Behind The Fuse Box

Ah Kurt you struck a nerve and short circuited me. In reading this I remembered doing some wiring in the old house I was remodeling and the rat nest of wires in the ceiling that were red, black, white, green and yellow. I knew that the red was supposed to be hot but so too could be the white the green was supposed to be ground but with such a nest I was unsure of anything. A good read my friend and Happy New Year to you

Memories Lure
sorenbarrett said:
Heroes forgotten, lost in the cracks of history, hidden in the shadows of memory. Those that we idolize today soon fade from view. Sad but true. Well done Kurt

Beyond The Badge
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kurt, this is memory distilled. The old western becomes backdrop to something quieter and more enduring…connection, lineage, and the reshaping of ideals. You let the moment speak without embellishment. Beautiful work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Remember those days Kurt. All black and white in those days now everything is colored, different shades of gray. I read too much into this I suppose

Shadow\'s Defining

Kurt, this feels hushed and unavoidable. It moves like a visitation…quiet, precise, and heavy with what refuses rest. The restraint gives it power. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The Torch Passed
sorenbarrett said:
The passing down of anything is something to be treasured and I have often thought that the passing down extends to those genes that can not be stolen or taken by the unworthy. I hear that here is where the ancestral pen is passed down not just in the paper and pen itself or left documents and writings. Very nice Kurt

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kurt, this is a quiet meditation on legacy done right. You let lineage speak through action and transmission rather than grandeur. The poem feels less about power and more about stewardship, and that choice makes it linger. Strong work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Reading this makes me think about how easily rhetoric spreads and how hard it is to stop once it’s loose. I connect with that sense of helplessness when harm keeps multiplying long after intention is gone. It’s unsettling in a necessary way. Well done! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Great job, Kurt. What really lands is the contrast between surface and core. You keep pressing on how polish can become camouflage, and the poem never lets the reader hide behind craft alone. Very well done! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

My Horse Lying Dead (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kurt, this is haunting and reflective. You let history, dream, and aftermath bleed into one another, and the result feels honest rather than theatrical. It lingers because it doesn’t try to resolve anything. Strong work. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kurt, this carries a calm authority. It feels reflective without drifting into abstraction, like someone thinking aloud and landing on truth through patience. There’s a steadiness here that really works. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

The past cast in cement unchangeable the future nebulous, unknown and so malleable (unless you believe in destiny) I love this poem and so well written Kurt a fave

Kurt, this resonates with how reflection can feel binding while anticipation feels open but unstable. That contrast between certainty and freedom rings true to lived experience. Well done! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
