The Paradox of Living
NinjaGirl said:
I find the first verse doesn\'t always need to happen. Though without capturing we are prone to forget, good memories will reach us someday, even when long forgotten.

NinjaGirl said:
Though I\'m not sure the original intention... I only say my own thoughts. For how often I do my best to keep wet so no hands will pry at me.

Music and poetry are so closely intertwined, beautifully done. I find it that others were afraid to love us because the broken are frowned upon.

Seven Lines to Burn
NinjaGirl said:
The last two lines are particularly poignant...as for the backstory, incredibly lovely, dear Salvia and her wishes of a well week have always made me smile.

Seven Lines to Burn
Cheeky Missy said:
Wherefore shall we burn these seven lines, eh? I must heartily disagree with the assertion that prophets\' \"righteous\" anger drives them, for what about, \"be ye angry and sin not, let not the sun go down upon your wrath, neither give place to the devil,--\" or, \"let every man be swift to hear, slow speak, slow to wrath, for the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God....\" (Eph 4:26-27; James 1:19-20). I dunno. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and heart, not to mention a haunting poignancy. Thank you so very, very much for sharing.

Hello, Tristan,
How the great orators can become so blinkered by their own words that they end up spitting vile as they fall from grace in to the vat of acid of their own making. Excellent stuff, truly. Welcome back to the fold, you were greatly missed.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

I\'m not familiar with the acrostic, so I googled. I think that in the first 4 lines the prophet wisely presents the problem in our society, and in the last 3 defines the answer in \"righteous anger\". Not sure if I interpret correctly, but an incredible message about the state of our society. Kudos!

The poem is striking and thought-provoking. This delivers a clear moral urgency in just a few lines, with a tone that feels both personal and universal. Very nicely written dearest Tittu ❤️
I\'m so happy that you revealed the truth to everyone!!!! This actually put a smile on my face, a prayer in my heart ❤️ and always a thought in my mind. Thank you very much.

Your poem powerfully captures the themes of resilience, self-love, and the profound need for acceptance, shining a light on the struggles of individuals who are often marginalized due to their appearance or personal battles, and how this leads to profound feelings of isolation and desperation, serving as a powerful reminder of the damaging impact of societal norms and the transformative power of compassion, empathy, and kindness, inspiring a call to action for greater understanding, tolerance, and love towards those who are perceived as different.

I guess the world is more interested in material beauty these days, may I just say that Pamela Anderson has single handedly brought beauty back down to earth, choosing to be herself without makeup, without plastic surgery, she had a boob job in her 20\'s but that\'s it, beauty really is inside and in the eyes of the beholder, it\'s not just nonsense it\'s true, and my dear Tristan, I wouldn\'t care what any other human thinks of me that\'s just wasting time and energy and emotions better wasted on loving ones self. A great song my dear friend.

There\'s a fundamental horror of aberrations which, aided and abetted by hauteur, only worsens the situation. Besides, perception is half the problem. This pretty number seems incomplete, begun, yet painfully lacking closure. Thank you so very, very much for sharing this.

ElizabethMoroz said:
Pertinent subject matter that is addressed sensitively in the notes and promotes discussion on how others perceive suicide and defines opens the door for a more considered sensitive and non judgmental approach to a very tragic and real element of life that is too often swept under the carpet. Well done for discussing such a sensitive topic with both the scalpel and thee sensitivity in the nites to balance. Brilliant and socially very responsible to include a helpline at the bottom. Well done Tristan, I’m passionate about mental health and this is a delicate subject that you have dealt with with skill. Elizabeth

I like seeing the \'still\' drawing...
So, I got curious...and, wanted to see the \'animated\' GIF...; but, didn\'t really note a whole lot of difference. Just a \'blinking\' effect going really \'fast\'...showing \'white/black...white/black\'/-etc.

the face of life\'s challenges. The poet acknowledges the difficulties and emotional struggles they have experienced but emphasizes their determination to persevere and look forward to better times. with the reflections on personal hardships, aging, emotional turmoil, and the hope for change. It captures a sense of urgency to confront life\'s obstacles and the desire for freedom and joy, symbolized by the metaphor of buying a bike. The poem is written to express the poet\'s journey through hardship, encapsulating both their pain and their determination to move forward, ultimately serving as a reminder of the importance of resilience and hope.
