Through A Glass Lightly
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

The table is set and ready for the lunch we’re about to enjoy.
While I’m waiting for my aunt’s favorite Saturday lunch (a Margherita pizza with a glass of wine), I decided to read some of today’s posted poetry. I noticed your poem’s title…and here I am I staring at my aunt’s wine glass which she’ll soon imbibe its contents.
What does any of this have to do with your poem? Nothing! I’m just enjoying the coincidence of the glass and it’s timing.

A very interesting ā€˜Dreamsleep’…short but powerful!

Have a wonderful weekend, my dear Poet.

\'Music By Moonlight\'
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

O\' the loving nightingale…
ā€˜Beauty to beauty’ indeed.

Not only so many thoughts and feelings were evoked within me while reading your wonderful short but powerful poem; it also reminded me of Oscar Wilde’s short story, ā€œThe Nightingale and the Roseā€ā€¦although a tragic fantasy story, it had many other themes to reflect upon.

Thank you for sharing.

Twilight Disconnect (+2)
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œTwilight Disconnectā€
These nights are prone to get longer and longer.

• ā€œTo Glen Campbellā€
One of my favorite artists…
obviously for his songs
and his
ā€˜twelve stringed harp’….
(Thanks to my aunt for introducing me to that one).

• ā€œA Silent Tollā€
ā€˜Are you everything you could have been,’…
Hoping to have the chance to find out.

Three great reads for this long night.

The vinyl record player is ready…

Fault Lines
Laura🌻 said:

Kurt,

• ā€œFault Linesā€
A great title for your thought provoking poem.

ā€˜Fault lines’ are created due to much stress.

The first two words really got me thinking.
These ā€˜Spiritual draftsmen’ may be skilled at drafting plans; but in the process, have they considered the impact of the outside forces which cause so much stress?
We must find a way to repair the incompatible views we share to save ourselves from a monumental collision.

It’s always a pleasure to read your work.

Laura🌻

Damnation\'s Buffet
L. B. Mek said:

just know, I favourited for the title - alone
(indeed - sadly, wise Poet
celebrating all the things I lack, to affirm
that ego thwarting, anchor
I cherish most: as my fortitude of humility)
an important message/lesson, Kurt
thank you

Breaking Free
L. B. Mek said:

\'the pitfalls deep and mighty
Hunted for the threat I pose\'..
and that\'s the very, few
who dare to acknowledge the power
contained
in each fibre, of the freedom they breathe
with purposed: Intent!
(if you\'re not part of the majority, ignorant Herd
prepare for the wolves
to track your every move
for your spark of defiance
fast translates into their callous joy: of the Hunt)..
a thought provoking read, dear poet
so many meaningful observations
worded eloquently: relatable

The Darker Side Of Camelot
L. B. Mek said:

\'A monarchy of lost regret,
in anger’s shame he crumbles

Trapped inside a broken dream\'..
yeah, I too agree - that
supposedly heroic tale, (whichever version)
has a lot of egotistically - warped
bad decision making, staining its plot
and its portrayal of love, from
all three key characters
reaks: of selfishness and greed...
(a wonderful read, thanks for sharing Kurt)

\"blind

Very nice!

Thanks LB

Servitude
L. B. Mek said:

\'A portal indentured\'
yeah, that\'s a line I gravitate towards
that thread of feigned opportunity
\'They\' - float, invitingly
just out of reach, knowing
by the timing you arrive
you\'re so black n blue, even
your memories are curtained, blind
in an endless night: of futile regret...
(another write that had me tracing prickly scars
now long repressed
and for the most part: blissfully - forgotten...)
we must shed, to find strength - enough
to take, that most important: next step!
(thanks for sharing, dear Poet)
