Is what we see reality or just our desired view. A most interesting poem. Well done

I loved the line (Perfect purity is emptiness.) This is a deep philosophical statement. A very nicely written piece

Yes, we all go through the motions now, politeness personified, the revolutionary in us all has been confiscated.

Some dark images cast in this poem of rotten roots, lungs eaten away, poison. There is a slight hope given in the word bloom. A rather stark poem leaving a shadow of hope.

my right to melancholy

There is comfort for some in sadness just as there is in silence. This poem speaks of mourning and its process. A melancholic feel to this poem. Very nicely written

Not a lot has changed since year dot.
I\'m always amazed when dumb old guys have an argument and millions of common people die over it.
I\'m waiting for the time when the common people utter the words. \'\'Not my war gov.\'\'

Quite a critique of the system we live in. The evils of capitalism exposed in poetic form. A lovely write.

My nation of Prozac

Truly existential this poem proclaims the search for self and identity where external anchors are eroded and all that is left is the internal. Nicely done.

One of most unpretentious howl in the vaccum- lament for the unfulfilled dreams, an existential dread about the where she is going. A definite and emphatic fave.
The most striking feature was the refusal of melodrama and steady restraint. I used to be a fan of Kafka, Conrad, Lawrence- somehow the poem reminded me of their restraints after nearly four decades. 🙏
