Ideals
Friendship said:
Well written. Your poem explores the concept of striving and the inherent imperfections of life. It emphasizes that the journey of reaching for ideals, even when they seem unattainable, is what gives life meaning.

The Quiet Tangle Inside Us
Vipassana said:
This might be the essence of the poem
In all these ways, we disappear—
a slow unraveling beneath love’s name.
The poem seems to ask--is it worth it, what one loses as one serves others? Is it out of love that one serves or just \"loves\' name\"? The poem seems to evoke a gentle bitterness--if that makes sense.

A wonderful poem Gray on as I see it political correctness, timidness to be who we are, fear of offence and the desire to be liked at any cost. We call it love or rather many call it love I call it dishonesty. What a wonderful write a fave

Piggy\'s Quiet Revelation
Thomas W Case said:
This is deliciously dark—grim humor stitched with quiet menace.
Piggy’s rise reads like a fable soaked in blood, every line a slow twist tightening around the farmer’s fate.

The Price of Bravery
sorenbarrett said:
Here here Gray a lovely poem that tells it as it is. Fear must be conquered by facing it. It is not that the brave do not fear it is though their fear that they face that they are called brave.

Long Gone Cursive
Vipassana said:
Once, we danced in circles,
but now, we type in straight lines,
hoping the loops don’t unravel entirely.
you gain something and you lose something. as much as I mourn the loss of handwriting, I have to say the laptop computer has made writing (poems, etc) much much easier.

The Stillness Between Footfalls
Vipassana said:
See there—His face in the stranger\'s stare,
the flicker of wings slicing autumn air.
Your meditation blooms where the hours falter,
carved into the marrow of passing time.
Love that.

The agony of steel tipped pens and inkwells; now mastery of the keyboard.
There are even now strong memories embedded there for me. Thanks.

Long Gone Cursive
sorenbarrett said:
I like the subtle introduction of the mechanical and technological into what was once personal and individualized now all the same. The world has become such in order to fit a maximum number of crayons in a box they all have to be lined up the same way and be the same size and shape. Same with people uniformity with the masses. Well done Gray

Dodgeball
sorenbarrett said:
Such a moral in this that gos counter to all political correctness of the day. We live in a world creating fragile individuals. I was told that when my uncle was small and chased home by several bullies my grandmother told him if it happened again she would give him a whipping much worse that theirs. He said but they are bigger and her response was a big dog might win in a fight but a small one can get in a few nips. Well written Gray
