This happens often. A person is not speaking to you, but to the image of you in their own mind. An illusion of control, labels, and all that. At least in this clash there is a heart. Perhaps these things need to truly break apart, exposing the hearts underneath. Cool.

Abdullah… this carries a quiet, sharp tension…that shift in perspective turns a small moment into something much deeper. It doesn’t need to say much to land, and it stays with you. Powerful, thoughtful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Sharp and unsettling—identity colliding with perception in tight, tense lines.
The grit cuts deep, exposing the quiet violence of assumption and mis-seeing.

It is embarrassing how ignorant we all are of other cultures and even geography. What is not in our immediate vision does not exist. A great write of such so personal and real in its life humor. Well done

Abdullah… this carries a sharp, unflinching honesty…that image of watching while praying flips everything on its head. It brings out that quiet tension where trust slips into control, and it lingers. Strong, thought-provoking piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Nicely written. Your poem addresses the concept of wealth as a gift from God and the anxiety that accompanies it.

Needlework
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Abdullah, this hit me hard…that suffocating overlap between observer and sufferer feels inescapable. The detail of the tubes like snakes turns the moment into something invasive and alive, and it deepens that helpless waiting…like reality should shift, but won’t. It lingers in a heavy way. Strong work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Beautifully written. It\'s the small things that stick with us. There\'s always something special about home food, especially made from your mother during Ramadan. Desi food is always lovingly made.

Abdullah, there’s a quiet, grounded tenderness here…family, routine, small gestures that say more than words. That image of the paratha anchors it, and everything around it builds into something deeply human. It feels lived, not written. Well done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A window into another culture and lifestyle to mine with cross cultural elements (LA??). Stimulates my imagination for the relationships underlying it all. Thanks.

This rings true with so many things, a mothers care for her child, a child\'s independence growing and the conflict between the two. Very nicely written in poetic form

Entropy always has the last play and where will we get the energy to reconstruct. Nicely written in great metaphor

Very good metaphor. It leaves a classic image of the world as a tower or building being destroyed by mankind. I don\'t think we\'ll all laugh at the end. - Phil A.
