A poem that emphasizes that we all have a part and place. Nicely written David. In unity may we all find our place and work together.

The confession of Liam Whitacker.
sorenbarrett said:
A rather severe penalty for a distant minor offence already paid for. And a judgement by given by a servant to God that should follow the scripture to judge not that judgement is God\'s alone. Now I have to be very careful not to judge this poem. Oh what the hell I thought it very well done with a great moral to not confess anything to anyone, just yourself.

This poem speaks to me with various meanings I hear it first as pertaining to immediate desires but lastly to the desire to leave this life free and return to the place of birth just as a pearl to the sea. It calls with a siren voice and the cascading words from stanza to stanza resemble waves on the sea returning one after another hypnotically calling. This one is a fave

This poem in its form seems classical in nature and narrative nature as well as wording. It is lyrical and the story seems to be almost Authorial. Mournful yet peaceful in nature it flows well and with rhyme. An enjoyable piece to read.

David this mention of bitter fruit brought to mind the song (Strange fruit) a song of man\'s violence toward each other as well. The ending of the poem seems Biblical in style. Very nicely done.

Quite heartbreaking to witness such profound anguish and conflict. May we speak light, hope, and unity to those dark places even as we read them.ππ»π

Once burnt twice shy they say. A most engaging story that bleeds of more reality than fiction. Such feelings do exist and such people as well. The dilema of making a deathbed promise to one\'s father and keeping it. Very nicely done
