THE BADASS YODELER
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, this is fucking hilarious! I love a tall tale that commits completely to its own ridiculous logic, and this plays like an old Western directed by Mel Brooks. The narrator treating such absurdly specialized knowledge as another hard-earned life lesson makes the ending absolutely perfect. Tremendously fun write, my friend! 😂🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

TORCHLIGHT SKIERS
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, this is absolutely magical! The anticipation builds beautifully, then erupts into a celebration that feels both ancient and wonderfully communal. Terrific poem, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

TRAPPER DAN\'S MAMMOUTH
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, what one heck of an adventure! This has danger, folklore, humor, and the irresistible madness of a man pursuing riches despite every warning offered. Thoroughly enjoyed this, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

RIVER-DRIVER BLUES
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, what one heck of a folk ballad! The wit keeps it lively, but there is real sorrow beneath it...especially when a dangerous, hard-earned vocation survives only as fashion and entertainment. Funny, rugged, and deeply human. Excellent work, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

NO SAFE SPACES
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, what a brutally powerful piece. The recurring warning grows heavier with every return...from adulthood and employment to society and existence itself. I may still insist upon creating whatever refuge I can, but I certainly recognize the unforgiving reality you confront here. Excellent write, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

HUMAN NATURE DOESN\'T CHANGE (I-IV)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
One hell of an ambitious and provocative piece, David! The extended structure gives your argument considerable force, and I understand exactly where its cynicism comes from. I found myself resisting some of its broader assumptions, especially where complex human behavior becomes fixed categories…but poetry that creates genuine disagreement also creates genuine engagement. You certainly accomplished that here, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

CAMPFIRE, CAMPFIRE
Tristan Robert Lange said:
David, what a wonderful poem! This captures everything I love about camping...the laughter, the stories, the quiet reflection, and that unmistakable feeling of being fully alive outdoors. Beautifully done, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

COWBOYS ARE HEROES
sorenbarrett said:
A powerful message sent in this poem of a culture that has been dumbed down by politics and the politically correct. Where justice takes second seat to protocol. The free spirit is seen as a thorn in society\'s side. Modern cowboys take the form of vigilantes frowned on by the law and applauded in the theater as batman, V, a Jason Bourn or Equalizer, or John Wick. All for entertainment but not for real life where one must wait in line and stand by while someone is shot or rapped so as not to be accused of stepping out of line. A wonderful write with good rhyme and near rhyme and good meter it sends its message powerfully

AN OUTSIDER WITH PRIDE
sorenbarrett said:
Compliance, cooperation and unity are the answer to an overpopulated world where sacrifice of the self for the good of the whole is the ultimate mandate. Loss of individual identity is a logical consequence and independence is the greatest threat. True communism becomes the goal. A great write
