Bald Is the New Beautiful
sorenbarrett said:

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.

the agony
NafisaSB said:

the agony is so well described - one can almost hear the clink of the metal chains - beautifully worded

Warning signs could be more updated, but even then as mentioned so appropriately, they are hardly ever heeded๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ•Š

sorenbarrett said:

Strong, logical, philosophical and poetic quite a bunch in one short passage. A lovely bouquet of fragrance that smells of the truth. Loved it a definite Fave

And I was beginning to think that a new style was in its nascent period. Your note marries well with the execution that you intended๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Tristan many complain but few do anything. Those in power have no interest in change and would give us an artificial light that everything is all right. The last line is quite pertinent (and what now?)

But things have turned to life, from Easter Sunday onwards! Though we\'ve \'journeyed\' through Holy Week first.

There\'s three -umbras thingys, I discovered. Dunno what they are exactly, so I will stop before I dig myself into a hole and become a jibbering wreck! lol.

sorenbarrett said:

How appropriate for the day. This poem through the mouths of ancient Greeks to Ecclesiastes archetypes and bible images appear. A fun use of space in this text adds flavor. Very nicely don my friend.

Good write T.

holy nothing
sorenbarrett said:

A poem of entropy and decay, where blackness is the only light. What a powerful thought. A poem of nothingness that is so powerful and emphatic leaving little hope. Nicely worded it is inwardly metaphoric. Usually metaphors go from a single item to a bigger concept but in this case it goes from the universe to the individual as well. The feeling of nothing.

Hi Triston, Excellent, excellent write. I read this twice and my mind absorbed each word written. And as I was saying WOW to one stanza, along came another one just as good if not better than the words I just read. Seriously, excellent write!

The dark inner struggle gathering pace through the write only to be then slowed down to arrive at its destined conclusion, no nicely expressed and written

If it was just an entirely \'dark\' poem for the sake of it, I could say \'Ahh, so you\'ve spent one while day with KP?!\' heehee.

Cheeky Missy said:

Dang, Tristan! By night or day, the misery finds an eloquent scribe to tell of that internal struggle none but feel, yet fewer can put into words as deliciously as yourself. La dee! Gorgeously rendered with nigh exquisite imagery, that particular delight of poets in consonance and assonance, and a gripping, haunting, familiar poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
