Michael Edwards said:

It\'s all been said - a golden write - wishing you everything I would wish for myself and more - maybe a tad smug but we poets are a breed apart - it takes a special talent to write works of the standards displayed every day on this site and you are up there with the best,

Your first two lines say it all, it takes a very special person to be able to write poetry. We\'ve all got that talent, from the warmest deepest parts of Tuscany and London I send you nothing but the best of everything dearest Tristan such a special place here, for so many reasons. ๐ŸŒน

Inflection, stress, diction, enunciation, changes things: โ€œOh DEAR, poets!โ€ Lol. Liked and Faved. What a way to cap 2024, Tristan. The first line is golden!!! For me atm, it is the poetโ€™s mantra!

I got the acrostic which was extremely well executed .. the pipe bowl in my good eye looked like half a Rorschach butterfly naked and wielding a machete in the direction of a hoard of advancing baguettes .. Nice one our Tristan .. ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ‘

arqios said:

Nice take on the idiom โ€œup in smokeโ€ powerfully expressed sense of being trapped in a cycle of despair and self-destruction. The vivid imagery and emotional depth highlight the struggle to find meaning and escape from the torment. This poemโ€™s exploration of existential tragedy and the impact of others\' actions adds a poignant layer to the narrative. Thrill to read. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

I used to hate the smoking on buses. We see it outside work places now, thankfully restricted from indoors.
Meanwhile - I Have \'no reason\' not to be ontological or obfuscating. Fido says, Woof, get the dictionary out cos you\'re talking rubbish again! lol.

Why?
Teddy.15 said:

Oh Tristan I know it was a truly wonderful piece of music some proffs are void of emotion, sometimes they just believe they see more others so little, here in Italy we ha e many of these types. Pulling on my heartstrings today. ๐ŸŒน

sorenbarrett said:

Clever in shape and Accrostic as well as dealing with what is truth anyway. A most difficult topic and evoking emotion from his words. Nicely done

Neville said:


There is an old saying .. \"those who can, do and those who can\'t, teach\" .. and whilst I do believe there is some truth in this .. it still doesn\'t give anyone the right to be so bloomin rude .. A truly captivating Y shaped poem Tristan .. Neville

Why?
Doggerel Dave said:

I donโ€™t think the question can be answered other than to remind that there are bad actors among humanity. Having noted that is not to dismiss the pain of your experience, Tristan.
Iโ€™d like to acknowledge your formatting. I made an attempt quite early on to attempt a novel layout or two and failed miserably. Those that do (and you are among a small elite group) I can only salute as I do you.

Flickering Shadows
Cassie58 said:

This is so well written, but it speaks to me of a really dark place. Deep and suffocating in its sorrow. I hope there was a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel that you could hold on to. Without hope we are finished. Excellent reflection Tristan.
