Gods in Our Pockets
sorenbarrett said:
Wow! this one is right out of a dystopia that we have created where machines have become our gods. Where worship of the cell phone is an addiction and our self created god AI is just around the corner. A wonderful write and a fave

A great metaphor here Gray I always let nature be with my pets believing it knew best and never had any problems. But so it is with us all the unnecessary should we eliminate it, I took out my gallbladder, some remove their tonsils or appendix, one might even loose a kidney or lung. Well written and thought provoking. What of removing anger, or hatred,

Morning Steam

Recovery in an environment I can relate to.
A little envious of your start to the day. With your coffee shop too far away, mine starts with very strong black tea.

Beautiful Gray there are certain things that tie us together and coffee is one I drink it as a social offering never alone. A great mix of images of the coffee house and its social clatter. Very well done my friend

From the title, I was waiting for the Mom to slap the child. (past memories I guess) anyway, love the metaphors,. It seems as they rolled together to elegantly.
Thank you for the read.

Color has a bit to do with emotion that is why they paint isolation rooms Pepto Bismal pink. A fun read my friend

Roadside Responders
Doggerel Dave said:
Yes it was courageous, a miracle (right people right place right time) and it was the right thing to do.
It could also have been a news item yesterday, as just such acts do occur when the situation arises.
A realistic write.

It is a sad world where what the world calls heroism and courage is just doing the right thing. Where do the rest of us lie? Well written Gray

Nicely written, your poem revolves around three boys who instinctively respond to an emergency, rescuing a trapped individual from a dangerous situation. You highlight the contrast between societal labels of \"courage\" and \"miracle\" and the boys\' humble perspective of simply doing what felt right.

The Lake, the Bee, and the Crash
sorenbarrett said:
Just enough familiar to feel it enough foreign to give it appeal a tight balance. Nicely written in what feels so real but with enough play to give it a soft landing. A wonderful write Gray and a fave.

Veil of the Wolf
Thomas W Case said:
This reads like something stalking its own conscience in the dark—tight, cinematic, and uneasy in its calm.
There’s a cold, controlled intensity in it, like the poem knows exactly how wrong it feels and doesn’t look away.
