it’s okay when they do it, but it’s a problem when I do it
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Demar, what a compact and provocative piece. It exposes the selective morality surrounding prosperity while leaving ambition and divine permission in uneasy conversation. Three lines carrying one hell of a challenge, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

and why should I be rude, angry or upset?
Tristan Robert Lange said:
A lovely moment of perspective, my friend. Gratitude quiets the inner turmoil and restores what truly matters. Beautifully expressed. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

thank you God for libraries!
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Powerful and concise poem, Demar! When a library disappears, a community loses access not only to books but to memory, imagination, history, and one another. Your final enlargement of that loss gives this tiny poem tremendous force. Excellent write, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The loss of a liberty is the loss of the country I love and we have already lost so many.

The clear and simple matter
But not alas to all
Some more prone to scatter
Confusion as they fall

Those who are bound by desire see only that which can be held in their hands.
Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a quietly resilient piece, Demar. Material circumstances may restrict the present, but they cannot possess the imagination or determine the future. The title gives those three lines tremendous depth. Excellent write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

$265.08 in my bank account
Jabberwocky said:
That\'s 265 more than me!
But the kids are fed and the dishes done, and the sun is out and I can burn off dinner with a walk in the large woods behind my house. I can see them from my garden.
Life is good.
I hope you have woods in your life.

sorenbarrett said:
It is the last line that hooked me Demar. It seems true but then I have to ask is that true. A powerful statement that is not honored today where it is eminent domain that takes from the individual to give to needs of many. Forced taxation for the good of society. Agree or not that is how it is. Yours is a powerful statement that challenges this. I love it.

cowards get no empathy from me
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Demar, this is a compact declaration of severance. Once someone becomes willing to destroy even their own integrity, distance can become an act of self-preservation...blunt, fierce, and effective. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Demar, this is painfully funny. Financial disaster meets retail consolation, and somehow the purchase still wins the argument. Great little piece, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Don\'t look upon it as a chain.
Look upon it as a love token.
As I often get told. What yours is mine, and what\'s mine I keep.

Yesterday I blamed the sun for my problems

A mix of haiku and senryu. Nicely done. We always strive to understand things, in reality it’s a mystery, I believe. A fave!

This one is relatable Demar, blaming one thing and then realizing that you might’ve been wrong. I like to think I don’t do that but I do, wonderful job
