The curvature of time

Surreal and beautiful I picture a bowling ball placed on a cellophane fabric of time stretching it to the breaking point where the density of a black hole swallows it and no light escapes. Nicely done i recognize some of those tunes

It feels like a poem composed by pure inner resonance 🎸 - it plays out like a psychedelic track. Brilliant!

enchanting spells
Ellen Marsell said:
Love exists in a delicate balance between expression and silence. It is music played at the edge of audibility. A very subtle, atmospheric text.

I love this one Lorenz the phrase \"To call love by its name is to make it lie .\" means to me don\'t call it love until you are married to it for too many call passion love and calling one woman another\'s name bargains for trouble. A great write and a fave

The ballade of the hanged men
Ellen Marsell said:
This is a radically anti-romantic text. It shatters the illusion of a “beautiful death.”
Your poem compels the living to feel their own mortality. Magnificent work!

The ballade of the hanged men
sorenbarrett said:
Intriguing you have left the language just modern enough to understand. Old English I can\'t understand and middle English I understand fair. A most interesting topic hanged men to most grizzly but to others it is patience and wisdom gained by it. Surrender and pause before taking action. Progress requires letting go of control. Good write my friend

Elegy for a misplaced life
Ellen Marsell said:
In this text, the gaze reflects endlessly, like in the mirrors of an old parlor. A poem meant for deep reflection. I like it.

I am glad to hear that I am just above being gay which sound\'s so joyous. I inquired and they said heaven is a floor up and nirvana is to the right while the Elysium fields is a good walk to the left. Another good read my friend.

Wading though the grainery of symbolism Maybe John Donne will extend a helping hand. Where Melville failed and the Leviathan emerged victor a siren with stitched lips may be of help. There is much anguish and emotion in this write my friend.

Ellen Marsell said:
Tomorrow does not belong to us. We live as if it were promised, but in reality every ‘see you tomorrow’ is an act of faith spoken blindly.
This is a beautiful poem, Lorenz!

Ellen Marsell said:
The text slowly draws you in, like an underground garden. The world here is a carnival of decay: Versailles, gods, poets, the queen, religion. Everything is turned into dark masks, into grotesque figures, into a funeral opera. The gods are neutral, power is soulless, poetry feeds on carrion... Madness is a whole landscape, a living environment. Quite dark.
This is a poem about entering a kind of knowledge that destroys illusions and leaves no way back.

The mad have deeper wisdom that the world can not see or accept only through the mouth of the court jester is it pronounced. Heard only by the dead and the hanged man it is fought by religion where only the serpent has mercy on those that see it. Great write Lorenz
