This has several aspects to it wordplay and tension that comes in a countdown. I hope this was not a fuse Tristan. Well written my friend.

A powerful statement. Your poem revolves around the themes of anxiety, existential dread, and the confrontation with mortality. The countdown format suggests a sense of urgency and impending doom, while the expressions of breathlessness and the quest for life emphasize a struggle against despair. Yet your poem captures the tension between life and death, ultimately conveying feelings of isolation and the inevitability of fate. So strong in feelings

What would we change in our past, probably everything.
If we could, we\'d tweak here, tweak there, tweak everywhere.
Always think, as long as you only murder yourself in your youth, the courts can\'t jail you.

Reminiscent hindsight. Excellent hairstyles as well. 🙏🏻🕊️
P.S. was there a background sound effect of a colour slide carousel? (it\'s meant to be the SNAPSHOT in the transcript, correct?)

A nostalgic look back to days of schools graduation and dying youth. Memories frozen in snapshots. A time of drugs and yet the year of graduation is not the end. It has a feeling of young life now gone but yet not. Well written my friend

The day you first heard of a Mr P. Solus and his team, and their antics?
Knitting, sabres, spinach, etc. What ARE we talking about? Ask WCAT which won\'t tell us anything! lol.

Concerts are fun in and of themselves what took me in this write was the amusement park link. I remember well the times my family went to the amusement park (the best my working dad could afford). It was a minor Disney world that we as young kids could not tell the difference of. It brought back old memories and stoked the emotions as all good poems should. Well done my friend I particularly liked the rhyming short run:
\"jumbo the gumbo,
teletron telethon
through a carne’s
megatron.\"
A fave out of yesterday

Well written . Your poem reflects the contrast between the desire for joy and financial constraints. It speaks to the universal experience of children longing for experiences that bring them happiness, often complicated by their parents’ economic realities. The act of asking \"Can we, dad, can we?\" encapsulates the innocence of childhood hope in the face of adult responsibilities.

A clever political strike not sure if it was a jab or a hook maybe an uppercut. Regardless cage fighting on the white house lawn is something only Andrew Jackson could have thought of. Why not change the name of the country to Trumpland. When a man\'s head grows too big for his body Macrocephaly and hydrocephalus for a man with water on the brain. Well written Tristan

That was a joke last night. Well said, my friend. Your poem revolves around themes of privilege, societal struggle, and the absurdity of leadership that is out of touch with reality.

This is delightfully unhinged in the best way—like a sugar rush dream that keeps slipping its own logic.
Beneath the whimsy, there’s that quiet tug of wanting to stay lost in it, because waking up means facing whatever’s waiting outside the fog.
