None of us asked to be here we were drafted. We can all quite our resignation papers made of lead or a hemp rope but there is no pension for those that quit and taxation falls on those that stay. A great write Tristan poignant and dark. Well done my friend

Sharp, unflinching, and alive—your words punch, sting, and hold me close all at once. A fierce, vivid ride through truth, humor, and fire.

A very serious and sensible piece of write where socio-political overtones are blended with deep meaning and rather a poetic type of the way it is all composed. My fave

My left arm pulls them in. My right arm pushes them out. Works like a treat, otherwise I wouldn`t waste my time doing it.

Snow days can really be tough. Some days have lots of bright sun in them and it’s when there’s less dragging darkness. 🕊️🙏🏻

Tristan, now you come to mention it, I read that a Federal judge has placed a restrictions on ICE activities in Minneapolis. But what does that mean in an America being driven by your ‘Mango Menace’?
Your message is plain and clear to see, without ambiguity, no flannel involved, the anger palpable.
Having reinforced the absolute need for integrity and truth, Your statement that ‘the darkest days are yet to come’ is, at this point, an almost absolute certainty. Can there be the other side to come out to?

The darkest days are definitely yet to come, soon they\'ll be sending you ingredients to make your own meat.
Beats me why we go to war when the food and drink industry is doing a better job in wasting us.

A poem wide open to interpretation I will take off on a wild ride. Technological sugar in exotic flavors to entice the unknowing and ignorant of such real flavors that the artificial is poison with the taste of candy while the real is unavailable in your area. ICE does entice the hot child with appetite untamed but will shock their system in the heat. It is a slimy green in those pools, one that I would never swim in no matter how hot the weather. Give me clean water I say not bottled either and with no additives of fluoride or even chlorine. Tis dark days indeed when one has no right to choose or even complain about the situation and one pays to be beaten, abused and executed then told that it is all for your own good. Not even Hitler was that smooth of a flavor.

well said, your poem revolves around the rejection of superficiality and deceit, advocating for integrity and truth in the face of evil. The poet intertwines themes of resistance against corruption and the necessity of confronting uncomfortable truths, suggesting that while darkness may lie ahead, it is essential to maintain honesty and moral clarity.

Your poem explores the relationship between divinity, intelligence, and the quest for truth. It asserts that God, as the creator of everything—including human intelligence—has endowed humanity with the capacity to think critically and discern truth from falsehood. The poet critiques those in power who resist new truths, suggesting that ignorance is not a viable defense when confronted with knowledge. Well written, my friend, I came back on for a while, too cold to paint.

Love the acrostic Tristan is that double p in people a sign? The creator seems a human need for us there must be a beginning and end for us there must be a creator and if so who created the creator? Mysteries they say but if we are to remain in ignorance then where is the intelligence? A lovely poem Tristan that pricks the mind and Galileo would be proud. A fave

The mortgage, the 2.2 children, suburbia, the picket fence, who wouldn\'t want that.
Got a feeling half the world doesn\'t want it, the wife divorcing the husband, the kids divorcing the parents.
You can see why people disappear now.

Often wondered if it would be better if we were all rooted. We would have our place know our neighbors and family. Not have to worry so much about change but then we would not be able to travel see new things and heaven forbid that there be a fire or flood unable to save ourselves or help others. A most interesting piece my friend. Nicely done

Quite the song this poetic write it speaks of welcoming the fire and enduring the refining. Each rock easier to remain what it is yet so much more valuable when refined. This poem pounds with each utterance of the word crucible like a blacksmiths hammer on the anvil shaping weapons for the war against life. Embrace the fire the flame the crucible, the process makes one stronger and more valuable

I don\'t even think people realise they\'re abusing you now, it\'s ingrained.
Escalators are a prime example, the amount of people who crack up when you\'re not running down them is amazing. My usual retort is. It\'s a machine that takes you up and down, moron. Abuse back and forth, it\'s like a starter for ten
