Dramatic is the music that accompanies the poem. Dark is the feel and rebellious come the words. It has a soft screamo sound. Nicely done my friend

Well written, my friend, your poem expresses a strong sense of defiance and resilience against oppression or control. It emphasizes the idea of individuality and freedom, suggesting that external forces cannot dictate one\'s identity or worth. Very strong words on ones identity👍❤️

Kind of nice to know others as jaded and maybe bitter like me. Eternal night indeed.

Well-written, your poem personifies winter as a \"cold spirit\" that brings about a sense of inevitability and hopelessness. It suggests a world devoid of warmth, color, and hope, with an overarching feeling that existence is marked by a perpetual state of darkness. The poet delves into the emotional and philosophical reflections on life, reality, and the acceptance of a harsh truth that life is mostly devoid of light and joy. Happy New Year, Tristan.😊❤️

So short yet so powerful a call out of shadows and a plea for light. It is highly emotional and sighs the sigh of relinquished acceptance. Well done my friend Happy New Year

Winter as philosophy rather than season — stark, restrained, and quietly unsettling.

Tristan, I must say, you truly outdid yourself in this piece; your reading brought it to life in a breathtaking manner, infused with considerable emotion. Tell me, are you also the illustrator behind the drawings?
Your poem “A Devilishly Dreadful Watch Night Special” delves into themes of love, loss, and the consequences of one’s actions. The poet expresses a deep yearning for a lost love while grappling with the guilt of betrayal and the horror of their current state, which is characterized by undead existence and violence. In which it seems to revolve around a romantic relationship that has transformed into something dark and tragic, involving themes of desire, regret, and the macabre.

It has always been so interesting to me how various emotions and traits can be reconciled in myth, monsters and the fantastic. Here the allegory comes through and issue of fidelity and infidelity seem paired with lover and monster and undead. Well done Tristan Happy New Year to you

Trust those you know are worthy, it\'s new year put the rest in the bin, don\'t trust those who ask for money, they should give it instead. Here\'s wishing you a book of your own, with a publisher who can see you, not use you. 🌹

Here we have a series of contradictions a colorless glare, sightless growing glow, The pairing of glitter of white a usual symbol of good and beauty is matched with demons. This opposition indicates turmoil and conflict to me. Yes the question is why. A wonderful write my friend

Well written. I relate to this. Your poem explores the paradox of isolation and the emotional turmoil it causes. The imagery of snowflakes and a \"sea of glitter white\" suggests beauty but contrasts with feelings of emptiness and the presence of \"guarded ghosts\" and \"defiant demons.\" The poet reflects a struggle with loneliness, the invisible barriers that block connection, and questions why such isolation exists. You speak from the heart.

OMG, well done, my friend, so true.🤣😂 Your poem revolves around the notion of disillusionment with people who are perceived as insincere or hypocritical. The poet expresses disdain for individuals who contribute to societal negativity and superficiality. The subject matter highlights the frustration with \"shitty people\" and their impact on the world, suggesting a broader commentary on human nature and societal values.🤣👍❤️

Is it not so that some find in organizations, religious or otherwise, a legitimization of their nature. The violent find it in so called justice, the thief in retribution, the liar justifies, the murderer seeks war. And from that pulpit we preach to cover our sins now turned commandments.

Your poem is powerful and evocative, utilizing strong, emotive language to convey themes of conflict and hypocrisy. Words such as \"hell,\" \"ignorance,\" \"ruination,\" and \"anathema\" evoke a sense of struggle and darkness. Literary devices employed include.
