Very interesting. I have always strangely thought that life is a process of pain and that the difference is that some experience it sharply and strongly while others feel it less. A good write

Kurt, I’ve known people like Eddie…not the same path, but that same kind of presence…where suffering doesn’t define them, but it’s always there with them. Reading this brought me into that space again. Thank you for sharing him with us. What an incredibly beautiful way to honor Eddie. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Read But Once ...

Kurt, I love this…there’s something really smooth about how it flows. It feels natural, like the words already knew where they were going. That idea of writing as song really comes through. Beautiful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Lingering Thoughts (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kurt, these carry a steady flow of thought from one piece to the next…each one holding its own space while still circling something deeper underneath. And that turn toward the end…sharper, more direct…lands because of the ground you built before it. It feels intentional and lived in. Strong, grounded work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kurt, this feels grounded from start to finish…each section holding its own space while still belonging to something larger. There’s a steady rhythm to the way it unfolds…thought by thought, no rush, just clarity building. It pulled me in and held me there. Powerful write. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kurt, this really lands as a whole…each section shifting tone but keeping that edge throughout. That line about not being married anymore cuts deep, and it anchors everything around it. Powerful writes, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kurt, this hit me…that shift from play to what’s coming is brutal in the quietest way. Powerful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A tragic poem of death due to war and its senselessness. Kurt my father was a navigator in WWII telling them where to drop bombs in Germany and I asked him later how he felt dropping bombs on people and he said war is hell and you do what you got to do. I guess this is so but why not do what you got to do to not get in the war to begin with. Heart rending my friend.

Kurt, there’s a throughline here of clarity and conviction…short forms, sharp turns, nothing wasted. That dark raven image anchors the collection (not that I\'m biased 😏), and everything else branches out from that same direct voice. It’s consistent, it’s intentional, and it hits. Well done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A Father\'s Goodbye (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Kurt, there’s a quiet weight all through this…love stated so clearly at the start, and then that slow drift into distance and being an inconvenience. That word lands hard. And the way you close on “— on the ledge”…it feels like everything left unsaid just hanging there. Strong piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Kurt, that image of the violin wrapped in thunder is excellet… it brings everything together in one striking moment. Sound, storm, and presence all fused into something alive. Beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
