Rewritten history
illia said:

Thank you. It only takes a few lines and the world goes chaotic, all because mass indoctrination is totally invisible and flies under what social media uses as its platform. Genius if it wasn\'t so dismissal don\'t you think?

Rewritten history
Doggerel Dave said:

And what passes for truth not worth a candle after that (your poem)
Here are my takes on History, for what they are worth:

(Deep history is a concept very few here seem to understand. Not what is happening in the here and now, but how the conflict occurred, from way back.)

Regards, Dave

Rewritten history
L. B. Mek said:

great write! thanks for sharing
please forgive me
for attempting a scribbled poetic reply below
I couldn\'t resist:
(Victors, inking insidiously hollow futures
where aftermath bequeaths, consequence
and mantra, regresses empathy \'s influence
so new-born\'s, learn to tighten their fist\'s
before, they open their eyes
then cry out loud, screaming at the fallacy
of walls and roof\'s, an explosion
removed
from becoming hell on earth, bricks
of empire ruins...
yet, parent\'s smile upon a miracle
as representative of all the hope
they surrendered when entering
adulthood\'s, scam of subservience
fitting-in, in a society, anchored
upon drug and alcohol, concussed
mirage, interpretations
of reality\'s inevitability of cyclical
strife;
while older generations, stare up
at that indifferent universe
and wonder, to what end?
is there really, no better way
if, this be by design
and if
by chaotic chance alone, why
must the dice, land
on one\'s
time n again, when
can we get a win
that\'s not a forsaken precursor
to our ensuing demise?
please, anyone - anything
just answer me this...!?)

Absolute beginner
illia said:

Thanks for your comment. It\'s more not the fool rather being believed as such. The masks and many faces. Beginning to end, these tools will be used, Being absolute in one\'s convictions no matter how one\'s perceived by others, who could possibly be the fools.

GON said:

lovely rhymes. speaking as someone who loves to learn new things, i\'ll say it sometimes takes being an absolute fool to do so. well conveyed.

Rest in peace
L. B. Mek said:

wonderfully conceptualised
and then written, so well
if someone
wanted to base their philosophy
on life, based on these words
I wouldn\'t be surprised
clearly, your poetic Genius
swims, at that deep end
of yearning, for existence\'s
meaning...
thanks for sharing, dear poet

illia said:

Much appreciated. My words are my way of expressing the way life is, every part of life including the inevitable, death is beautiful chapter that needs beautiful words to discribe the different emotions it creates when we are touched by it,

Brave and Free?
L. B. Mek said:

\'Broken are the brave
Pilgrims lust of bloodied slaves
Make way for falsehoods
Many braves ahead they stood
Myths and legends history told
Pilgrims voyage where lies unfold\'..
so much depth, and penned with effortless weaved fluidity
really well written, thanks for sharing

If\'s, But\'s and maybe\'s
L. B. Mek said:

reminds me of an old song
by the talented Beverly Knight
titled \'shoulda woulda coulda\'
and its chorus goes:
\'Now \" Shoulda woulda coulda, \" means I\'m out of time
\'Cause \"Shoulda woulda coulda\", can\'t change your mind
And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I\'m gonna do
\"Shoulda woulda coulda\" are the last words of a fool\'...
(thank you, for choosing to share
such an intriguing read)

I believe in embracing the person, but not their sin, and I don\'t always embrace their ideas.
Jesus is love.
He is true.
Persistence is key
