Catatonia
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, this is searing. The way you set God, Devil, and life in collision...light, darkness, questions that stab...is super powerful. And that line about “collecting taxes in your tears” has stuck with me. Strong, powerful work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Powerful and haunting! The poem’s vivid imagery and dark questions about life, God, and suffering really make you reflect. I love how it challenges blind faith and forces the reader to confront harsh truths. Nicely written.

A bit of Friedrich Nietzsche here. Years ago I wrote an essay tongue in cheek about the force of darkness. Toward the end of this poem I sense a bit of Dante as well. Nicely written

The Call of The Calling
Doggerel Dave said:
Some calls...... I find it hard to be specific, because for me the call itself felt abstract, while the feelings it evoked definitely did not.
I see it so well painted.

The Call of The Calling
Neville said:
There is a sadness here that seemed to linger for some time after my first read .. and then this was tempered with a sigh of resignation and relief .. it takes quite some poem to have that kind of impact on me these days (like a time lapse or delay) always a sure sign of quality .. write on brother ..

Yay! First comment! My friend, this is moving. The call slipping in quietly, then echoing until “the call finally came”...that refrain hits hard, like a breath finally being released. Strong, and very beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Devil’s Medical Plan
Tristan Robert Lange said:
My friend, this one hit sharp. Dark wit runs through every stanza...queues in death, cauldrons as democracy, even the Devil with acid reflux. That moment...“still burning fossil fuel!”...sealed it. Clever, haunting, and funny all at once…satire that bites hard and, of course, I love that! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Now most writes have just one hook this one should be illegal it had so many. So well done with one following another it could be the modern Divine Comedy. Daunting oh sorry that was Dante wasn\'t it. Very creative and the humor had me smiling all the way. Such a good fit for today you are quite the tailor, too bad all suits are mass produced today. Enough enough simply a fave

This is sharp and ironic…the wish flipped on its head, love turned into pursuit of a very different kind. Dark humor at its finest, my friend. Brilliant and thus a fave.🌹🖤🙏🕯️

That moment where debt is called “a blessing of the country and not a bane” struck me hard. It’s biting commentary...society preaching survival through ruin. You captured it raw. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ A fave, my friend!

sorenbarrett said:
Deeply philosophical this poem paints a dark picture. It is poignant and troubling in a capitalistic society built on greed and appearance where pressure to excel beyond others is a mark of masculinity, virility and power. Two lines struck me in this poem.
And God said everyone is allocated a quota of happiness.
One should choose how to spend—
Well written and it gives one thought
