Did not see the second one on my phone. It is beautiful and so much wisdom! Unfortunately, I think, both fear and prejudice are handed down to the kids, sometimes maybe even unknowingly, by parents behavior and talk.

Read the title, was looking forward to read about skinny dipping. Should have known you would write about something much more beautiful and intellectual! :-)

There are very few poems that take away my words. This one did. I am blown away and all I can do is make it a favorite. I also printed it out to put on my wall so I can read it over and over again. Nuff said!

Can You / Will You (+1)

I just love your \'intellectual\' poems, Kurt, they make one think. On the first one I don\'t know if you want answers to your questions, or if you just want to make the reader ponder these questions.
\'Unbranded\' is such a clever play of words!

There seems to be no limit to your imagination and writing skills, Kurt, with \'prismatic light entering the land of ill intention\'!

This will rattle around in my head for a long time. Always amazed at the power and emotion you can write with. So grateful that I have you an example; is oh so many ways.
Do the lyrics that you sing

No.1: Beautiful writing, Kurt. I seems to me that you are leaving this one wide open to any reader\'s interpretation. Don\'t know why, but the first thing that came to my mind is divorce. Where once was only one stream, there are now two and the second stanza with its malcontent and twisted flow plays right into that thought. Or maybe I am just nuts! :-)
No.2: Makes one think about the human condition. Been there - done that! Just wasn\'t able to express it as elegantly as you did.

Powerful imagery and clear result of intention to allow light into harboured darkness - - this has to one of your best Kurt. Saved to my my favourites.

Kurt, I do like this poem, had to make it a favorite!
On a lighter note, it also reminded me quite a bit about sayings we have here in Hawaii:
- Slow down, this ain\'t the mainland
- Hang ten
- If can, can, if no can, no can
- Don\'t worry, be happy

As I have come to expect from you, Kurt, a beautifully written poem. And now I have it officially from an established writer that drinking and writing goes together perfectly. Was thinking of Charles Bukowski when writing this comment.

Funny, you write about the soul here, Kurt. This is a subject I am deeply interested in. I did write a few poems relating to soul, consciousness, etc. I just love the way you look at it in your poem. The soul and the \'matter\' for want of a better word, do go together.
Your writing is exquisite, usually way above the writing on this site. And you even got it to rhyme! Kudos!

I enjoyed this Kurt. Yes, truth does reject opinion that is a great insight
if everybody realized this their truths would become more apparent and their positions not so defiant. excent write...peace

Words of truth and written with poetic assurance the read becomes a learning curve Kurt - I admire the imagery used in the first line. First class piece of work.
