Lysis, I believe there is always a light at the end of a tunnel. Your poem provides that light. Thank you for dedicating your poem to those who need that flashlight to help them surface beyond their lunacy. ~ Sonia

THANKS LYSIS - for another very enigmatic poem and thanks for your comment which "almost" explains it. I love th nuances in your beautifully structured poem. I "almost" met the Love of my Life on a London Tube Escalator ! Alas she was in the ascendancy and as usual I was descending. Thanks for sharing - lovely ! Yours BRIAN

THANKS FOR SHARING LYSIS - There is only a thin line between LUNACY and NORMALITY and it is easily crossed over ! For me (whom some consider mad !) reading poetry is always CATHARTIC - writing it even more so. I guess this is why I love this interactive site ! Thanks for caring - Yours BRIAN

I had an espresso gelato and then ice lemon tea,because it is too hot here....
And realized that my literary mentor,Elizabeth Bishop,has written "Insomnia". It is 10.000 times better.
Damn,I should have read it first. But how much could a single mind achieve during a lifetime?!

Remembering the Island of Treason
Berthold Lippel said:

I never thought to memorize waves
but of course
A good poem: yes, I have felt like that.
A great poem:yes, I have never felt like that.
Lysistrata writes great poems

Remembering the Island of Treason
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks for sharing LYSIS - haunting poem and a trip into Greek Mythology' Poseidon (God if the Sea) Odysseus (King of Ithaca) and his beautiful (yet faithful) wife Penelope. Oh yes I remember it all so well ! Thanks for sharing and stirring (the grey matter !). Well structured poem. Yours BRIAN

I love it. I sang reciting it. But I am confused. How much is yours or how much the original song? Bert is easily confused...

Mummy\'s dirty secret
Berthold Lippel said:

Another musical poem. I recite it and sing a melody, and laugh. I do not see it as pregnancy--more the work of reducing ungood reality to the comfort of kindergarten---lalala...Love your poems. Make me sing some more!

Mummy\'s dirty secret
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Oooooooooh LYSIS - the dreaded Morning Sickness another little unpleasantry we mere Men don't have to endure ! We all want to be Daddies someday but we forget about period pains - pregnancy - puking and production. We just put the order in and hope the nine months passes quickly and as painless as possible. They say if Men had babies no family would have more than one child ! Thanks for caring & sharing - BRIAN
