This reminds me of the Ferris Bueller quote \"life moves pretty fast. You don\'t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.\" We can spend hours of our lives with existential dread, with questions that may never be answered, but in the end, what really matters is how well we spent the time we knew we did have. Thanks for sharing! โจ๐

Existentialism at its finest? What it oddly triggered in me was John Paul Jones message to General Washington: \"We have met the enemy and they are ours.\" But when I tried to begin that comment I couldn\'t see why or how on earth that made any sense with your latest, whence I deleted that comment. Just so you know. We seem indeed to have the moment wherein we stand, if that\'s what you\'re saying; and forsooth, let us live as we should...in the fear of the LORD, if only. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a none too subtly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

It would top off the picture well to have a scale on the desk! It only takes one sin to fall, to fail. But there is certainly a difference between acceptance and defiance.

\"Compassion has an expiration date.\" What a line! It\'s all too true...the people are willing to help...until they aren\'t.

\"...vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.\" (Ecc 1:2) And whom but the poets to echo that while man seems to chase his tail madly, deluded by dreams of grandeur which eventually leave him chagrined. Excellently rendered with haunting imagery and a damning poignancy.

The cycle of life seen through other glasses. Futility, why just keep carrying on? What is the meaning of life? Such an existential question. Here it is brought to the page in metaphor and with great textual design representing the bowing of the grass (wheat) and the fading into forgottenness. A lovely portrayal of the demise in form and thought. A fave

A Little Mad

My family think I\'m a tad eccentric but that\'s not the case - I could even be classed as slightly mad - but in truth I simply retain a streak of childish humour which keeps my brain working looking for the next humerous poem to post here on MPS.

Doggerel Dave said:
As per (most of) the conversation above, madness is a relative concept. And you have nailed it nicely Tristan.
However let\'s not forget the deeply psychotic for whom madness is a disabling curse. (Not you - otherwise you would be incapable of your lines here.)

Cheeky Missy said:
Not me. I\'m just a little crazy all the time, and that\'s just me, my personality. It is indeed a cruel world, and bullies will target you in lieu of their victims if you stand in their way, but, that\'s just the way it goes. Gorgeously rendered with exquisite imagery and a very haunting poignancy indeed! Thank you for sharing.
