Raised by Mannequin
Rocky Lagou said:

Oooof this is great! I love a good persona poem and this perspective from which you write from is very eye opening. “Silent saints of scarcity.” Ah! I love me a good alliterative line.

Raised by Mannequin
sorenbarrett said:

This is creative and individualistic in nature a great metaphor of consumerism painted in a mannequin and of capitalism in a store window and shopping cart. Lovely

Oranges
sorenbarrett said:

A poem of metaphor where oranges and lemons are the fruits of the garden and the seeds sprout. Well done

Clock
sorenbarrett said:

A great metaphor in this poem. Are we not like the clock. A fun read full of great images as well it ticks its way along and winds down and I was expecting it to say (apart) rather than part at the end.

Clout
sorenbarrett said:

Such social commentary in vivid metaphor that uncovers civility\'s darker nature and false front. So well imaged and with great rhyme and flow. It mirrors the veneer of society and what lays beneath.

Decorated Mule
sorenbarrett said:

For those in power ignorance of the masses is in their best interest. A lovely write of a dystopia not far from where we are.

Tabled, as always
sorenbarrett said:

The old saying (opinions are like assholes everybody has one) but actually they are more like fingerprints with everyone\'s being different. There are no right ones or wrong just different and everyone thinks that theirs is sacred. Wars are started that way. A good write

Yet to
sorenbarrett said:

A poem that speaks of women as a commodity to be looked at, coveted, lusted after, bought and sold. Well written

Twirl of Genocide
sorenbarrett said:

It has always been interesting to me how some cultural customs are viewed differently by other cultures and change over the years. Western cultural customs may be viewed as just as cruel by outsiders but go unnoticed within the culture. We judge and those that have power enforce. A good read

Heartquake
sorenbarrett said:

A blend of a narrative poem and a message as well. Nicely crafted and well worded with great metaphor and splendid images it speaks to me and a fave

Lines of Hope

This fun story told in a child like manner is a message in and of itself and with fun rhyme it gets a fave

Sodium Sky
sorenbarrett said:

Here a menace that we have created now a threat. I think of Hitchcock\'s The Birds and at another layer Mary Shelly\'s Frankenstein. In feeding them we foster their growth, concentrated in cities where they can not be shot and protected by animal rights groups they thrive to the detriment of the ecosystem and us. A fave

Dry Ice
sorenbarrett said:

This poem is a modern art work of piecing words and alliteration about a drug that is mind altering as well. Well done

Anatomy of Peace
sorenbarrett said:

Strong words pull at weak accords. Powerful lines for tenuous promises. To stop a man from fighting is like telling him to stop breathing his selfishness prevails. A lovely write

Like a Number
Fína Elara 🌙 Petra Patrice said:

The poem leaves a lingering sense of sorrow, blending innocence and mortality, forcing the reader to confront both the fragility and uniqueness of life. Nicely written.

Like a Number
sorenbarrett said:

This seems to me a poem of refugees, war victims, a hard read but well done a fave

Rules are made of Rubber
sorenbarrett said:

I love this poem that feels on the surface like a poem for children but just below the surface lurks a cynical commentary on the justice system and how people legally get around the system. The intent of the law means nothing it is the letter of the law that is enforced. A lovely write and a fave

September 16th, 2025 04:38

Brunch of Beasts
sorenbarrett said:

Sounds like a politicians brunch to me. Really great images with what appears to be incongruous combinations that in fact make great sense as metaphors for a world crazier than Alice\'s Wonderland. Nicely done a fave

Tracing Outlines
Fína Elara 🌙 Petra Patrice said:

‘I used to believe in conversations,
Now I just nod my head
and surrender to the script.‘ This is powerful ‘I use to believe’ the repetition makes it engaging. Nice work.
Believe. Nicely written.

Tracing Outlines
sorenbarrett said:

Quite the lines in this poem of self doubt and questions. A poem of darkness of thought. Well done
