Whoa, this was a challenge for me, my friend. The poem addresses issues such as the societal consequences of capitalism, the plight of immigrants, the hypocrisy of political systems, and the overwhelming sense of despair in contemporary life. It evokes a visceral reaction against the status quo, suggesting that while the world continues to function, it does so in a state of moral and ethical decline.

Chilling those ice cubes a world gotten out of control like a cancerous cell. Multiplying taking over destroying all around it until it kills itself. Malignant might be a good word. Well written my friend

Torquemada\'s Trepidation

\"And Jesus embodied the divine feminine.\" Jesus was definitely a feminist! The bible teaches us so many stories of women and Christ, anyone who tries to say otherwise about women is certainly wrong! Fantastic poem of course!

Your poem explores themes of gender, power dynamics, religious authority, and the resilience of truth and feminine wisdom. It references historical figures and events, such as Torquemada and the Inquisition, to emphasize the struggle against oppression and the enduring

Why are we always picking at scabs? A most interesting write Tristan where it begins as a nursery rhyme and ends a rather dark existential tale. Well done my friend

We are encased in a body which encapsulates us whether living or dead, holds all that we are, holds all that we\'ve dreamt, holds a past that is best left in check. Can anyone ever, truly see us? You ask a very profound question in exquisite verse, this goes deep into the soul. Remarkable!

This poem really had me thinking very hard. It\'s very, very dark! This poem revolves around the themes of confinement, emotional struggle, and the tension between reality and self-delusion. The Poet metaphorically describes their situation as being in a \"casket, \"It\'s suggesting feelings of entrapment and despair. Despite this, there is a conflict between the desire to express sorrow and the impulse to mask pain with denial (\"I was born with wings—can fly—\"). It seems to me that the matter touches on coping mechanisms in the face of trauma, the complications of past scars, and the challenges of confronting one’s emotional state.

Well written, true, and honest . The poem explores the pervasive and cyclical nature of depression, illustrating its impact on the poet\'s life. It depicts how depression can fluctuate in intensity and form, yet remains a constant presence that is difficult to escape. And yet you are painting and seeking to articulate the often unspoken reality of depression, raising awareness of its impact and providing a voice to those who may feel isolated in their experiences. It serves as both a personal reflection and a collective acknowledgment of mental health challenges. You\'re not alone; we all go through this in our lives.

Love the format.
There\'s an end, and an absolute end, where even the ghosts can\'t wait to get the hell out.
This is a state you never want to find yourself in, the road to recovery is a tough one.
