Fated Vision
L. B. Mek said:

so acutely, Brilliant!
(to survive, somewhat sane
we must surrender, control
and let our choices, curate
that blank canvas of fate
upon its pages
of pre-outlined, destinies...)

Respite, retreat from the encumbrances of life. Sometimes we just need a little R & R. Love the way you have phrased this!

And They Leave Us Alone...
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
dear Poet
forgive me, i couldn\'t help
but try and scribble a little
poetic reply..
(Praying Mantis
in words and deeds, but
each of them swears, they
were born as angels
which unveils the question
is it their life\'s
tall green, horizons
that curates magnetic attraction, in-to
retrospective beginnings, to devastation..
funny
through it all, victims
seem to simply, be grateful
for the relief, like
surrendering to that inevitability
of cyclicality\'s, addictively vicious
cruelty..)

Alone In The Wilderness
L. B. Mek said:

(yet again, your words
have helped to inspire me
to ink words, that surpass
my feeble levels..
thank you! dear Poet)
\'the only problem with theology
was in its insistence
that for one to be true, the other
must be false, hence
all that war and hate..
modernity, now free
of theology\'s chains
Chooses, to assign those same
divisively tragic, mindsets
to politics
to polarising identity extremism
to warped activism
and on...
makes you think
if cyclical
be humanity\'s patterns of self-devastation
and so blatantly obvious to even
fools like me
why do, those that curate
the status quo
choose, to maintain such
destructive elements
at the core foundations
of our societal make-up
surely
it can\'t be, as basic and archaic
as that whole
\'divide and conquer
segregate to subjugate\'
methods of tyrannical, rule
right...
right?
yeah, Right!

Alone In The Wilderness
Bella Shepard said:

When we lose the ability to share, to work together, we lose the fundamental framework of what makes us successful as a species. I love the way you have expressed this in your poem, so thought provoking.
