A painter\'s pallet of colors boldly run through this poem. It is vivid and bright most easy to see. The color alone gives it emotion and it shouts fave

There is mort to this than meets the eye. The image is clear, the tone is set, this poem with its image and tone is the letter coming to that mailbox. Its message of death so close. Noon, mid day to be taken with only half half of it left. This poem leaves mixed feelings. Very nicely done

I love the potential implicated meanings in this write. Out of absurdity comes the rational and wisdom from the mouth of fools. It is in contradiction that parallels can be seen. Nicely done

A deep metaphor where a crime was committed and time is erasing the evidence well written

the tao
sorenbarrett said:
It is in absence that everything resides. White is the absence of color and in the color of light it contains all colors, in circles is perfection the never ending, And on it goes line by line until the end where the empty chair displays that in the emptiness all things reside it is the space within the vessel that contains its utility. Nicely written

A most mind provoking poem that is enigmatic and a puzzle. Well done.

Cognition

Oh I like this one very much...very much indeed. The pairing of window with bottle is ingenious and the metaphoric implications are multiple. Every once in a while someone writes something that you wish you had written yourself and this is one. This is a definite fave

What the text is thinking.

An interesting poem that leaves the question how well do we know anyone and even how well do we know ourselves. It is haunting

The goat and I, a fable.
sorenbarrett said:
There is something charming and magnetic about the eccentricity in this poem. It holds a jewel of greater importance in its message. In being who one is there is purpose and meaning. All will not understand or even like you but that itself is of little meaning. Meaning takes all forms, different at different times. Lovely and a fave

A very thoughtful write. Vivid imagination is an understatement surreal but behind it all I see Salvador biding his time watching the watch as the hours go by. Very nicely written.

History professors really should be eaten by sharks.
Just in the interests of science, mind you.

Society and Mindfulness
sorenbarrett said:
All is a matter of perception and what we have grown accustomed to over the years. Shape is one dimension what if the sounds of these items were reversed or their size or longevity. A great write

Every moment follows something. A most interesting write that seems at first experiential then tangential and finally philosophical. Well done

That is the kind of atmosphere that lifts with such little effort the dullness that a day can bring. Most thoroughly enjoyed, V 🕊️🙏

Wonderful it is so homely yet at the same time metaphoric it works and in the mind cooks.

our traveling love affair

This poem seems surreal in its form and style. It is most interesting in some of the terms (human cannon ball) and it speaks more to the mind. Well worded
