This should be printed in a Gothic script and framed likewise, then hung at the entry to all houses of assembly. When some would feign deny it\'s reality, fearing innately the sheer madness, they must be calmed since this is a cute definition of aka reality. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

For most poems I ignore the form of the print on the page but for yours I have learned that there is a message there as well. At first I saw a martini glass and thought of how alcohol greases the mouth. Then I saw the upper half of an hourglass and speech flowing while life is going. The poem itself speaks to me of of covering with words what one does not want others to see. A distraction and when alone I distract myself with speech as well. The final few lines indicate change in a way (Stop it epic fail just drop it) the end of speech and therefore the distraction. Most lovely my friend

Oh what motivated ye, o poor impoverished one? Fear of total loneliness? Masochistic tendencies? A great portrait of someone (because I doubt that is really you, Tristan) with dependency issues.

The emotions and visuals here make me relive a part of my younger self, I\'ve been reading a lot of Sylvia Plath who I regards a friend now, as she has truly given me a light of inspiration, your poetry is as exquisite as ever. ๐น

What a marvelous poem of that tether that holds so many of us to a relationship. Why? Because that is the way it is meant to be. It is the way that it has always been and so normal is what we seek. It feels comfortable somehow, as if change is threatening. Very nice Tristan

For me it was a tale(s even) between my dreams last night. LOL. Quite a cheeky pup that knows what they want even when the master slumbers.... now there is intimacy like no other.๐๐ป๐๏ธ

A strong poem of grit and determination, perseverance and toughness. The continued reoccurring line rhymes gave the added impression of perseverance. Nicely done Tristan

Delightful. Nothing like the absolute winner in the zombie apocalypse, the epitome of their essence delineated in a trice so beautifully. Excellently rendered with lovely imagery and a fitly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

\"I is ready\", indeed. A call to self in this rather unique passage of exuberant poetry. Expressed with an intellectual flair for language and poetic devices. I love this poem and everything about it. Very well done to be sure.
Kind regards,
Tony.

Me again - lol. I know an uplifting Chorus on part of Psalm 137 - not concerning vengeance on enemies though. Erm, that\'s no reason to sing endless \'Choruses\' about 500 times in one go. Seems like about 500 times sometimes. lol.

I will be fussy! Slightly ungrammatical - \'I is ready\'?! Though probably said that way by some dialects in part of the UK.
Meanwhile - \'I be writing me next poem!\' lol.

I like how you used the personal pronoun I. Powerful and direct it sings out against oppression. Babylon the symbol of debauchery and evil much like Sodom is well used in this poem. Nicely phrased and worded it carries the reader along to the end.

How frequently our initial perceptions are inaccurate and need revision. A great poem about jumping to conclusions. A most important point since first impressions are often hard to break.
