Maybe you\'re trying too hard. I\'m probably downright terrible for contentedly being myself, perpetually needing excuses, but you know. If you\'re truly you, what more do you need except salvation? Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy.

I love the style of music from my era. White rabbit, purple haze, strawberry fields forever. Not familiar with this one though. A fun write with the rhyme that bounced it along to the end. Well done my friend.

A strong, thought-provoking poem. Title is striking and that reinforces the central message, and the contrast between the poem\'s rhythmic flow and its dark critique of greed, colonization, and environmental destruction makes it especially impactful. Very well written dearest Tittu ❤️ a fave 🌹

I\'m coming to the conclusion
That as long as we remain in \"separation\"
Which is limitation
Then the insatiable consumption
Will refuse to exit the building
Even if it means our own destruction!

So true it is Tristan we continue to expand and wish to colonize new frontiers when all we do is use up all the resources on the ones we inhabit. Well written my friend

Good write T. Mary\'s never answered any of my prayers - cos I\'ve never prayed to her, not being Roman Catholic nor of other denominations that are into Maryolatry - or Mariolatry!
It\'s idolatry Popeye - Spinach-olatry! lol.

There’s a haunting spiritual weight here, where guilt, grace, and consequence wrestle beneath the surface.
The poem feels like a reckoning with the past, searching for resurrection after everything has been stripped away.

I always saw many Bible stories as allegories and metaphors just are myths in general. This may be one more where our own internal guilt becomes personified in images of saints and gods. Lovely Tristan

well written. Tristian, you are a man who works for God. Your poem explores themes of resurrection, guilt, and the dichotomy between past pleasures and present pains. It reflects on the complexity of human emotions, particularly how individuals are often exiled or marginalized by their own choices and feelings of guilt. The mention of \"Mother Mary\" invokes religious undertones, suggesting a search for redemption and understanding amidst suffering and dislocation.

People experience guilt, suffering, and the hope of redemption, but the meaning of those experiences is often claimed, reshaped, or appropriated by larger powers, especially through religious or cultural symbols. There is so much grey in the middleman territory that could go either way.

Governments agree you only need to be told a little of the truth, otherwise you can\'t cope.
Sadly, the little truth has disappeared and you just get the 100% lie now.
That doesn\'t mean you shouldn\'t vote for me, cos I can turn water into wine. Though due to the hosepipe ban you\'ll need to wait awhile.

I thought this was gonna be about inversion therapy - tipped upside down to be \'reborn\' and all that guff!
Meanwhile we will stay the right way up. Popeye has to, to be able to eat his spinach. lol.

In a poem of antiphysics and counter economics where control is removed and placed all is lies. Lies are control and the mention of Lord of the flies a book of boys shipwrecked and having to set up government without adults that results in control and disaster. Nicely done Tristan you know very well that I am anti government of any form but also know that anarchism does not work either making me a bit of a nihilist but more of an isolationist for population reduction, and with that a bit of a hypocrite with four children of my own (conceived before my ideas had formed). A most thought provoking piece my friend

A lyrical trip in this write.
Maybe shouldn\'t mention \'trip\'
I quite like the idea of dying for fame, as long as the royalties reach me in heaven.

Hi Tristan. I haven\'t been back on this site regularly for very long, but this is definitely one of my favourite writes from you. I\'ll certainly be reading more of your back catalogue and keeping up to date with your new material.
I\'m no stranger to psychedelics (not so much now but when I was a little younger) so this was right up my street. I\'ve read Timothy Leary, Huxley\'s Heaven and Hell (and The Doors of Perception is never far from my mind whenever The Doors are mentioned), so a lot of these references landed for me.
Very much enjoyed. I like your use of alliteration in the third stanza. I use it whenever I can too.
Great write - Syd 🍄
