this. But the famous quote he was quoting was \"The median is the message\". The things we use affect us in ways we never imagine, and in ways we don\'t notice as it is a gradual perception change.
He then gave a few examples.
When we are saying things orally (telling stories or poetry around a campfire or even just together), it is a bonding Tribal thing. The median of oral communication enforces this tribal outlook on the world.
Then we invented writing, which isn\'t in itself evil, and it allowed us to reach new advancements in every single field. We had an immortal memory so it seemed so we weren\'t stuck blindly passing information onwards through oral communication for the rest of our lives. Super helpful, BUT it gives us an individual outlook. We spend less time with others, start caring less about others for we become more self dependent.
Now, with the rise of social media and the telephones, we have a new dilemma. We feel like we are communicating with people, but we have a barrier in between us. We aren\'t physically present with anyone, but we feel as if though we are. We are lying to ourselves in every respect. Social media is a Tribe of Individuals. We still are selfish though we think we care, but social media neither fulfills us in the tribal aspect for we aren\'t really experiencing what it means to be in a tribe, and also we often become absorbed into the social media losing our individuality as we seek to find some fulfillment in it, though it never fulfills.
Nice poem!

I guess rarer know than not. Have you read 1984 and Animal Farm? The assessment must be that who is ignorant shall pay dearly. Ergo, \"ignorance is bliss.\" Nicely rendered with excellent imagery and a curious poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
