OUTREACHED
Augustus said:

Old tires are thrown out as are our old ideas. New ones can be fitted and balanced as can our livelihood which is under constant threat, complicated by relationships and crises. We can hide or face these head on but The journey ends for us all the same way--- interred in something resembling the tire bay. Some careers depend on being published. Just another way to die. I don\'t even know if I am close but I had fun. Thanks.

I'm not sure I got the whole picture or not: Drinking one's self, drugging to death. Beyond the help of social and church services. Dying on the way home in the snow. Sad, but true. Thanks for sharing.

paranoid about the earths crust
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

WELCOME GGB (love the name !) MPS needs more peots like you whose poems are bold ~ enigmatic ~ full of fantasy ~ difficult to fathom & analyse. For me ~ as a classical poet ~ this is modern poetry at its best ! SEVENTEEN (a prime nunber) unpunctuated lines devoid of rhyme but not rhythm and reason ! The Earth's Crust (the lithosphere) is thin where the tectonic plates meet and in earthquakes people have fallen through lost forever in the underworld ~ something we have all experienced "skating on thin ice" ! Lines 12 & 13 crystalise your phobia ~ "You see I fear the Earths crust maybe too weak for me # and falling through its realms just to go to the shops". This is a part explanation of your agoraphobia and gives you reason enough to be housebound for 40 years. In the 21st C there s no reason to go out ~ mail order and doorstep delivery. The "real world" is not much fun any more. I can't visualise you "caving" ~ I love it ~ and occasionally (where the crust is very thin) I have glimpsed the "Centre of the Earth" awesome. Thanks for sharing ~ more please BRIAN Please check my latest "formal" poem COLORS OF AUTUMN ~ Thanks B
