Everyone has their god, but not everyone\'s god is as good as my god.
I always wondered what Jesus would think of the religious opulence living off his name.
The Mother Teresa\'s of this world is how I see religion in action and should be applauded.
The ones that chap your door and spout their verses. They get the imaginary machine gun or the old-fashioned boot up the ass.

He was a great entertainer he was wild and with no filters, but he loved so hard until his dieing day, he loved everyone who dared to love him. He certainly went out in grand poetic style. 🌹

Religion preaches conformity and relies on it. There are those that copy nonconformity just to be in the in crowd and they are worse feigning nonconformity and proclaiming rebellion only to hypocritically be one and the same. A most thought provoking write Tristan

That Batman biscuit image is brilliant, Orchi…exactly the kind of sideways humor that sneaks truth in under the radar. And “he sneaks in, in a thousand ways” might be one of the most accurate lines written today, poem or comment. In fact, we both know it is glugging true! Every. Single. Time. LOL! 🦇🔥✍️🙏

Sunday is not scorched here at the moment, weather-wise! Wassat pic? Someone taken a bite out of a Batman-shaped biscuit? Good thing it wasn\'t a Popeye-shaped biscuit. Doh! He sneaks in, in a thousand ways! heehee.
It\'s the Roman Catholics I can\'t get on with, and their \'antics\' at the Vatican for one thing.

The statement is articulate and accurately represents the reality of HSP. Experiencing it personally allows one to grasp its truth and concur completely. I personally call it ignorance and jealous Well written, Tristan, your poem revolves around the tension between individuality and societal judgment. It critiques the judgmental nature of society, particularly how those who are sensitive and artistic are often misunderstood and labeled as \"evil.\" The subject matter explores themes of conformity, personal authenticity, and the value of embracing one’s unique qualities in a world that often favors uniformity.

Well written, your poem revolves around the themes of isolation, suffering, and societal indifference. You highlight the experience of individuals who are marginalized and rendered invisible by society. Yet the poet delves into the emotional agony of rejection, stigma, and the dehumanizing effects of anonymity and erasure. The poem paints a vivid picture of how society views suffering as a form of entertainment, while simultaneously inflicting pain and neglect upon those who are already suffering.

Overlooked, banished, forgotten, erased. Damnatio memoriae the roman punishment of erasing a person\'s name from history. The worst punishment far worse than a death sentence it is the ultimate death sentence of obliterating one\'s existence. A dark and sad poem my friend.

Well written, my friend, your poem expresses a strong sense of defiance and resilience against oppression or control. It emphasizes the idea of individuality and freedom, suggesting that external forces cannot dictate one\'s identity or worth. Very strong words on ones identity👍❤️

Well-written, your poem personifies winter as a \"cold spirit\" that brings about a sense of inevitability and hopelessness. It suggests a world devoid of warmth, color, and hope, with an overarching feeling that existence is marked by a perpetual state of darkness. The poet delves into the emotional and philosophical reflections on life, reality, and the acceptance of a harsh truth that life is mostly devoid of light and joy. Happy New Year, Tristan.😊❤️

Tristan, I must say, you truly outdid yourself in this piece; your reading brought it to life in a breathtaking manner, infused with considerable emotion. Tell me, are you also the illustrator behind the drawings?
Your poem “A Devilishly Dreadful Watch Night Special” delves into themes of love, loss, and the consequences of one’s actions. The poet expresses a deep yearning for a lost love while grappling with the guilt of betrayal and the horror of their current state, which is characterized by undead existence and violence. In which it seems to revolve around a romantic relationship that has transformed into something dark and tragic, involving themes of desire, regret, and the macabre.

It has always been so interesting to me how various emotions and traits can be reconciled in myth, monsters and the fantastic. Here the allegory comes through and issue of fidelity and infidelity seem paired with lover and monster and undead. Well done Tristan Happy New Year to you

Well written. I relate to this. Your poem explores the paradox of isolation and the emotional turmoil it causes. The imagery of snowflakes and a \"sea of glitter white\" suggests beauty but contrasts with feelings of emptiness and the presence of \"guarded ghosts\" and \"defiant demons.\" The poet reflects a struggle with loneliness, the invisible barriers that block connection, and questions why such isolation exists. You speak from the heart.
