A Hobo\'s Last Prayer
jarcher54 said:

Very rich imagery, a little elusive, yet clear. I had to go back to the title. I enjoy how the title enriches the poem. I found myself wondering if the speaker would catch that last ride \"home.\"

Fantasia
L. B. Mek said:

hindsight often has the luxury of relaxed perspectives, that the turmoil of existence in the now -between one hurdle and the next bite of sustenance we must hunt - doesn\'t allow,
so naturally we are flawed creatures but that undeniable truth, of yearning to be the best we can be, has merit in its own right I think
so we must accept and appreciate ourselves, before others can do the same for us
engaging writing, asking necessary questions

It may well, be a false legacy but when my wife passed recently she became a bigger part of my memory.

The Quiet Roar
jarcher54 said:

Nicely done... you evoke many thoughts, emotions, sounds, and even possible plots-- who is down under, what do they cry, why is there thunder and that precise moment? In so few elegant words.

Thanks

The Veil
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Kurt,

ā€¢ ā€œThe Veilā€
Iā€™ve read this a few times. Each time I read it,
I try to imagine a
ā€˜truth wrapped in a lieā€™.

ā€˜the truth wrapped in a lieā€™
ā€” six powerful words.

Resonant Voices
Accidental Poet said:

Have to agree with Laura, sometimes our own self-conscience gets the better of us and we\'re lost as to how to proceed. Very interesting analogy Kurt.

Resonant Voices
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Kurt,

Yes, at times we are our own worst enemies! Must be aware of that inner villain and not let it get the best of us!

Glad to read your posting today!šŸ˜Š

Writers
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Kurt,

I always welcome the opportunity for
ā€œā€”new roads to be shownā€

So thank you
my dear writer for
ā€˜takingā€™ yours truly
onto the freeway
ā€˜where aloneā€™
I sometimes choose
not to ā€˜goā€™ !

This is very relatable and
very much to my liking.

Abandoned Tears (+1)
LaurašŸŒ» said:

Kurt,

Another ā€˜Dreamsleepā€™ gem!

Like rubbing salt in a wound...
No matter how much we cry,
No matter how much we give,
The pain is always there!

Kurt Philip Behm said:

Thanks and no \'with\' is correct. Not being able to sleep \'with\' fury and shame.

Sorry if this sounds picky but did you mean with(out) fury and shame?

Mournings Roar (+2)
Kurt Philip Behm said:

Thanks. My Ode to the Navajo, Zuni, and Hopi that live in the Southwest.

Shiprock is their St Peterā€™s Basilica. Itā€™s about all they have left till we figure out how to take that away from them too.
