Such a sad story Tobani, it happens so frequently, I have a friend who was abused for many years, she got rid of him eventually and I spent much time listening to her problems and helping all I could. She now has a new wonderful partner and they are wonderful together.

Abuse an ugly monster that consumes both victim and perpetrator as well as many around it. A sad poem with a message that unfortunately those that need to hear it most will probably not hear. Well done

Fun On A Sunnier Sunday
Cheeky Missy said:
You\'re hilarious. Dumbing down reality with a playful twist is just enough fun for a day of rest, forsooth. Delightfully rendered with excellent imagery and a seriously haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
As things currently are...FOR SURE. And what does true peace look like? It seems to me everyone\'s idea of what peace exactly is differs, which then sets up conflict, ironically. At the same time, I do believe in and strive for peace. How complicated of me! ๐คฃ We humans really are complex, no? Anywho, wonderfully though-provoking write on this St. Patrick\'s Day friend. And, I do believe your poem fits with the day in this way: as St. Patrick peacefully spread his faith only for the church to take over behind him and undo much of what he set up and, to make matter\'s worse, the dude is only remembered for green beer and snakes. All of this to question, can peace really be attained, when one can work for peace only to have it completely undone in one fell swoop. Anywho, a very thought-provoking and wonderful write, TobanI! ๐น๐โ๏ธ๐ฉโ๏ธ

Cheeky Missy said:
Mmm... what we fail to recognize in the face of such an insidious reality is how lacking we are of the most essential on that score: peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Had men THAT, yes, all, there would be peace methinks. With the internal struggle alive, or seemingly quelled by the devouring of mankind our neighbors, and the world entirely itself, how can there possibly be peace? They say, \"Misery loves company;\" and I see it night and day, trying to foist itself upon me that I\'d join it. I\'d rather not. But enough. Gorgeously eloquent and excellently rendered with superb imagery and a fitly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

well written ,your poem is likely written to provoke thought and inspire awareness about the harsh realities of the world, urging readers to reflect on the cyclical nature of violence and the elusive nature of peace. It challenges the notion that true peace can ever be achieved, given humanity\'s historical context and present-day realities

It appears that violence is part of the human DNA and greed as well. It is what fuels the economy as well as war. Peace was a nice thought too bad it didn\'t work out. A poem that leaves a dark feeling and one too realistic I\'m afraid. Nicely said
