For the People still call for Barabbas

A interesting piece that makes you have a proper think, i am a non believer and i have always wanted peace over war, yet there are more than enough believers in life who do want war, so maybe it is not about if you believe or not. Enjoyed the read

This Poem is Ten-Years long
arqios said:
This poem speaks to the idea that every word written is a continuation of a legacy, a piece of a larger tapestry that spans years and lifetimes. It also brings with it a sense of reverence and gratitude towards poetry, acknowledging its role in giving life and meaning to the writer\'s words.I especially love the notion that \"Your blood so flows within the pen,\" which vividly illustrates the deep connection between the poet and their craft. The concluding sentiment, that the poem is \"Ten-Years long,\" elegantly emphasizes the enduring impact and lasting tribute of the poet\'s work. Thus itβs such a beautiful reflection on the power of words and the timeless nature of poetic expression. ππ»ππ»π

Oh but how great that these walks donβt require a physical password! Great stuff here. Not much here for walking where Iβm at. But your delightful poem brought me back. ππ»πππ»

Nicely done. A fine write. This reminded me of Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas, and also a little of the Beatles song Penny Lane.

When we get to know people thatβs when the real world opens up, the essence of a neighborhood teeming with hidden lives and secrets, revealing the multifaceted nature of its residents. Just beautiful! ππ»πππ»

Behind closed doors, such an interesting poem. We really donβt know much about people at all. Once that door is shut, who knows what occurs. Much enjoyed Kevin. My mind drifted with this poem.

Ah, quite the late bloomer. Have a few of those in the back burner. But this one speaks of a year that wasnβt that bad, all things being considered. Certainly much better than the Covid years, at least in my opinion. ππ»ππ»π

I smiled when you mentioned Miss Joan Hunter Dunn, Kevin. I have read many Betjamin poems and remember her. This is a lovely tribute to the Post Office Girl. We have one who is incredibly efficient. A fine love poem. That final line spoke volumes. Have a good Sunday.

This brings to me a melancholic reality of yearning for a specific connection while feeling disillusioned with the mundane aspects of life. It could quite resonate with anyone who has experienced the bittersweet longing for a lost or distant love. Thanks for sharing, Kevin ππ»ππ»π

Lovely, Kevin. You paint the picture so well. A fine write. It reminded me of the Kinks, the way they used to hark back to a bygone era.

Mister Lattimer Explained
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Ah...a portrait of a gentleman who seems to, at this point, belong to a bygone era. In fact, I am not sure if it is that the gentleman is gone...or the era is gone...or both. I am supposing both, but there are always exceptions to the rule in terms of there being gentlemen; as for eras...well they they tend to be be very cyclical. I mean, who ever thought the 80s and cassette tapes would be things again? π€£ Kevin, this poemβs gentle humor and nostalgia invites one (or at least it invited me) to reflect on the value of tradition in a rapidly and, sometimes, thoughtlessly changing world. Well done, my friend! πΉπ
