Fate\'s Niagara (+1)
sorenbarrett said:

A sense of being pulled helplessly in the the first poem and the knowledge that time will work out the truth in the end in the second. Very nicely put in poetic form Kurt

sorenbarrett said:

Just Three
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Reading this felt like sitting in that liminal space…between sleep and reckoning, between quiet and the light that comes too soon. You captured that tension powerfully, Kurt. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬› Well done. A fave.

I have been there many time Kurt those early awakenings with a blessed three hours till wake time. Those are some of the best hours. A wonderful read

To Sergei
sorenbarrett said:

Very nice Kurt yes in hunting that was a rule to hunt the hunter you must become him. This works as a metaphor as well and loved the word play on prey

Gravity\'s Mime
sorenbarrett said:

Love plays on words and this is a pile of inversions. Funny I was writing one today on language as well. Good one Kurt

Tropic Of Capricorn (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

It was the pairing of β€œkilling time without wounding eternity” that stopped me. Both poems carry that same tension...present beauty pressed against the void. Strong work. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Tropic Of Capricorn (+1)
sorenbarrett said:

Indeed so it seems that it is. A great use of word repetition in different senses. Well done Kurt

Mt. Zero-Sum (+1)
Tristan Robert Lange said:

That line β€œits summit has a thousand fathers, whose abyss awaits the orphan” really lingers. A chilling contrast that deepens the whole piece. Strong work. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦‡πŸ¦β€β¬›

Mt. Zero-Sum (+1)
sorenbarrett said:

Now this one made me think. The mountain had a cloud surrounding it and since it would not come to Mohamud he had to go to it. Nice one Kurt

A poem of doing what we are able and looking up to those that can do more. Lovely

Occam Says ...
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Occam\'s razor is sharpened on this whetting stone of a poem, my dear friend. Love it! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
