Freedom of Expression.
Tristan Robert Lange said:
💯 Totally for freedom of speech. People seem to only like it when they like the speech...but that\'s the point of free speech, it can be said without approval. There are natural consequences to saying things one shouldn\'t, so let those do the work. No need to ban speech. Well done on this, my friend! A great poem to resume \"normal services\" with. Love it! 🌹👏

Yes and yes and yes and yes and yes and yes - is that six? (should equal the number of stanzas in your poem, with which I heartily agree.)
Freedom of expression is self evidently the way to go.
I\'m just left wondering if there were some specific action/legislation in the UK recently which stirred you into this declaration?

Some restriction on speech such as that that would cause irrevocable harm to another (shouting fire in a crowded area, deliberate slander of another, false advertising) have already been restricted but anything further is questionable, I believe in politeness and curtesy but restrictions on political correctness should be left up to public response. I am for freedom of speech

I Don`t Have To Agree.

Let’s get our definitions clear here, can we?
If that gun is real, then I would agree to anything.
If, however, that gun is a figure of speech known as a metaphor (very popular hereabouts) then I’m behind you (still a safer position whatever the context) one hundred percent……
A great attitude really and there’s not enough of it where I live and quite possibly the world, Tobani.👍
PS: Great write too.👍

Me being daft - I played Russian Roulette incorrectly with someone. I loaded ALL BUT ONE chamber of the gun, and it was my turn to go first. Doh! lol.

I remember reading that when contraction reaches a point where it can\'t contract anymore it naturally starts to expand.
Great write.

Truth! No two people can agree on everything...and I don\'t think lock-step agreeing is the point of relationships, let alone healthy relationships. Powerful poem, Natiella! 👏🌹

Good write, PL. The greatest lesson ever learned we learned in kindergarten. Share your toys. Don\'t hit. Hold hands when you cross the street. OH, how far we stray.

Nataiella this poem speaks to me. Nicely stated it speaks to everybody\'s freedom not just one. I could never understand why it was so important to some people to convince everyone to their point of view. Let all have their own point of view what does it cost? Very nicely stated in poetic form.

Not going to lie, I thought you were going to talk about a life living in a pineapple under the sea while in tighty whiteys. Ahoy, matey! All jokes aside, this is a most profound and truthful poem, my friend, and a fave. 🌹👏

Clever metaphor—sponges teach us growth through openness!
Absorb, expand, and thrive—wise words to live by.
