I must continue to honour your creativity and talent, Tristan - as here. But it don\'t half leave me feeling a wee bit poorly at times...

Feast Your Eyes
Friendship said:
Your song \"Feast Your Eyes\" revolves around themes of loneliness, existential dread, and the interplay between life and death. The imagery of ghosts, tombs, and decay reflects a sense of confinement within one\'s own mind, emphasizing the burdens of personal struggles and emotional weight. The repeated invitation to \"feast your eyes\" suggests a juxtaposition between the grotesque realities of existence and an acceptance or acknowledgment of these darker aspects.

I am scratching my head whether to laugh or run. The combo of Ready. Aim. Misfire- why did it sound so very me?? 😁😄😁😜😇
Run, I would. But only after FAVE.

First of all- fabulous!
The intensity reminded of D. H. Lawrence. The themes are different but the kind of intensity to have something, yet, can\'t grasp.

A most interesting quality where magic by association is assumed in that blood of youth will restore youth in the bather. Dracula like in a sense where blood of the victim maintains life in the undead. Sex associated with life also becomes a fixation. A dark piece of history and myth rolled into one. A write that fits the month that we are in with Halloween coming around the corner. Most graphic in its imagery it hangs heavy on the reader\'s mind.

Up top there the term \'tone\' is examined, and for me that very much sums it up. Somehow a flash of something like synesthesia occurred and I felt it as a piece of carefully composed music.....

Hmm. You\'ve got me. I remain in a mental fog, unable to extricate myself from the romantic ambiance cozening me with piquant scents to steal me off in ecstasy, despite your warning of some eerie alterations. Terrible, I realize. Excellently rendered with gorgeous imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Your poem really captures that eerie shift from the comfort of autumn rituals into something cosmic and unsettling. I love how the bonfires and harvest moon lull us into nostalgia, only for the “reversal” to twist the night into something apocalyptic. It feels like a meditation on how quickly the familiar can turn strange, and how fragile our sense of order really is. 🕊️🙏🏻

Well written, your poem explores the transition between life and death, as well as the cyclical nature of seasons, particularly autumn. It juxtaposes the warmth of autumn festivities with the chilling onset of winter, symbolizing change and the inevitable passage of time. The imagery of light and darkness reflects an internal struggle between nostalgia for what was and the acceptance of change, suggesting a complex relationship with mortality.

This seems appropriate for the season and sets the tone with darkness. A wonderful set of images unfolds the drama and the metaphor of death and darkness that is not a fear but a change and one that is strange. Nicely done

Almost got the acrostic and then my eyes went squiffy just before the end. No such trouble with my spirituality - which doesn\'t really exist in any way capable of being expressed in words.😊
👍Great read though, Tristan.

Faith probably started out with good intentions, but along the way it got hijacked.
I don\'t doubt there is a lot of great religious people out there, but they always seem to be overshadowed by the fire raisers.

The poem explores the tension between rigid religious beliefs and the necessity for empathy and inclusivity. It critiques those who are inflexible in their faith, suggesting that such attitudes lead to hate and the erasure of individuality. Ultimately, it calls for a more open and loving approach to spirituality.

Friendship said:
Well written, the poem explores the anguish and torment of a being cursed with vampirism, highlighting the internal struggle between the desire for life and the compulsion to inflict death. The speaker grapples with their monstrous nature and the guilt associated with the lives they take, ultimately seeking redemption or release from their cursed existence.❤️👍

The myth of the vampire a desire for immortality the desire for sexuality a form of incubus coming from a dreamland preying on young and vulnerable women. A fun read Tristan

Pleased to know I am relieved of the responsibility to know everything, Tristan. Indeed even in my current state of awareness, there is much I would wish to avoid.
Your extremely small sketch of an ever expanded multiverse is, I feel right all the way.
How you fuse these ideas in graphic form on the page gets my unreserved salutation.

The truth can be too hard to hear and know, at such times it is better unknown. When I learned music I was told that everything was timing and so it is with life as well. Most of us are not prepared for the truth (what ever it is). That is the reason that we learn little by little as we become prepared. Well written Tristan.
