This is like a hybrid of my FFF poem and the New Testament book of Revelation - numbers in there - 666, etc, many of them symbolic.

Oh, I can so relate to these emotions. Really well expressed and without any pretence or complications. Well played on the form too!

A read on the darker side it seems to have a feel of Gothic to it. That’s OK though I like cloudy days from time to time. Written with great imagery and a sense of pathos.

Sometimes we can’t find happiness even if we want to feel that way . Sounds like the state of mind and environment isn’t helping. I guess we can be stuck with how we feel ,sometimes

Cryogenic Catharsis
orchidee said:

You tried that cryogenic therapy - a tub at about a million degrees below freezing? Well, up about -200C really.
Yes - barber-surgeons in days of old. Were people there just for a haircut? Their red and white poles are ominous. The red is for.....argh!

isn\'t it difficult to speak when it feels like a knife is in your throat? how long will the roses remain rotting... release is relief.

Cryogenic Catharsis
sorenbarrett said:

Bleeding is cathartic seems like a term used in the days when they did bleeding as a surgical procedure. A most interesting poem, full of introjections. Cryogenics do they still do that?

Shape poetry. A double helping of creativity Tristan. Time - a Grand Canyon or a speck of sand. Love the imagery that comes to mind here. For me, it is speeding up as the sand shifts through the hour glass timer. When young, the days seemed endless. Wonderful write. Thank you.

With such a discussion, to think there\'s such an unavoidable reality coming upon us as \"...there shall be time no longer--\"(Rev 10:6b). I like your none too subtle point that it\'s not a trivial matter. Beautifully rendered with an excellently haunting poignancy and great imagery. Thank you for sharing.

Good one Tristan! Down to the shapely hourglass ⌛️ curves; and Yes I’ve pondered upon this many a moment. And speaking of mythology; the Greek kairos and kronos are excellent clues to how we perceive time.

I was ranting, sort of, in a recent poem, of people who say \'This moment in time\' or other naff expressions. I wouldn\'t mind, but they say them about 10 million times a day! lol.
And - Ohh, they say \'Time goes fast when you\'re enjoying yourself\' Does it?!

The paradox of time to me is that the more miserable one is the slower it goes, and the more joy one finds the faster it runs. I have spent many hours thinking about what time really is a fifth dimension bent by gravity Einstein’s view simply an issue of movement in space, I have no idea, but I know that it has gone too fast for me. A wonderful poem, brilliant !!!

Thoughts on your piece, Tristan:
1. Stunning ingenuity involved
2. Beautiful to look at and read.
3. Are you aware there are only 24 hours available each day?

Great to see your name on the roll call so regularly.

Enough
NinjaGirl said:

isn\'t it hard to be enough when they expect so much? must you be rich, hard-working, family-loving, vacation-seeking, world-traveling, business-creating, and already-on-retirement to be enough? the paradox is evident: you must love working for your family but must love family over work, value relationships more yet sacrifice relationships for success.

beautiful lights, jolly old saint nick, and gifts galore--starving kids, houseless humans, all to ignore. christians who don\'t act like Christ; the name only to show others they are a \'good person\'

Did AI create this scene? I can only imagine the humorous prompt. Echoes remain of what once was... great poem

A label is trying to sum up an entire person in one word. making them smaller, less than what they are. if all one ever is is \"weak\" they won\'t know if they can ever be strong in anything.

I like the form of this poem, but even more I liked some of the internal rhyme and the meaning behind it. Well thought out and thought provoking it has dropped its spores.
