Hmm. Charming quatrains with an interesting rhyme scheme, rendering a classic format and theme to effect so beautifully, it seems familiar somehow. Fascinating and thought-provoking with great imagery and a fitly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing. I like it.

I have to say this poem is well said and points to many inconsistencies in belief. I love how it is formed in a similarity of religious chants. A sarcastic presentation of what many believe but as a call to carefully think about what one says they believe. A fave

This write is justified, religion is more guilty than the layman of misinterpretation of the holy books , as it is these houses of faith that the layman is told what to think, do and believe, and each and everyone is there serve there own purpose and individual agenda. Enjoyed the read

I once read of a warrior from old Japan who was tortured, and didn\'t even blink an eye. I have no way (that I know of/am capable of presently) to verify if that is a true story. Let\'s imagine it is. Then, how on earth did he do that? The only answer I can come up with is that there was no one there to feel the pain.

The funny thing is the opioid doesn\'t solve the problem...it just puts it off until more drugs are needed..

So much pain and some of it so random, the intentional ones have very interesting barbs… I remember quite clearly how avoidance was a must; much like countermeasure flares in fighter jets. 🙏🏻🕊

This speaks so much truth. The format I took at first as a tornado then a mushroom and finally it seemed smoke from an opium den. The message gets a here here from me as I watch so many settle into comfort and ignore what is important. A most poignant write Tristan

Someone once said to me pain reminds you, you are still alive and keeps you on your toes, comfort is a blanket that suffocates your defences and allows you to just exist not live, probably nothing to do with the write but that is what came to mind, enjoyed the read

I knew it was Death from the beginning, but what beautiful description. If there was a way to double favorite...I think this is one of my favorite poems I\'ve ever read.

The rhyme makes my soul happy...a stark contrast to the voice my head read this poem in. Mysterious and aloof, a definite favorite.

Nary author\'s note to enlighten further, your favorite angle flourishes again with eerie implications. Beautifully rendered with a lovely bit of rhyming, gorgeous imagery, and a disturbing poignancy haunting. Thank you for sharing.

It has been a long time since I have tried to write a poem where all the last words of each line rhymed. You have done well in this venture my friend. Nicely done.

That really shook me… first being flustered then lost then realising, so much like cancer but no so much more… and just as the word formed, like the Prestige, the reveal slams head on and on time! Death. 🕊🙏🏻

I thought it was a quiz-poem - \'Who am I?\' type of thing, and we have to guess. Doh!

It comes for everyone big or small, young or old, rich or poor it is the great equalizer and in my mind the justice of the universe that treats everyone equally. The use of the word (I am) is in my mind a reference to what the Bible calls God\'s name. It is powerful and seems meant to shake the reader to the core. As for me I look at it as an old friend that I have seen the face of many times in the past, sometimes as a visitor come to call on friends and family and at others an me but decided to leave early with a promise to return latter. Loved the poem

I remember reading the fourth chapter of Jonathan Livingston Seagull where the author tells us what\'s coming, wrapped in the cloak of \"safety.\"
I\'m not good at reading longer pieces, but this one pulled me along nicely!
