There is a great deal of angst in this poem, feelings of fear and trembling. Raw and timorous it shakes and quivers looking for shelter.

Is it gild overlaying the vulnerable or is it true gold uncovered remains the question. A wonderful metaphor. Nicely done

To start anew. I like the image of opening a casket and breaking ground - kinda like a seed sprouting.

Bravely creative this poem is a style I have never seen before it seems avant guard in a surreal way it has nuances of Lewis Carrol mixed with Salvador Dali and a bit of Picasso thrown in. It is a Pollock rolled out into a Renoir. I applauded your courage and creativity

There was a time when I was in to numerology and it seems that this poem contains a great deal of this. Nicely written with counted meter which I have not taken the time to see if it has corresponding meaning.

A great write vacillating rom the insane to the sane when the difference is nothing more than being in agreement with the majority of others. Well done

Otiosity
sorenbarrett said:

An existential poem where the narrator feels split and with two opposing sides a critic, an underminer there is little room for compromise. Nicely written

A cry in the dark, savage and primal it screams in pain. Well written with a sense of disarray spreading itself across the page as a child spreads juice on the table. Lovely

This is a raw howl against the machine—rage, beauty, and exhaustion tangled together without flinching.
It’s messy on purpose, and that sprawl feels honest, like someone refusing to go quietly while the system tightens its grip.
