You have to be old to appreciate this one Kurt and I do. A fun read that makes more sense the older you get. A fave my friend

Off The Kool-Aid
Tristan Robert Lange said:

What a timely piece, Kurt. Casting a ballot does not mean handing over one’s conscience, identity, or capacity for judgment. Stepping beyond political noise to consider the larger moral picture is something desperately needed today. Excellent write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

The bigger picture seldom seen on details we bicker. It is the big picture that counts. Nicely said Kurt

Hollow Depiction
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, the closing carries a devastating loneliness. The feeling exists, but never reaches another person in a form they can fully receive. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Bartering Truth
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Wow, Kurt...this is concise, philosophical, and loaded with tension. The idea that lies can come from radically different motives, yet still require some reckoning with truth, really lands. Powerful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Cogency again, thanks.

Hiding In Plain Sight (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, this really hit me. There’s something powerful in the idea that truth does not need to announce itself loudly...its consequences reveal it soon enough. Strong and veritable piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Veracity Waits
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Wow, Kurt…this is sharp and timely. There’s something deeply frustrating about watching reality get forced through competing ideologies until almost nobody is interested in what actually holds up anymore. That search for something beyond the camps really resonates with me. Excellent piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Wisdom from you as usual, TR. Thanks

Unsentenced
Tristan Robert Lange said:

few lines. Being imprisoned is one thing…being imprisoned without even having a sentence gives that isolation another level entirely. This one stays with me, Kurt. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

History Will Treasure
Tristan Robert Lange said:

That contrast between a smaller audience and a sharper point really caught me, Kurt…reach and significance are hardly the same thing. Sometimes narrowing the room clarifies exactly what needs to be said. Excellent piece, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Heartwarming words again. Thanks TR.

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Kurt, what a powerful piece. This has that philosophical bite I always enjoy in your work…especially the movement from perception toward conscience and what ultimately survives us. Excellent write, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

My Only Advice To A Writer
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Damn right, Kurt! 😂 Beauty and craft absolutely matter, but neither substitutes for meaning. I want to finish a poem having encountered something...an idea, an emotion, a question, a perspective I didn’t possess quite the same way before. Say something indeed, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Both guilty and exonerated in the same breath. At certain moments there is that call to wax pretty, not often but distinct as well. 🤩🕊️🙏

My Only Advice To A Writer
lunarchloedip said:

yes!!!! make it something useful or worthwhile or genuine or from emotion or the act of trying to understand something or SOMETHING substantial rather than just something that sounds pretty.
