Tristan you and I both chose the theme of religion today. A mind bond I would assume. This poem sends a message so neglected in religion and often myth as well in a male dominated history and society. A wonderful write with a powerful message and a fave

The Parallax of Presentation
Thomas W Case said:
Truth hits like a bat to the skull—raw, unflinching, and exactly what writing should do.
The Biaxial Parallax form suits this: chaotic, precise, and unapologetically alive.

Not going to investigate the mechanics of form, Tristan, as I don\'t think I\'ll be utilising it. But that doesn\'t mean that it did not serve your message well, for I understood it clearly; this also attributable to the fact that I agree with every word (or did after I found out what \'Nugatory\' meant and acquainted myself with Kali.🙃👍

I like the presentation of his poem as if on the right is the voice of truth. It speaks with authority and confirms the value of individuality despite its banishment from social acceptance. A world of veneers and polish hides true value beneath its gilded shine. A rusted ax has more value than a gilded one of tin. A fave

I fully agree with your idea, that there are countless ways to die and to have your life finished, both mentally-emotionally and physically. Best wishes,

I remember a friend telling me that George Harrison used to say to people when they were telling him about someone who\'d just died, \"I bet your glad it wasn\'t you\"!

Powerful and haunting. The way you explore the multifaceted nature of death, culminating in the chilling \'death of I\', leaves a lasting impact. The Prometheus reference 🔥 adds depth to the existential dread. Loved the line \'Who am I to write down a lie?\' 🤔 - a poignant reflection on authenticity in mortality. Very well written dearest Tittu!!! A fave🌹

I like the rhyme and structure of this one! Rhyming with another stanza is entertaining! And as for death, he does succeed in many ways, but the emotional death of ourselves, perhaps it\'s something that can be undone.

(It is being so cheerful wot keep you going, Tristan😂) Your structure muscled me through to the end. But frankly, after I\'m gone I won\'t care. However it maintained my interest in a perverse kind of way.

I is - a very ungrammatical start from me there - I is saying this is a good write T.
Erm, I experienced a death of I - summat like this: * was go*ng to s*t r*ght here and wr*te a w*tty poem about Ob* and the * key on me keyboard jammed. Doh!

There really should be a pill against dying.
Now other people wanting you dead, that\'s different.
Still, immortality is quite nice too.
I\'ll be happy to get buried in a hot country.

So many ways to die some erase a person from memory, from history, from a family, from friends, a lover but the worst is when one dies it their own eyes. A lovely write Tristan

Was it defusing or distress brought on by desperation, or both? The gruesome end sheds little light as well; did he grab the wheel as a final act of desperation or extricate himself from the scene? The mind grows wild with imaginings. Hard hitting poem here, Tittu🙏🏻🫥👊🏻🫀

There\'s terrible punishments and torments for unrepentant murderers, especially child-murderers. There has to be justice. Eternal torments for the perpetrators.

That worm certainly illustrated that Real Estate is not ultimate reality, Tristan.
Now I\'d like to take it further to point out that bits of moi were once a star, but cannot find a worm substitute connector. Any tips? Or could this be another case of DIY...?😜

Ashes to ashes, taxes paid, you may join your ancestors in the ground.
It\'s a fitting end to know the worms you put on fishing hooks are now sifting your soul.
I will be more respectful to worms now.

The worm is in the words shape and all. Indeed dirt is more than powered rock it is rot as well and out of rot comes new life and back again it goes. As a poet new work comes from old and as it dies it returns to where it came from. Well done Tristan

Nicely done.Your poem revolves around the transient nature of life and the interconnectedness of existence, emphasizing that humans are part of a larger cycle of life and death. The poet critiques the commodification of land and property, suggesting that the earth is ultimately a shared resource that connects all living beings

Paul Bell said:
There is a stark message here. When all along you thought you mattered, but in reality you were only a number, disposable to be replaced with someone else who doesn\'t matter either. A bit like the Fleetwood Mac song. Players only love you when they\'re playing.
Mind you, I would gladly get replaced in January.
