The Treason of Peace
Thomas W Case said:

A quiet fist raised against the storm, choosing courage over cruelty.
The poem walks the hard road of peace, where conviction matters more than anger.

The Treason of Peace

Loved the music of Joan Baez now a lost voice on the music scene but her influence can still be heard in other\'s songs. What ever happened to the peace movement of the sixties. Nicely written my friend and a fave

This poem set my mind to work Tristan. Even the most rooted tree extends branches and sends out further roots. We all meander even those most fixed. As for wild grapes making the most bitter wine may be true but some like me like it dry as long as it is not vinegar it is all the better.

Faith is a strong metophor and sometimes its all that\'s left in the end.
Strangely enough, we might go through life never thinking about it, till that time when rock bottom brings us to the realisation we need help.

sorenbarrett said:

Faith is not religious but at the bottom of all we know for in the beginning we must trust. Trust that the floor will hold us, that there is air to breath and that the sun will shine again. Trust built on experience but trust none the less for we do not understand the mechanisms beneath it. A lovely write my friend and a fave

Friendship said:

I wish what you wrote was true for me to believe in, cause right now I have no faith. I think God forgot me! Nicely written. Your poem revolves around the concept of faith as a guiding force in life, particularly in times of uncertainty and conflict. You suggest that while knowledge, certainty, and confidence may falter, faith remains a steadfast companion, enabling individuals to navigate difficult circumstances. You also seem to explore the contrasts between faith and elements like knowledge, certainty, and comfort, emphasizing the strength that faith provides when other forms of assurance fail.

The days when you could smoke and be sophisticated.
Sadly this pleasure comes with a health warning now.
Cigars, cigarettes, all taxed to the hilt.
Can\'t even get high now, what happened out there.

The action, the reaction, a flash and moment in time expanded. Well written my friend what is obvious is not always so and with that the high could be just high living or spending. I have smoked a seventy five dollar cigar before and the aroma leaves one high.

I like your play on words and imagery very clever and brings a peaceful picture of simple relaxation and happiness. I\'m not a smoker though, I feel this could be a very nice Cuban. ๐ŸŒน

I\'m allergic to crowds, no matter what their purpose. But differentiate that from a well organised collective.

Keep it flowing, Tristan.

Friendship said:

Well written, my friend. Your poem revolves around the concept of sacrifice and the darker aspects of human nature, particularly how society often demands brutal solutions to its problems. The imagery you painted of flaying serves as a metaphor for the pain and suffering inflicted upon individuals to satisfy the collective desires of a community. You highlight the conflict between individual suffering and societal expectations.

Hang them all i say, hang them high, especially in they\'re Politicians.
Did television make the flayers redundant, I wonder.
Our sacrificial lamb, Starmer is gone this Monday, to be replaced by the next sacrificial lamb.

The sacrifical lamb, the scape goat, the whipping boy taking the blame from the masses and the noble. Today it seems this painful metaphor is enacted on the masses themselves in taxes, burdensome laws, eminent domain and a prejudiced judicial system. It also applies on an individual level where a pecking order places one person to blame for another individual or the group. Well written my friend and a fave
