Very well thought out write addressing the horrifying and sickening issue of rape. I have no tolerance or understanding why any person inflicts this on anyone, to me there are excuses, contributing factors etc, there is no justification. Very well written

Cannot fault your revulsion to rape in all the forms you’ve listed here – nor the hypocrisy, greed and dissemblance which helps perpetuate it. The edgy cynicism which rounds it off provides a necessary critique of apathy.
Great write.

Ye, raped, and in some cases, re-raped in court.
For years, monsters have been getting away with it.
If it was your sister or girlfriend, most of the time, you would make sure it never happened again.

I love the mix and blend of different types of rape in this poem. The use of word play (phalanx for phallus is master level) The use of sexually equated words (discharged) The individual is raped, the economy, the justice system all of society with meager excuses and justification by the perpetrator and observer. A well thought out poetic write. A fave

Dang. Nicely put. Unfortunately it\'s such the existence of so many people nowadays. People try running from the big question WHY AM I HERE, and instead live brain mush day to day unhappy convinced life is great

Rebellion, this is sharp and playful. Beneath the humor and wordplay, you caught the Moravia thread...consumerism, sexuality, and the absence of patience in a shallow age. Strong, witty piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The Magic Flute
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, I’ve walked that place where music should comfort and instead becomes the trigger...where a kiss claws open memory rather than closeness. You put that trauma cleanly on the page; it’s brutal and true. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The magic flute plays throughout this poem and the queen of the night sings to Pamina as does Papageno. Can a person recover from trauma depends upon the trauma and the person and maybe the music. Very well done my friend

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Wow. Just 🤯! My friend, this is searing…a relentless build from the boy’s quiet conviction to the mob’s brutal silencing. That repeated “What is freedom?” echoes long after the close. And the irony at the end stings…powerful, fearless work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ I’m in awe!

Bella Shepard said:
Dear poet, this brought a lump to my throat and a profound sadness, for its unnerving truth. All too often, freedom is looked upon as something that satisfies personl desires, but is not extended to those who think differently. This poem lands a punch, right in the middle of the conscience, well done!!

A poetic parable where in freedom we suffer the consequences of others the do now believe in it. Conformity is the formula of society whether bee, ant, or human variation from social norms results in expulsion, banishment or even death. It is in that choice that freedom resides. Lovely

Cuboid Face and The Mom
Tristan Robert Lange said:
This is powerful, my friend. The fear you paint...cuboid face, snake uncoiled, neon city drowning reality...it all presses like a nightmare, chaotic and relentless. But the turn is everything. That single kick in her belly collapses the dread, pulling her back to what matters. A mother’s priorities don’t erase fear, but they anchor her against it, stronger than the illusions around her. You captured that shift so profoundly, my friend. Love this! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Cuboid Face and The Mom
sorenbarrett said:
The poem picks at the brain with its symbolism. The snake a pregnancy and child. Is the snake phalic or satanic or does it portend wisdom is the question. Was the bite impregnation or am I digging too deep. Does stepping out of the picture symbolize stepping out of reality or into it after a vision? Questions the tumble in the mind.

Intriguing. Allowing your unborn child to ground you into reality, having to be strong for them. What are your thoughts whilst writing this if you do not mind my asking?

Humorous. Reminds me of reading or hearing bad reviews about yourself and snarkily shutting them down behind the screen, or perhaps their back.

My friend, this had me laughing…the thunderclap critiques, the fly-check, the density turned Nobel Prize. You’ve flipped pompous judgment into playful defiance, and that’s powerful. A joy to read. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

With \"Expository\", etc and of course the complaint of \"\"No ambiguity and layered meaning\" I\'ve after much difficulty identified him - he\'s an art critic, and while I\'m no fan and categorically believe wrong the old adage \"Those who can do; those who can\'t teach\" I do believe it\'s corollary with respect to art critics may well have some merit.
Entertained no end.

The chain of thought is fascinating as is the humor of associations made. It is so true that I can\'t remember the last time I heard oxygen mentioned in a poem nor hydrogen yet combine the two and water appears quite frequently almost as much as tears and the flow of sadness. A wonderful poem my friend and a fave.

Real connection is a rare thing, I feel . Most struggle on, make do, try to delude themselves into being happy with what they\'ve got...
The attendant mood so very well portrayed.
