It is often hard to tell the difference between charity and self preservation, between truth and lies, those that intend us harm and those that need our help. My wife said she is not taking that chance, she gives rides to anyone on the highway day or night.

Ahh, keeping the wolf from the door? Would wolves eat pigs, if they had let the wolf in?!

A deep issue with thoughts to mull over. My favorite lines were
To cease to be is the culmination of life.
It\'s the cessation of the curse that
Incubates in the womb and is born
Into a world that feeds on failure.
Thought provoking and challenging

Lies
Caring dove said:
Yeah , some people lie then lie again and again .. and at some point they need to tell the truth . It doesn’t help the person who is lying or the person being lied to

\'And here we are
In a parking lot of past regret—broken dreams—
Stuck between then and everything after.\' - really very impressively and poetically narrated story... best wishes,

Such a well described and heartfelt lament. And you are so right about mental health, having struggled to find my way in it for too many years now. Very nice work here.

How easy is it, to ignore one\'s screams, when chasing our own dreams? How tragic is it, that one must die, for us to realize what was a cry? Failing to understand their pain is a burden we carry, aren\'t you glad we didn\'t give anyone a burden for us?

Like the echoes of a bell just rung or the after image of a candle’s flickering flame, so does this poem and its last stanza remain imprinting indelibly at the core: “ And,
Tragically,
She cannot hear
A ghost who’s never
Really
Been there.”
It has completely undone me.

As human beings, we all share, and experiences, though they have their many differences. This poem pulls from my past many threads that weave a worn fabric. It evoked many emotions which is the sign of true art. It is highly emotional and dark as well. Very nicely written Tristan. It shows an artists care.

Wonderful that you were inspired by two different songs to create this master piece. The subject matter touches so many families. Thank you for raising awareness to mental health problems. Loved the alliteration in the first stanza. That set up the whole piece and it was a delight to read Tristan. Have a good Saturday.

Killer technicalities there, Tristan, (way back I did a very creditable villanelle, but after that the exhaustion has kept me away from really complex forms) however reading forward I really got into your parable of loneliness and isolation. Backwards? Sadly.....

We like wolves are social animals and look for acceptance. A poing well taken and expressed. Deviation from social norms leads to rejection and isolation. A great metaphor. Nicely done Tristan
