Running of the Bulls
sorenbarrett said:
A beautiful poem but so poignant as well and it is the last stanza that ties it all together and poses the question that speaks to violence whether self inflicted or directed toward other something privative and archetypal. A fave my friend

Well written. Your poem explores the complex relationship between danger, thrill, and the human experience. It contemplates why people are drawn to perilous situations and how these moments create a sense of unity and ritual among participants.

Lava Light

The seventies (a sixties extension) well painted. A lava lamp still fascinates, when I see one.

The psychiatrists job is to heal but often it seems as if they are playing games or testing the patient ๐ค

Tracks of Dust
sorenbarrett said:
Beautiful my friend so well imaged it falls close to my heart having seen the advancement of all those things. Long gone by the time of my birth on this continent I saw on a Southern continent in my youth as well as the racing horses alongside. You have touched a ghost rider in my memory my friend and it deserves a fave

Hollow Hands
sorenbarrett said:
Well Gray this poem could convey many meanings but the one that I took as I read it was returning to the past with a backward clock through pressing our hands against the glass becomes a fantasy in that we can not pass through that glass but our minds do and in fantasy we focus on what could have been. A lovely write

Red, White and Blue

Thereโs a wide, cinematic sweep in thisโlike the whole day is being held in one long breath between celebration and reflection.
What stands out most is the way you balance brightness and weight, letting the imagery of light carry both joy and memory at the same time.

When they can take a punch, they can usually punch to match.
Something tells me there wasn\'t a second punch.

Have you ever left the Psychiatrist\'s office thinking to yourself, that guy\'s nuts.
Then you hand the money over, and realise you\'re the nut.

Such a wonderful picture set in images of the pugilist. Could there be metaphor here or is it just poetic painting of an instant in time. Well done my friend

Inside the Tempest

Metaphoric this poem speaks to me of the calm that is available beneath all the daily storms and stress if one will only listen for it and access it. Another lovely write Gray and a fave

Enjoy your writing. Your poem explores the interplay between overwhelming feelings and the sense of powerlessness that can accompany such deep emotional experiences.

Drool and Drive
sorenbarrett said:
Once again you have captured the essence of poetry in your images. I love dogs and have had a few, each a special pleasure. Each has been a drooler but loved them just the same. A lovely poem that does not really personify the dog but makes his qualities admirable. A fave my friend
