Tristan this one is a bit dark. The question is how much is metaphor here. A most interesting write for and eighteen year old.

This is very dark and macabre, especially written at such a young age,my sense is this is a woman with a very troubled possibly abusive past, and the past is not going to let her go free and have a Life, a touch off if I can\'t have you nothing will, well thats my thought, very interesting, intriguing and scary write

Wow. I guess you\'ve been penning in this ghoulish vein far longer than I dreamed, the hellish invocations apropos for such, yet leaving me [haha, and a woman indeed at that], fainting on the threshold of yonder as it is so very dark, I may not proceed any further into its depths. Ghastly and macabre with excellent imagery and a terrifying poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Tristan this harkens of Shakespearean verse.!!! Beautiful rhyme structure and stylistically elegant with poised natural imagery and nuanced tone. Quite the poetic journey here, I was lost in the entirety of this piece. Simply gorgeous work. Elizabeth

Very true insight Tristan. I like the imagery of the written format that works like a visual exclamation of outrage at the statement. Very interesting indeed my friend. It makes me wonder so much about the writing process, the creative processs and how itโs so different for each individual. I love seeing visual diary format expressed in this manner. Elizabeth ๐ฆ๐๐ฆ

A great tribute to the nutcase, I mean that in a nice way, who fronted the godfathers of metal, love him or hate him, there will be no other, I loved him just for being an honest straight up bloke, enjoyed the read

Hello, Tristan,
With an appetite for darkness, laying away the illusion of light. Im happy enough with that, as for the rest of the poem, brilliant though it is but those two lines will do me nicely to remember, Ozzy, RIP. You have done the great man justice.
Fond regards,
Tony.

Hello, Tristan,
I don\'t know who wrote or said this but he or she were definitely not, a farmer, fisher, miner or a hard working labourer, at days end, exhausted, starving - when fed, to bed without words wrote or said. I really love how you have displayed this poem, as if written by a mad calligrapher. A joy to behold and read. Great stuff.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

a beautiful dedication to Ozzy Osbourne.
The poet explores the themes of transformation, duality, and the passage between life and death. It juxtaposes the chaos of existence (represented by the train) with the promise of redemption and understanding on \"the other side.\"To me, the imagery of a train, often a symbol of journey and transition, serves as a vehicle for reflection on the human experience, the struggle between light and darkness, and the inevitable encounter with mortality. The poet seems to be provoking thought about the journey of life, the struggles within it, and the eventual acceptance of death as a transition rather than an end. It invites readers to consider their own experiences and the potential for understanding and connection beyond this life.
I grew up with his music.

Regrettably, I can\'t get the link to open the active document, but perhaps that\'s for the best since I don\'t know whether it\'d trigger me if it did. Who\'s meant to write every single day of their lives anyway? Lazy? That\'s a handy solution to squirming out of the fact you are lazy, simply retort that you did, at least, write for the day. Hahaha. Beautifully rendered in brevity though loaded with import, and haunting with a keen poignancy which remains elusive and undefined. Thank you for sharing.

Is that a hint? As one that writes every day I might say that it is only compulsive blatherers that write every day. Just a little fun with a fun and most creative write my friend. I love your pushing the limits and searching for new ways to express poetry. Most commendable

POWERFUL work Tristan. Dealing with so many profound thematic concepts in one piece and in such verse. I am impressed by the nuanced variation in your tonal command of English and the philosophical breadth and depth of your postulations. Indeed you are a true philosopher. Stirring piece of confrontation with both light and dark. Amazing. Elizabeth

Confounding, and yet I think credulous, showing us a side of humanity that is difficul to grasp. At least that\'s what I think, I could be wrong. I love the challenge, and you certainly came through.

sorenbarrett said:
I love the creative word play in this poem where the first letter in the line above serves as the same letter in the vertical line, the division of a word to lend ambiguity and double meaning to the phrase but most of all I love the concept that both God and Satan are one in the same and that both are us God in the I am and Satan in a mirror. Duality in its inversion and reflection. A concept not grasped by most Christians. Are not Christ and Satan brothers? Loved the poem a fave The symbols of the delta or triangle and upside down and crossed through delta as well. The pyramid in form and the all seeing eye.

A bit of a twist with the writing for the eyes! Well-written, your poem, \"Baphomet Rising,\" explores themes of duality, identity, and societal hypocrisy through the lens of Baphomet, a symbol often associated with occultism and the balance between opposites (good and evil, male and female, human and beast). The poet, embodying Baphomet, confronts humanity\'s flaws, self-deception, and moral failures, suggesting that these issues are inherent within each individual. The poet aims to provoke thought and self-reflection in readers, challenging them to confront their own beliefs and actions in relation to societal problems. The invocation of Baphomet serves to disrupt traditional understandings of divinity and morality, inviting a reevaluation of how these concepts are perceived in today\'s world.

This poem is a thunderous invocation and mirror that is no gentle verse but a liturgy of confrontation. It borrows the thespian cadence of ritual and unravels it into prophetic rebuke. It doesnโt ask for admiration but it demands reckoning. Its fury is sacred, and its language theatrical in the way prophetic texts often are. It reminds us that monsters are often made of truth weโve ignored, and that divinity rarely conforms to comfort.
