The clash of civilizations
sorenbarrett said:
Different thoughts, different beliefs east to west. Could the belief in reincarnation make a difference in how death and war are handled? There are different forms of stoic the eastern different than the western. the Spartan or the Samurai. A thought provoking poem Lorenz

The poem
Ellen Marsell said:
Your poem is a rare thing — remarkable for its honesty, grim irony, and intellectual despair.

Poems come and go but their memory lives on in the minds of the reader. A poignant write for the poet. Very nicely done

One morning a beach
Ellen Marsell said:
A subtle, sensual vignette — a space of images, sensations, and memories. The poem breathes music and gentle melancholy. So beautiful, so delicate!

The clowns
sorenbarrett said:
A good write Lorenz clowns never scared me but they did make me laugh and so they still do. Their buffoonery and slap stick antics painted faces overly dramatic and strange orange hair could there be a better model of a world leader? Well said

The clowns
Ellen Marsell said:
A portrait of modern political rhetoric — empty, loud, gesticulating, designed to entertain and lull vigilance. They are the \"Clowns of a new era\", turning governance into a spectacle.
It’s an impressive piece of work!

Little father
Ellen Marsell said:
The strength of this poem lies in its ambiguity — in that delicate space between reverence and doubt. If you trust the voice, you hear a hymn to labor and tradition. But if you begin to question it, the silence turns unsettling.

At first this seemed such a vivid portrayal of a man well pictured but then I wondered if it were a metaphor of political leadership. Nicely done

Roma
Ellen Marsell said:
An ironic, allusion-rich poem where Rome becomes a symbol of decline, beauty, and the blending of times and cultures.
The final line feels like a closing note of a new era — one that’s foreign to the Rome of the past.

I am waiting your return
sorenbarrett said:
Loved the Little Prince and Alice in Wonderland. The second from childhood and the first from adulthood. They are used so cleverly in this poem to enhance the meaning and well done too. Most lovely

The shadows of the ghetto
Ellen Marsell said:
The text can be seen as an anti-cyclical warning: if the spiral of revenge and violence does not come to a halt, the shadow of the ghetto will forever wander through new streets, carrying with it both the pain of the victims and the tragedy of the executioners.
The most powerful line is — \"No one knows when rain will come…\"

Layers of symbolism where we all live in our own ghetto and in fact are our ghetto. A lovely write and a fave

The price of blood
Tony Grannell said:
Nowt left but carrion and weeds where false gods once prevailed. A profound and brilliant passage of poetic literature.
Kind regards,

The price of blood
Ellen Marsell said:
A poetic treatise on the end of history, where man has become both the priest and the sacrifice of his own utopia. Powerful metaphors give the poem the force of an ancient curse and a tragic warning. A piercing text!

The marvelous story of worlds
Ellen Marsell said:
You write about the universe, but speak of the soul.
Behind the apparent simplicity of the imagery lies a deep meaning.
Astronomical motifs become the language of inner loneliness and hope.
Beautifully written!

The last poet
Ellen Marsell said:
Poetry of the end times and poetry of memory, in which the word becomes the only thread connecting the vanishing with the eternal.

A poem for Elvira
Ellen Marsell said:
There is a beautiful, weathered grace in these lines — a kind of music of memory. I like its unapologetic sentimentality and emotional landscapes. It wanders like an old man gathering flowers in a field of clouds, and that is its charm.
