Definitely, beats me why clowns start wars when the good times are rolling.
Life isn\'t long enough to do all the things you want.
Wild horses and a coffee do it for me.

Thomas, this feels expansive and intimate at once. The way you move from tuna and coffee to memory and mortality…there’s something quietly profound in that. “There’s too much life to let it end at death” lands like conviction, not sentiment. Beautiful meditation. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Well done. Your poem revolves around the interconnectedness of life experiences, memory, and the continuity of existence beyond death. It reflects on significant moments from the past and the ways they resonate in the present.

So much metaphor in this Thomas life death a coffin can yet no what is canned is preserved as memories are preserved and one has to ask is this what life is a memory. Our memory, others memories what we leave canned to be tasted by those to come as they open those cans be it music, poems, stories, photos, things we made or families we created each a smell, a taste, a vision of who we are. A fave my friend

Thomas, this is a powerful reckoning. The litany of places, damage, and desire moves steadily toward something quieter and truer. Ending with the creator waiting…hands folded over the hole…that’s not judgment, it’s mercy. Well done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

A powerful poem of oneself.Well done. Your poem expresses a farewell to various elements of the speaker\'s life, reflecting on the past with a sense of nostalgia, regret, and acceptance. It encapsulates a journey through personal chaos and the search for meaning, ultimately acknowledging both loss and the desire for creation.

A poem that comes from past memories and injuries that have left scars and scabs, of sunny days turned to rain and mud on one\'s feet. A lovely poem Thomas

It brings out the worst in people, surely. We can add \'sadly\', especially if it applies to any relative(s) we know.

Friendship said:

Well written. Your poem revolves around themes of urban survival, poverty, and the often-overlooked experiences of marginalized individuals. The poet deals with the struggle to navigate a neglected city environment while grappling with addiction and a sense of invisibility. The imagery evokes a visceral response to the harsh realities of life on the streets, emphasizing the contrast between the hustle of the working world and the quiet desperation of those living on the fringes.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

The title drew me in immediately, Thomas…I could write volumes from personal past experience, and I’m thankful those days are behind me now. The poem meets that weight head-on, moving through hunger, addiction, and invisibility with clear eyes and no excess. It’s survival rendered plainly, and that’s what makes it powerful. Wonderful job, dear poet. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

This one hits hard like a morning hangover. It dwells not only in the head but sour gut. Raw but half digested like the aftertaste of vomit that one can not clear from one\'s mouth. It is visceral and heavy I can almost hear the buzz of flies. Well written Thomas and a fave

Paul Bell said:

I always think, a guy that can scatter breadcrumbs for the birds even though he\'s down on his luck is a stayer.
The haves and the have-nots, a gulf that\'s getting bigger as the world grows. I\'m not even sure if it\'s pity we give anymore, we\'re all just one mortgage payment from joining him.

\"like a beetle carrying a couch\" absolute knockout punch. Perhaps the only word befitting the poem in my limited vocabulary would be \'Brilliant\'.

Life in the raw, always think if you wake up, it\'s already a great day.
Usually give the mirror a miss, it blatently lies.
Feckin freezing here too, even the eskimos are complaining.
