Echoed and streamed

A wonderful story told in this poem of deceit and consequences. Most intriguing it is in good rhyme that carries the reader onward and to a marvelous ending. A fave

Reminding note
sorenbarrett said:
A haunting poem. So often I forget my dreams and could use a reminding note or maybe not if they are ones better forgotten. A most touching and lovely poem

Stained head
sorenbarrett said:
Misery comes through clearly in this poem of pain and hurt. It emphasizes the stain left by it. The repetition in rhyming words underlines its suffering.

In this, many of your other ‘brain dumps’ (maybe all – I haven’t managed to read the entirety) plus your public profile you show an awareness of your own situation and mind set which should be a model for everyone, in the military or out.
There are too few of you around.

Powerless to fight and give one\'s life for a fight one did not pick or a leader one did not elect. Pawn in a king\'s game. Good write

Hungry for pride
sorenbarrett said:
Loyalty to ones job seems a thing of the past when one could count on a pension and everyone retired instead of being fired. Today reduction in force, automation, relocation, new management, stock holder demands all leave one with a job duration of a year or two at most. It is a two way street loyalty between employer and employee and today the road is out. A good read

2 Fragments
sorenbarrett said:
These two may be fragments but tie together well and if there was ever an antiwar message it is here. The whole idea of greed underlying war is a strong one and my favorite lines are the last one of the final fragment (a painted mess in a field of mud.) My father, grandfather, and great grandfather all fought in wars and all said the same after it was over. It was just a bunch of foolishness, A fave

Why not, a couple more

There is a longing and a regret in these poems a wistful feeling of sadness and faint but dying hope. The emotion is there. Well written

Both with powerful meaning. Reflections indeed. There are important questions we need to ask of ourselves and no one else can answer. Very nice.

A warmed house

Embers still burn in that fire that has burnt down in this poem. A lovely write of holding on to past memories and contentment with what one had. Most lovely

Unique

Although we are all the same we are all different. We each are unique and will never be replaced by another the same. Very nicely written
