I like this very much. I was always taught that it is the journey not the destination that matters. Your play with words is the same mental process as focusing on the destination. From the root destined and yet is our journey destined to arrive where we aim. Alterations along the way, sometimes taking the road less traveled lead us to a new end, maybe better that the original, maybe worse but it is the trip not the end of life that makes it worth while. A wonderful write and a fave

Divinity

Simple, sacred, and unflinching—your tree hums with quiet power.
You reach for divinity without flinching, gritty in its devotion.

And now a line from a hymn: \'There\'s a sound on the wind.......\' Oh no, another sound now, a glug! That\'s thrown me off-course! lol.

Nicely said. Your poem revolves around the deep connection between nature and spirituality. The poet expresses admiration and reverence for a tree, which symbolizes life, divinity, and freedom.

Argh! Hope it\'s not a spinach tree (does spinach grow on trees? lol), or spinach patch. Popeye was downcast. He mistook it; it was a cabbage patch. heehee.
A fine write T. There\'s a somewhat similar hymn/chorus starting: \'\'I\'ve taken my harp down from the willow tree (symbolic of sadness)......\'
Play that harp, Popeye, and take a break from glugging. He said he will, but it will only last about, oh, 42 seconds. lol.

Most intriguing Tristan. I believe that what people call divinity is in all things and so this caught my attention. All nature itself is divine to me. Nicely rhymed and worded.

For me a interesting write, totally endorse the Howard section and most of the Thurman section, but personally struggle with the Jesus part. Very strong worded statements that do energise the gray matter, enjoyed the read.

Silence is the scream - and now for some really deep comment from me, but wait...... a distraction..... it\'s the scream of hearing yet another glug! heehee.
We\'ll hear it through a padded cell too, it\'s so loud and so often. lol.

A great acrostic, are the lines in it inspired by Howard? Each has its own power and meaning. Very nicely done Tristan

Rocket Man\'s Descent
Paul Bell said:
This is the hint of British summer where we take fourteen layers of clothes off and embrace the day.
Sadly we walk twenty yards and the great bloody yellow thing decides its not time yet.
You can see why we throw ourselves onto the dirt in toatal despair.
Just realised its meteorological spring, and the rain\'s getting warmer.

Poetic Licence said:
This has the real sense of joy and happiness that is so needed, just being blown away as the confusion and despair return to take their normal place. The constant struggle of a troubled mind, will it be heaven or hell today, the question we ask every morning. Pleasure to read

Conjures images easy to imagine in reality, nearly alive. The Dragon is symbolic of so many things. \"To defeat the darkness
One must find the light from within\" is timeless wisdom. Nicely done.

Yes, you had a long walk - up the garden path, as they say - and back again! You tipsy there?
Or....I knows why - you heard a glug, then fainted! lol.

I wonder it this is how one might feel expecting a resurrection at death and finding that there is no heaven or hell just dirt in one\'s grave. A solid write Tristan.

Well written . Tristan, your poem revolves around the poet\'s experience of stepping into a new day, the initial joy of life, followed by a sudden confrontation with feelings of despair and disconnection. The imagery of the sun and the earth symbolizes hope and grounding, respectively.

Tristan, this is so very Dante Alighieri, it speaks of Heaven and Hell in a subtle yet extraordinary way. There is excitement and vision it\'s truly wonderful. 🌹

Fascinated with the concept. Light from the view of a photon is immortal having no beginning and no end it has always been existing before the big bang as a singularity it lives without time. Being everywhere at once it is omnipresent. In religious terms it is an angel of light it is the word and as a poet then the written word is light to enlighten and thereby knowledge. so the dragon enters. A poem full of meaning.

The Well
Poetic Licence said:
I know this is about looking into a well, always the temptation to look and explore deeper, and clearly this well isnt well and it would be wise to avoid, but when reading this I couldn\'t help thinking it\'s looking into one\'s own soul, and how it has become tainted over time. Life\'s actions situations have darkened it overtime, that it now is now feeling unwell and looking in some way to find the right medicine, loved the write,

\"All hell is bound inward.\" Great line, Tristan. It\'s like our senses reach outward and then pull the impressions inward. Insatiably.

This could be the start of Trumps first term. Sleepy Joe\'s missed term, heading back to Trumps next term fixing the world, not forgetting the blatent overlooking of the prestigious Nobel prize for the man who saved the world, turned water into wine, fought with the Romans, and was Jesus\'s right hand man.
State of the union speech was fun.
