The Price of Being
Doggerel Dave said:
As someone recently hospitalised for a month, far too much of that felt eerily familiar.
Congrats to Phillip Larkin and, of course the current author. LOL

The Price of Being

There is a cost to being alive. Every life stage in progression has hammered that nail in deeper and deeper. Medical spaces are our bookends that frame a melee of the mundane and fragile. πποΈ

Memorandum
Thomas W Case said:
A battle cry wrapped in a love poem, throwing a fist at the darkness and choosing life anyway.
The world may be absurd, but these lines refuse to leave without lighting a fire.

Wow, Kevin...what a fierce declaration! Against death, meaninglessness, routine, and hatred, you raise love as the one rebellion worthy of our brief existence. This is passionate, defiant, and deeply moving. Excellent poem, my friend! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

And because death is inevitable and the world often absurd, the only meaningful, defiant, human response is to love wildly, intensely, and without restraint while we still can. πποΈ

Manβs hiding in books like a bunker, but you canβt blame himβthe world outsideβs loud and mean.
Still, thereβs a whisper here: even Elysium can turn into a place you go to not come back.

What a fantastic piece, Kevin! The world outside is consumed by ego, conflict, and spectacle while poetry offers wisdom, beauty, companionship, and peace. As both poet and reader, this resonated deeply with me. Wonderful write, my friend! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Kevin, you got me with this one. The title may clue us in a bit, but the buildup still lands...I had to chuckle when the chatbot answered the call instead of a spirit. Clever, playful write, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Are you adding to the fears that AI will take over and humans will be relegated to the ether in exchange (lets see how long it takes for our species to stuff that up) while the bots live harmoniously here...?
Thanks for the warning...!

I enjoy your humor, but I don\'t like AI. I am still windows ten. Your statement revolves around the intersection of technology and the supernatural, specifically exploring the idea of artificial intelligence as a form of communication with the unknown.

Kevin, this is a fun read. The humor stays light, but the frustration is instantly relatable...especially for anyone who\'s ever checked the clock halfway through a movie and realized there was still forever to go. Nicely played, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

A true measure of how good the movie is. Even a short movie if bad seems to last forever while a great movie can be three hours and it seems short.

Thereβs a playful old-ballad feel here, mixing admiration, foolish courage, and a sharp twist of consequence.
The ending lands like a tavern tale told with a grinβthe kind where vanity meets reality in the funniest way.

This hits just right for any man married to a beautiful woman. If you want to be happy all of your life marry an ugly wife.

Kevin, what a fun poem. The vivid admiration pulls you right in, then Dave completely changes the story. π \"One Cast in Plaster within Ward 5\" was the perfect punchline. Had me laughing by the finish. Great job, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬
