Nothing wrong with being alone, it can consolidate one\'s own identity. Yet to remain open to other possibilities without anxiety is the way.
You have achieved that on the evidence of a very clear honest write.

Hard to respond to in one small box - however, the truth of it all shines through.

Judgment Day
Doggerel Dave said:
I feel privileged to read it, and to borrow from another faith\'s imagery, it feels like a thesis nailed to someone\'s door.
I have no religion - haven\'t since puberty (easy for me), but find it a really convincing portrait of the struggle involved in freeing yourself from a culture whose feature is strong religiosity.
I must go back and read some of your earlier work which to my shame, to date I haven\'t managed to do..

God\'s preaching love do not combine with destruction, torture and pain. A lovely write of what constitutes a sense of true religion. Lovely

My Sanity
sorenbarrett said:
Uncertainty is water in a sponge soon filling all parts. I feel this in this poem that reaches out for answers that do not exist from questions that are their own answer. A deep and somewhat dark write that leaves more questions than it askes. Lovely

A Tranquil Sea
sorenbarrett said:
A powerful write that evokes feelings of discontent with the status quo and an urge to overturn it. It raises questions that seem rhetorical but leave the mind to ponder and is set in good meter for such questioning. A most lovely write and a fave.

Contentment is not to be questioned in what ever form it takes. Change will come when desired. Each fruit ripens in its own time. A lovely write

A sad poem of confinement whether real or metaphorical. Yet we are all in our own mortal cages of flesh and bone. From this cage the only escape is fatal.
