Tobani, this is raw and visceral…you don’t hold back on the imagery or the weight of that deal with the devil. The closing line hits like a cold, final release. Very strong work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ A fave!

A poem of torment where suicide is seen as a protection against future harm. Graphic it the form of Mayan or Aztec sacrifice it yells out to the reader of pain. Nicely done Tobani

Not exactly symantics, yet bordering on the same, this is a fun philosophical discussion indeed. Aspersions, eh? \"Judge not and ye shall not be judged--\" seems apropos. Since I cannot justify myself, guess I prefer to avoid the discussion altogether. Charming and beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy indeed. Thank you very much for sharing.

Tobani, this is a measured weighing of scales, my dear firend…turning over every angle until you land on the simple truth of just being. The steady rhyme makes the reasoning all the more grounded. Nicely done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛ A fave!

I\'d like to live peacefully with little, although there are people who want more and more, and that\'s fine with them. Dignity is the driving force. Thanks for sharing. Best regards.

My friend, something profound descended on your pen. Few lines which carry an almost unbearable burden. Loved it

A Marxist idea that didn\'t quite work due to man\'s nature toward corruption and greed but a most interesting idea none the less. Too bad that most men\'s nature is not a giving one. A fun read my friend

Cheeky Missy said:
Ahem. I see, you and he have had a teté-a-teté. God\'s rendition puts the devil to shame, which is why he advises you against God\'s and tells us what to think. So far as I can see his lies are the closest he can get to attaining what is forbidden him, \"...I shall be as God--\" as we see what happened to our first parents when they believed that lie and disobeyed. But enough. Twas the reason souls imbibe mind-altering substances. Beautifully rendered in delightful brevity with a curious poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Tobani, these hit like quick jolts…sharp and stripped to the bone. The brevity makes them linger…letting the weight of each moment settle in after the words are gone. Powerful snapshots, my friend. A total fave and I hope more see it my way! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

\"Devil Said Hello Brother....\" This turn of phrase is mind-blowing !... One wonders what reply he got... By the way, is the devil always a \"he\" ?!...

Interesting concept I guess depending on which god is being referred to in a Christian world or what sect one belongs to brother or son would be appropriate. Duality in the Jannus mode old as time it carries on. Good write Tobani
