Turmoil In a Crazy Mind
Cheeky Missy said:
What if, however, sadly when you were told the way to peace, you rejected it? We seem to have this twisted cry for help, pushing aside whom will deliver us for more torture. Beautifully rendered with a haunting poignancy and excellent imagery. Thank you for sharing.

Very, very lovely and rather inspiring, a very pretty little number I\'m certain the purveyors of knicknacks should put and grave on all. Charmingly rendered with excellent imagery and a rather tender poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

A most lovely poem directing one to give comfort and aid when needed. This giver will receive in return for their gift. A lovely poem of helping those in need well done

I Have a GUN ( But we can talk)
Cheeky Missy said:
Spot on! Reminiscent of the tales from our own civil war not quite two centuries ago, the point of these wars not necessarily so much extinguishing the enemy as the very men who built society and kept people on the earth. Ergo our best and brightest were sent to be slaughtered, brothers, fathers, uncles, cousins, to simply be slaughtered in the name of a good cause which didn\'t truly exist. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a very charming poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

That\'s a great sort of proverb. Can I ask if you wrote it or it\'s a quote?

Heart or Mind.
Cheeky Missy said:
Since \"...the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, who can know it?\" (Jeremiah 17:9 [see also verse 10]), the mind seems initially preferable. Yet I cannot help but think the mind is controlled by said heart, until this conundrum leaves me floundering. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

I Got Burned.
Cheeky Missy said:
You\'re not allowed to cull laughter with such a macabre and gristly rendition, yet you invariably do, somehow, until I\'m left here at its conclusion, trying to stifle smirks and giggles. How capably rendered with gorgeous imagery and a ghastly, haunting poignancy, yet a very lively sense of humor.

Heart or Mind.
sorenbarrett said:
I love question poems because it leaves it up to the reader and thereby decreases resistance. The question frees the mind to think and choose. Here the question between heart and mind is the age old split between logic and emotion, male and female in traditional thought and as has been thought in old myth the perfect god is a hermaphrodite that shares both qualities. One without the other is hard to imagine Even Star Trek\'s Spock had a little feeling. Very nicely written this poem dichotomized into two three line stanzas
