Too young to know yourself.
arqios said:
Been too young to know and scarier to be too old know any better. Probably the hardest thing is to allow life to carry us through the turmoil. \"You think too much,\" was often hurled. Now I think, it\'s better to think some than not at all. \"All things in moderation,\" they say. And that I\'ve managed to some degree. What is age and knowing got to do with anything, who told us such lies. Experience and living is prolly what they mean, the greater the track record the more you\'ll have seen. There is a saying from far up north that goes, \"You\'ll Never Never Know, If You Never Never Go...\" or some such thing. Thank you for sharing and hope this didn\'t sound like sermonising.

More than one story

I appreciate this exercise in form, a tool not all that many poets employ. To me, the form of a poem is a factor in its beauty. Well done, calbreezy!

The light is always out there but sometimes you need to go through the darkness to find it, it is called experience. Good write.

Crying For Trying
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
BEAUTIFUL CAL ~ Real Men cry ~ I know I do ! Each verse is dripping with Pathos over lost love. In my experience you do get over it but ironically the only real antidote is the real love of another LADY. Yes "Love is a Game" but it's a game that all REAL MEN what to keep on playing ~ until the day they die ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN. Please check my Poem ~ Ebony Girl ~ Thanks.

WELCOME CAL ~ Thank you for a very philosophical first poem. Man (H. Sapiens) is a very complex creature with an interacting Body ~ Mind ~ Spirit.. Your poem focuses on the Human Brain. We are born a Tabla Rasa and as we develop we fill in our conceptual map with experiences ~ literacy ~ numeracy ~ manual skills etc. The Human Brain has an infinite capacity to retain and analyse and integrate all that we learn in Education and in the Market Place. As we mature (I'm 33) the knowledge and experience stored in our brains defines who and waht we are in the Community. It is a symbiosis between our "control" of our brains and our brain's "control" of us. BUT we are not ROBOTS we all have free will and must strive to be the Masters of our own Destinies. When the vital link between a "Man and his Brain" ceases to function "Alzheimers" that is a living death. We must ~ at all costs ~ value and protect our BRAINS ! Thanks for sharing ~ BRIAN
