in the theme of Jerry Maguire:
\'you enticed my scholarly instincts
with those brilliant first two lines\'..
as ever, so unwaveringly insightful even when those insight\'s demean that very thing we scribblers love to do, how brave dear poet, what an example you project for those who strive to utilise it:
\'We speak of truth, our souls delight,
but actions prove us wrong
If words alone could make it so
—each day would end in song\'

\'I’m not against its formulas,
but the philosophy it breeds
Its laws to serve and fertilize
—a deeper planted seed
Reasoned emotion,
the right and the wrong
Obverted direction,
both weak and both strong
“Free speech for me,
but not for thee”
To pander or slander,
a partisan line
No minds to be changed
—their chorus reminds\'...
forgive me for rearranging your fine work, it would take me a thousand lines to dive deep and unfurl all the insightful wisdom hidden in your words,
so lazily - I chose to restructure your very own nuggets of truth, into one flowing waterfall of accessibly tangible depiction of commentary,
on that underbelly transparency of society,
deciphering between our duality of idealistic aesthetic grandeur and that cesspool of conformity: we titled = Reality...
another great write dear Poet!

a testing read, hard to grasp its overall meaning but, I still appreciate its layered nuances and those self-conflicting sentiment\'s, used to juxtapose commentary of hypocritical judgemental mindset\'s,

A very true and moving poem, Kurt. All we need are words, and sometimes the best place to find them is in solitude.

L. B. Mek said:
these two stanzas below, are a worthy epitaph for any scribbler, at any time: whose passion for life is immortalised within inked words:
\'Though others think me lonely,
the truth is far from that
Comrades made with each new word,
in fiction and in fact\'
\'And when my world goes silent,
I open once again
An authored book, a friend for life
—my soulmate till the end.\'...
in the words of Voltaire:
\'I salute you
in the name of the Alphabet!\'

Thanks for that Kurt - I really enjoy solitude for for vast amounts of time (retirement was a great relief).
This describes my situation almost in it\'s entirety.

Did you write this one for me, Kurt? I never remember, keep on losing words, and don\'t think I will ever be forgiven. :-)

Two great poems, Kurt. The barber in the village where I grew up once told me that there was only one other guy with hair as bad as mine: my Father! So I used brill cream, then water, then finally got to the point where I figured if a girl does not like me because of my hair, so be it! Still feel the same way.
