generalization
sorenbarrett said:

A great poem of how humans group and categorize to try to understand. I understand the process but don\'t like it. I refuse to diagnose for it is a statistical prejudice that lumps people, individuals into categories that they do not belong in. Well done

sorenbarrett said:

Looking in reverse death does give a reason to life in a backward way. Well done

The explanation of the author\'s note gave this piece a whole new meaning and turns surreal into graphic reality. Well done

Distorted
sorenbarrett said:

This poem speaks of a specific disorder but may be taken as a metaphor for all in that our perceptions are distortions of reality that we never see clearly. To notice is a revelation. Well written and a fave

What the Children See
Cheeky Missy said:

This frankly is rendered from a far more mature and educated perspective than children per se possess. Interesting and childish, despite the assessment, this juxtaposition is rather comical. Hang in there. It doesn\'t get better but you might just figure out how to convince yourself it does. Thank you for sharing.

Evervast Void

We share a similar feel to the two of our day\'s writings. With all the chaos, it truly feels like we\'ve been deployed.

Evervast Void
Fränz Müller said:

It’s not all gloom and doom, but a lot of life is, though. It’s those occasional sparks and streaks of light we need to cling to when the sadness creeps in. Hang in there!

Evervast Void
sorenbarrett said:

A dark poem indeed with feelings of pessimism. Nicely written and prompts the feeling that it only gets darkest before the dawn. Nicely written

A Work of Art
Fränz Müller said:

Our bodies are works of art, suitable for display, though most people would prefer such art never see the light of day.

A Work of Art
sorenbarrett said:

Be the cuts or tattoos self inflicted they find little social acceptance. Disfigurement in some societies is well accepted and encouraged be it scarification or tattoos and piercings. Never the less most of this is not self inflicted but done by a professional. I hear the meaning in this poem and it is sad for much of this self art is out of pain. Well written

The Screens of Screams
sorenbarrett said:

Advanced beyond years in insight and writing skill this poem represents a reflection on a technological entrapment of a generation and the creation of an existential crisis. Keep writing like this and you will be a great poet.

Without Words

This holds a dark view and expectations for a general worsening of things. Well written

Another World
sorenbarrett said:

A wonderful poem with a great surprise ending. When I was a child I too was bullied by one particular guy. It lasted years and finally I fought him and even though I lost, after that we were good friends.

Items of Skin
sorenbarrett said:

This has layers and at the bottom level is the physical and there I must agree one should not get cut, there is the emotional and there too one should not be cut, the mental then the social all areas where being cut is not a good thing. Nicely written
