For myself it would seem some hemodialysis is required before letting the bloodgates flow. 🙏👍🏻

A serious write! Starting with Hemingway\'s statement, you develop it and express your own vision of the subject.

There are times when your mind is blank when searching for an Idea.
Then you find Inspiration is right under your Nose, in these small details of life.
A good Write.

That indeed is poetry my friend noticing the little things and being able to articulate them in ways that others have not thought of. Well done

Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a deeply meaningful poem, Thomas. The struggle to embrace Sabbath feels profoundly authentic...especially when a lifetime of relentless productivity has taught us to feel guilty for honoring our human limits. This reached me personally, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The Uncomfortable Silence
sorenbarrett said:
Thomas this one makes sense even as a kid to be told one must rest was not something to be looked forward to. Motors need continual running and machines rust when not used. An athlete needs continual warming up and stretching to not pull muscles. Written in such an understandable language. Loved it Thomas

Thomas, I feel and understand your position perfectly, as I feel very much the same way. I do believe this to be a perfect depiction of old age.

Stillness and silence can kill to a life built on constant motion. When we allow ourselves to simply exist, things begin to get peaceful and become truly liveable. Good stuff, Thomas. 🕊️🙏

Thomas, this hit me hard. The honesty in it is relentless, and because of that, it never feels sentimental. That final turn landed like a punch…a reminder that survival carries its own responsibility. Powerful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Obituary/dedication which pulls no punches and is all the better for that.
Usual richness of detail you do so well, Thomas.

Paul Bell said:
That\'s why only ex drinkers can get through to people.
You have to walk the walk before the talk.
Every addict is someone. Someone at some time that led the normal life and had the same dreams we all have.
This is why the steps are so important. Great write.

That is what I love about your poems Thomas the grit of everyday, the real and the living that go into them. They are like something that one can identify with a part of all of our pasts, shadows of memories we all have. This one no less projects that feeling of avoiding things that remind us of loss or pain now that something or someone is gone and the sadness of how they went. This one packs a lot of emotion my friend.

A beautiful message on how the world keeps spinning and sometimes in our control but mostly on natures whims.

Thomas, this really moved me. It confronts mortality without becoming bleak…turning our limited time into a call for tenderness, honesty, and reconciliation. Powerful poem, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A powerful poem. Your poem explores the futility of holding on to anger, pride, and resentment, highlighting life\'s transience. I love how you encourage us readers to embrace kindness, forgiveness, and the present moment, emphasizing that life is too short to be consumed by grudges or the quest to be right.
