The Long Days Journey into Bed
Thomas W Case said:
This carries the weight of a weary observer watching the world spin louder than it should, and still finding rhythm in the telling.
There’s a rough, honest pulse in it—like frustration turned into something strangely lyrical and steady.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kevin, this carries a real weight…that endless cycle of noise, conflict, and promises that don’t hold. The way it builds and then settles into that quiet longing at the end…yeah, that stays. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kevin, this is a fun one… you move through the forms with real energy and personality. It feels like a celebration of how many ways poetry can breathe. Ooh and neat thought...all of those forms in one poem sounds like fun, probably frustrating, and worthy challenge. Are you going to? Regardless, really enjoyed this, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Treading Water

Which two minds were in fact involved in this creation? jointly they seem to have got themselves sorted nicely. Dunno which was responsible for the rhyme, but it works well. The overall management seems to have provided a simple truth.
BTW, a response by me to this question is simply \"Getting There\" and to date no one has wished to know the identity or address of \'there\'...

Like to pop it up again in about September - October for the antipodeans amongst us?

Dryly satirical and slightly apocalyptic—you compress environmental frustration into a tight, punchy image set.
The grit is in that blunt final warning: engineered progress and waste colliding, with consequences left looming just offshore.

Kevin, this hit me hard…there’s a sharp edge to it that doesn’t try to soften the warning. It reads like frustration that’s been building for a while, and it lands clean. Straight to the point. Powerful write. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Thomas W Case said:
Gentle and vivid—this builds a warm, pastoral dream with real sensory care, then quietly collapses it into absence.
The grit is in that final turn: beauty imagined fully, then revealed as loneliness still sitting in the room.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kevin, there’s something beautifully deceptive in this…you build this peaceful, lived-in world so naturally, detail by detail, that it feels settled and true…then that final turn pulls the ground out completely. It lingers in a quiet way that doesn’t let go. Powerful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Great picture you paint there, Kevin. I almost felt I was in your place. But I hopped out fast when I hit the last line. It reminded me of several times in my past, and I definitely did not want to go back there. Happy where I am now. Where that last line situates you should be the motivation to rear up and do something about it - good luck and best wishes.

This poem is most charming in its wording and rhyme it evokes a fanciful feeling so lovely. It is light and almost fairytale like and I can hear it as a song. It is musical in nature and a definite fave
