All in one, Tristan. theyβd rather not hear because of the fear which clears them away from listening. They\'d rather not change but stay within range of what they think they know.
You make yourself too malleable by those unavailable to new ideas.ππ

Yes, it\'s the palm off, and why guys don\'t share their problems.
21st century is a mental health nightmare that no one escapes from now, and I\'m sure it\'s the barriers that prevent you moving forward, and the chancers on social media who live in cupboards but have opinions on everything.

Why, yes, they say the same to me. I ask \'Why?\' They reply in one of two ways:
(a) Cos you\'re a crashing bore and I can\'t stand listening to you when you get waffling over your photo albums yet again\' (lol)
or (b) Cos you only talk about a certain fella and Co - and if I hear glugging once more, I will........ (heehee).

I\'m not quite sure if it\'s what you meant, but the chord harpies\' screeches are not unlike the harsh bizarre sounds that come from an old, out-of-tune harpsichord. Good poems often morph into sound in the mind. You hit the spot!

How true it is that the lack of sound can be heard as loud as any other note. This poem in its brevity tells quite a story in some ways mystical in some ways, philosophic very nicely done Tristan.

Well written, Tristan, this speaks to my heart,β€οΈYour poem explores the themes of despair, haunting memories, and the inescapability of one\'s internal struggles. It suggests that even silence, which is often perceived as peace, can be oppressive and suffocating. Yet to me, this poem serves to express the complexity of human emotions, particularly how art (in this case, music) can evoke and encapsulate feelings of sorrow, entrapment, and the struggle for peace amidst chaos. The poet may be attempting to confront or articulate their pain, seeking understanding or catharsis through the written word.

The Jesus sentiment is a great thing, and I believe everyone agrees with that.
At some point the money men got hold of all this good and self promoted it to their own ends.
The Vatican, Church of England, the American churches. The amount of wealth is staggering, and for some reason the guy dying on the cross just gets left behind.

The poem emphasizes inclusivity, grace, and the importance of spiritual renewal. It communicates the message that everyone, especially the marginalized and the poor, deserves vitality and salvation, irrespective of societal judgment.

Doh! Does that mean J.Wesley knocked, but the door was not opened unto him? To reverse some of the words of a song there.
There\'s someone else knocking at the door, but we dare not let him in. We can hear him outside - a glugging sound, I fear. lol.

Whether a Christian or not the message of Jesus is what saves, that of giving all to those that need. It is not ours anyway, only on loan so why not share. Well written Tristan

A poem that I feel the surge in. Electrical it shocks and in its current reminds that we are not machines that are owned and controlled by a master but our own beings with our own power and will not tolerate having the plug pulled.

The poem revolves around empowerment and resistance against oppression. The speaker asserts their autonomy and refuses to be silenced or controlled by someone who employs violence, both verbal and emotional. The poem conveys a strong message about self-worth and the rejection of compliance in the face of abusive behavior.

Bella Shepard said:
Such creatures are we that often judge or reject another at face value, never knowing what lies within. As long as those who make the products, they claim will make us beautiful, set the standarad for beauty, we will continue to fall prey to its allure. This poem graphically captures the feelings of negative self image in the picture, the presentation, the emotion. Outstanding write!

Well said, my friend. Your poem explores the contrast between beauty and ugliness, self-perception, and societal judgment. The poet expresses a longing for beauty through imagery related to art (painted fingers) while also confronting feelings of disdain and shame. The poem addresses self-identity, the pressures of appearance, and the emotional scars caused by societal expectations.

Never understood why Turkeys voted for Thanksgiving in the first place.
I always liked the way the white man stole lands off the indignities.
Liked the way they pretended they were doing them a favour, making life better for them.
Now that we\'ve raped all their lands, it only seems right that we send them all back to their lands.
Pass the gravy, Trumpy our lord is about to speak.
