Oh that old time religion....... I really don\'t know what to pray.... no I mean say.... or maybe... I don\'t. The variation in social norms and religious observance across America will forever confuse me.
In the meantime, there\'s no denying the entertainment I got from this yarn in your trademark inimitable style, Tristan.

Welcome to reality. Some parts of the world aren\'t as \"liberal\" as the Chicago area is famed for being, and every man\'s style of worshipping his chosen deity isn\'t tolerated freely everywhere. This pretty number is very nearly a riot. Guess you weren\'t so much surprised as intent on ruffling feathers, were you?

I was not aware of Holy People\'s Town, and googling its history was quite informative. First of all I love the presentation of this poem, the tiny graphics with each stanza add a powerful subtleness to the whole situation. It possesses a peaceful easy flow, and calls out the foolishness of inflexibility. Beautifully done!!

A most interesting change with time. Culture changes and with it laws and expectations. The peace and joy I had as a child I have to leave society for today and live a solitary life to enjoy. Nicely done Tristan

This is hauntingly vivid!!!
The imagery and atmosphere are really immersive, and the twist at the end about it being a nightmare is chilling. Great job capturing the emotions and sensations! Well done dearest Tittu ❤️

But nobody heard the break on the edge of death. I like the poem, it\'s so interesting to see how you have changed over the years, though still remain your dark academic self!

That has brought me back to certain recurring dreams that I thought had been forgotten. Good to know we’re not alone; that the occurrence is something others have and get past as well. 🕊️🙏🏻

Wow, what an intense post today, my friend. I\'m completely captivated by it. I can relate to the feeling of dismay, a very sincere line from the bottom of my heart. It\'s always a blessing to stop by and read your post. Inspiring. Thanks for sharing. Best regards.

Okay Tristan I\'m going to give you my take although I am not at all sure what you had in mind. A window is what we use to see the world outside and this one dark and dull clouds the view of what can be seen. Sitting in the middle of nowhere gives me a feeling of being lost and not knowing where one is. A rock is something firm and hard what things are built on and I see knowledge as a rock breaking the window of ignorance and the shards of broken ignorance hurt. Being overwhelmed with blackness leaves feelings of being engulfed by nothingness and its darkness. This seems like a deep existential crisis and fear. Thats my first take

Friendship said:
Your poem revolves around the duality of the poet\'s role, portraying them as both an observer and a conduit of profound truths and experiences. The poem explores the burdens of artistic expression, the struggle between creativity and the weight of harsh realities, and the complexities of existence. the poet\'s connection to the world, the sensory experiences that influence their work, and the darker aspects of life that inform their art.

Raw it bleeds and the reader\'s hands are bloodied. An albatross a symbol of freedom and fair winds for sailing becomes an ill omen if killed it is a burden of guilt leading to misfortune. I have seen the albatross in life and metaphysically. This is a graphic and vivid poem speaking existentially and the reference to prophet seems tied to the spiritual portion and vision needed with one head of eyes that see what others don\'t, one with ears that hear the pain and bleeding of the world and the third that of experience having lived the bloodiness and carry it with him (ironically like the mariner that kills the albatross that must wear it around the neck as a reminder) Nicely done Tristan a fave

Acceptance of ones self is the strongest form of power one can have dear Tristan, despite it all, you came through. Kudos. Love yourself and remember that emotional attachment to anyone but your own soul can fail you. 🌹

one sided unrequited love - awareness and despair woven together so beautifully - well done, dear poet...you have captured the intensity of emotions in contrast with the cold shoulder given in a very descriptive way

Fascinating. Never dabbled meself in the vicinity of the deity invoked, or if I have then he was addressed by the name the Scriptures gave, I hope. Creepy and macabre with a frightening import. Excellently rendered with perfect imagery and a ghastly poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

\"Congruence is a congregational farce.\" not going to forget soon. What a poem. I always rebelled (quite foolishly if I may add) against having to conform. Somehow this poem is going to be an anthem for me. Do I need to spend even a single thought about pressing \"fave\"- you be the judge.
