Dark and sad this poem speaks to the black side of man and yet it has such good wording and images. Well done

Psalm to God.

A searing, telling work. It also echoes the sentiment of one pronounced dead and cancelled in the daily grind. It would be notable should the apathetic, fearful, non-existent one somehow respond. 🙏🏻🕊

Where the mind goes and how it works or not when it has suffered too much. My uncle was with General Patton when he entered Germany and they were the first to liberate one of the concentration camps, he aid the he will never forget the smell and the vision of suffering there. A simple write in many ways but so complex below the surface. Very well done

Simple but profound, singular but branches out, tackles without effort the substance of life during challenging seasons. 🙏🏻🕊️

God talks to Adrian in a Dream.
sorenbarrett said:

Ah yes there was that tower of Babel thing wasn\'t there. I guess that those bad poems of mine have made it to God\'s ear and like a note off key have caught his attention. Shhhhh he said. A fun read David and it has much wisdom as well.

There was a time and a day, a social structure and manner before social decay… I suppose the upper crust folks still keep some modicum of social norms… but I’m not privy to that world… good to see and feel it still exists in poems… 🙏🏻🕊

I loved the flow and rhyme of this poem that seems in some ways folk legend in style. It has a ghostly feel to it. Haunting. Very nice and a fave

I can’t breathe
Mutley Ravishes said:

I\'m supposedly
A cop
I and my \"colleagues\"
Let me
Be filmed openly
Committing an atrocity
Knowing full well
On social media
It would be posted
And my police buddies and innocent citizens
Would be toasted
In riots
Go figure

A very touching and carefully written write which makes you ask yourself so many questions, the last verse in particular is poignant, to end her suffering not the children\'s. Great write

The Glorious Joy of Death.
sorenbarrett said:

A tragedy to one a blessing to another, what one sees as devastating today may turn out to be salvation tomorrow. All things have their own purpose that we in our short time span and from a narrow perspective can not see. Judge not it is said and well so too. Heart felt write David.

Tragic stories. I was posting up a poem inspired by a mythologicalGreek tale that paralleled this but posted another last minute, leaving the former as a draft. In hindsight I see now that the staggered posting might be to everyone’s benefit. Still reeling from it. 🙏🏻🕊
