the aftermath: Act II

Falling from a dream into reality is a shock and requires strength to surmount A most raw and felt poem of withdrawal not just from a drug but the drug that we put in us in our mind about perceptions ours and others. Lovely

Soman Ragavan said:
The very title challenges one of the most common assumptions : that gravity applies equally to all. Some are born gently, with love; others are expelled even when in the womb. They are unwanted right from birth. They are destined to a sorry life….
Conflict existed even in those who came before. The birth was just a by-product…
The point about the impact and the crater is impactful… You can hardly walk away from a blow being totally unscathed. It has to leave some effects on you. Physical or emotional. The crater is there as proof that the contact had an effect.
Words are knives. They are also nuclear weapons, whose radioactivity drift far, far away and penetrate everywhere; there is no escape from them. For how long can you hunker down in an underground bunker ?... In Japan the radioactivity lasted many decades
“and the light you see
is just the supernova
that survived-...”
Thus, the poet appears like a bright light but was the product of a collision...

the aftermath

A very open, honest account of some of the effects of addiction on ones feelings, emotions and behaviour. Maybe it\'s that moment of tenderness that they are really craving. Real and from the heart write

It\'s an honest portrait.
Everything is counterfeit, they say, drugs get you high, when they take you low.
They eat our bodies, and take our souls.
The day I got high, was the day I got low...
If you hear his voice..
You\'ll know.

Wow! what a dig. There seems to be a good deal of resentment here and the view of others as talentless and not to be respected. I hear the spite in this poem. Well written and powerful

He bought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

Welcome
Very hard on yourself
We all experiment when young
You don\'t need to be nude to be desirable
I desire more writes from this talented pen
Super rhyme and content
