This thing iof committed and loyal is amongst what many set out to offer for our eyes. You nail it w a deft and skilled style accruing splendor most never reach and the wonderment for me is you possess no secret words or magic it’s accomplished w usual tools achieving unusual excellence. I salute.

That is a Genuine Epic worthy of continued study and many lines have varied interpretation that speak to Truth w the largesse of paragraph but with succinct phrase the job is done w preciously sensitive and evocative word. The God, the kid, The typhoid cart viciously calls out and exposes zealots who frame a one sided view without a peek to that cart metaphorically travails hidden within flimsy ignorance explained weakly by FREE WILL. I could pick and examine the gems here for hours. I am humbled by this effort of sanctity and real. Thanks

Sounds like tempting God to tempt us - the last two lines.
I do tend to \'float by\' some things in \'blind faith\' maybe. There are the difficult questions of \'why troubles to those who are \'good\' \', etc.
Even the Psalmists ask some questions in some of the Psalms.

A bit of dark humour from me - fictional. A \'magician\' friend could eat glass without being injured. I said \'Pop round to see me, it will save me on the washing up!\' lol.

I could kinda \'like\' this in a way -sounds like worldly wisdom to me; the ways of thinking some have got into.

Bobby O said:

I loved everything about this. To pull off a realistic monologue snd snartlysplash it w rhymes that doesn’t “candy” up the believability of the message and it moves with nice timing and lingers only when the point may be worthy of pondersnce. And we had an end and we are set for a sequel. Where is she? Where is he? Surely the maddening crowd will demand the answers ??
Nice write
Good read

Yasmen takes her Hajib off.

I was hooked by these words David, and I believe that this happens in many ways in the way some parents control their offspring.
Freedom to be your own self is something that ALL deserve.

Yasmen takes her Hajib off.
Parisab said:

The cultural references are misplaced as a young Persian/Iranian American would not shout out in Arabic-fleeing from a religious state, forced hijab by parents is very unlikely-however I can understand the intent and appreciate the empathy, poet friend
