Beautifully written, Kurt. During this pandemic our lives do feel as if we are caged.

Truly truly profound. Mesa Verde is one of the most meaningful writes I\'ve encountered.

\'As heat restores the human soul,

With hope to melt the frozen dawn\'
transcendentally worded, like how you can so easily switch styles to match what sentiment you\'re attempting to depict,
a wonderful read and a showcase for your versatility, what a talent you choose to share with us,
thank you!

The night can do that, but it can also do the opposite. Well said, Kurt.
BTW what is \'The New Room\'?

Farewell To Arms (+1)
L. B. Mek said:

A Brilliant Write!
but sadly, there will never be a \'farewell to arms\', for you see
defence budget\'s are agreed upon, before
any election hopeful dares put their name in the \'ring\',
while all the time, great men of courage
who sadly: trust in nothing but \'might\', insure
there\'s always a new threat \'visible\' in democracy\'s ever-foggy \'horizon\'...

Kurt, your first poem made me think deeply. Indeed, where do they go? We expect them to rejoin civilian life as if nothing happened. Your poems are extraordinary!

Farewell To Arms (+1)
Doggerel Dave said:

Great question - those first two lines. Homelessness, PTSD, high suicide rates, scandals. Picture not good.
Plus, well said Jerry.

\'A new Resurrection
they’re about to ensure

Through hatred and envy..\'

utilising systemic divisive strategies
that has society - fractioning
with each new surge
of identity politics, where
me, myself and I
count first - learnt, by following
capitalisms stranglehold
on democracy\'s warped fragility
ripe, for those with greed
as their most fervent need
to evermore dominate
and pitifully, knowingly decimate...

thanks for inspiring my little chorus of reply, to your insightful and ever accurate commentary of society\'s many plagues my friend,
a great write, once again!

This may not be a \'poetic\' response, Kurt, but I do have these \'epiphanous\' moments every once in a while, then they evaporate as soon as I put pen to paper!

... to be realised,
really liked this one my friend,
I think that word was hijacked by theological zealot\'s, unfairly
it can add such depth of meaningful flavour, if simply versed as a metaphor to self-discovery
