GRATIAS (GAME OVER)

“To you, thanks I give for the jest.”
It has a slightly formal, almost ceremonial feel compared to how we’d phrase it in modern languages; like something a toga‑wearing stand‑up comic might say after a clever punchline. “I thank you for the joke”🕊️🙏🏻

Loved both the format and the message in this poem. Short and to the point it\'s wording is frustrating in reminding of messages received where access is denied on line. Password changed, wrong user name, account disabled, no record of such account on and on access denied where one had been before. The fun stops. A pertinent and poignant write Tobani

Forsooth. Too many years ago my brothers\' line was something very like, \"... whoa! Let some steam off him!\" Pity we cannot indulge in a cuppa Barry\'s thanks to a heated exchange, haha. And oh the jokes, indeed, played on the souls who can\'t avoid taking themselves too seriously. Delightfully rendered with excellent imagery and good humor, and a definitely haunting poignancy. Thank you so very much for sharing.

I dearly love how capably you make me burst out laughing. Poor Harry indeed! And while, of course, males and females in the \"animal kingdom\" cannot board up together for even one night without engaging in procreation, it\'s hilarious when you address reality. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a waltzing poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Exactly, Tobani! You know I love these in their entirety.This one is just a brilliant. Each “wise man” bit lands like a wink and a nudge, but still leaves something to real to chew on, as they always do. Always a pleasure to read this series and your work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

That English teacher sounds like a real jerk.
They say you always remember the good Teachers . That\'s half true as you remember the bad . My English Teacher was very helpful and didn\'t Hit you like the rest. She was also a Babe, but that\'s beside the Point.
People always say that I\'m very quiet. I usually say \' I\'m not Quiet l\'m just between sentences\'.
Anyway enough of my Ramblings: A fine Poem.

As a student I really do resonate with this, how people often care more about the fact you look unhappy rather than thinking about why (it\'s often them hahaha, so I\'m glad they don\'t ask). It makes me feel even better looking at the long list of comments who reciprocate the feelings.
Great Write and Thank you

My invisible self. How very wonderful to get inside your mind. I was translucent at school by many teachers however I have two or three that truly were there with me. What a wonderful subject, you took me back to being 11, kudos. 🌹

The real me is the person that many cannot see but those who know you are those who can always see the real you Tobani.

Nataiella, this hits with truth...and that’s always hard to shake. The way you hold that emotional distance...it’s not cold, it’s protective. The repetition of judgment and questions mirrors the weight of living unseen. You captured that inner other-world beautifully, my dear friend. Hope all has been well in my absence. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

They\'ve a term, or rather terms, psychological labels for such behaviors, and nowadays a plethora of support groups for all of us who never were exactly \"extroverted,\" nor the most sociable [by their standards], nor as ready to render ourselves complete fools by answering or responding as if we completely understood. I doubt we\'re really that odd, but who knows. By adulthood, my loving father advised me to keep my jaw from hanging open [an unconscious gesture] lest people think me stupid when he knew otherwise. Theoretically we\'ve an ability to live freely now. Perhaps we\'ve only rather found a place where others like ourselves are. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a vibrant poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.
