THE CRAVENNESS OF THE BLUE FUNK
Michael Edwards said:
I guess I\'m lucky in that I can close doors behind me - rarely if ever do I feel the need to revisit them. But I can understand the trauma for those who cannot isolate a troubled past and I have witnessed this at first hand - your superb poem captures this so well .

Hey buddy, you just took me somewhere that I have never actually been before.. shame on me.. I knew it existed but tend to avoid it like the plague.. the reason why, my personal blue funk room consists of a whole new extension and then some.... a great write and one o them universal truths I occasionally bang on about... Have a great weekend my friend... N

Thanks ANDREW for an excellent poem : YES we all bear GUILT for the death of each & every Christian Martyr : from Stephen to those who will die this Month ! We also bear guilt for the death of Jesus for our SINS !
Im the one who shouted CRUCIFY
Im the one who raised His Cross on high
Im the one who stood and watched Him die
What have I done ? Im the one !
If you visit Balliol College in OXFORD : in the carpark there is a BRASS CROSS on the GROUND. It marks the spot where Lattimer & Ridley where burned @ the stake for their Faith in Jesus. Stand on and you can feel the HEAT : AMEN
Blessings in the Spirit : ANGELA 🧡

Once this land too must have witnessed happier times, where farmers toiled and the craftsmen reveled in their work.

A lovely write which underlines the reasons why we write . There is one - no there are two predominant reasons why I write which I can add to this: a daft sense of humour and, more importantly, a love of the language. Regarding the later I value both flow and metre which I try to observe even in my silliest pieces.

Lovely piece sir. Picture reminds me of Skye.
When they are gone, what thoughts accompany them through the years. Chased off their homesteads by capitalist lairds. Where do they end up.
Today we look at these ruins of their past with romantic eyes but the very existence in that land of those times must have been hard work for all.
Yes their souls haunt their lands.
