Deep Subtleties
Bella Shepard said:

I think you\'ve captured the essence of experience leading to wisdom. I especially love the last part \"earned not assumed\". Beautifully put.

\'Pivot knots

\'Torquing,
Writhing\'
\'Contour
the medium.\'

\'Pressure
points.
Spinning.
Millions
altering
directions.
Creating,
altering
events.
Large
small.
Brush
strokes
each.
All the
same.\'
(what scintillatingly worded brevity
you\'ve showcased in this write, dear poet
and I really like those judgemental \'side eyes\', in the artwork
\'one generation
questioning, another
both
sat, just watching-on
commentating
as the theatre, of life
unfolds
before their very eyes\')

Illusions
L. B. Mek said:

\'conceptualisation of matter\'
divided, by
\'cognitive capacity, of humanity\'
then
multiply, that figure
with what we get, from
Universe
by
Infinite...
(yeah, the odds aren\'t in our favour)
so why not just
deal with the maths, we can handle
like:
kindness
divided, by
awareness
and
multiply that moral virtue
with what we get, from
\'sincerity of self\'
by
\'loyalty, to those who matter\'...
(yeah, nothing as concrete as a new building
to contribute to the aid of the homeless
but,
we do get something, to gauge
our worth, by
and anchor our self assurance, upon...
sounds like, better maths
to me)
there\'s a great questing
for some semblance of balance
in your write, dear poet
I imagine your write like a thermometer
with one (destructive) extreme, at the outset
being distilled/drilled
into its opposite extreme, at the bottom..
your style really helps unfurl your points
in an accessible manner,

That reality is within us all and that is what we must cling onto in this world.

Compliance and subservience are there for many but those who think outside the box go on differing paths.

Shadow

True words John, we must be at one with our shadow.

Shadow
Zepella said:

This is very inspiring! The only suggestion I would say is to possibly change \"unrecognized\" to \"unrecognizable\". Otherwise, I loved it, thank you!

Shadow
L. B. Mek said:

take out everything
and just leave us these words, dear Poet
and you\'ll have penned a classic
to keep Relevant: \'The, Classic\'s\':
\'Know
thyself
less be
defined
by others.
Look
through
the veil.
See past
interference.
Societies
clutter.
Personal
shadow
unrecognized
controllable.
Easily
manipulated.
Easily
lead astray.
Know the
shadow
know
thyself.\'

L. B. Mek said:

\'you write the Poetry
I\'ll bark, the drums
maybe we can stumble
that revolution, mindset
of Purposed, awareness
into the Reality, horizon\'s
of future Generations...\'
(the sheer
frustration fuelled, passion
you imbued into these words
dear poet
is just jumping-off, our screens
a great write!
drilling deep, to unearth the core
sickness, enveloping while poisoning
our globalised - yet segregated, Society
in modernity\'s: cyclical
\'Age of anxiety\'...)
