Good write T. I know The Theatre of Popeye. Oh, what themes do they have? What sort of plays? people ask us. We can\'t answer that, except to say there is always the theme of spinach included! lol :)

Like acts in a play stages of mood also end and begin. A poem with many levels of metaphor. It is nicely broken into five acts and as a play speaks the the voice of one view, as a metaphor with another. Well done my friend

Death in the night and the legend is born.
If the natives have beliefs, you just know the perpetrator is going to exploit them.
Horses in the night always does it for me.

Beyond the particularities Tristan, the atmosphere of almost constant terror is clearly portrayed.
PS: No chance of you cheering up this side of Halloween........is there?

Well done, my friend,your poem explores the haunting legacy of colonial violence and the struggle for justice against oppressive forces. It reflects on the cyclical nature of violence and the impact of history on present-day communities, particularly through the lens of Indigenous experiences in the face of settler colonialism.

When mystery is caged in doctrine, faith hardens — a paradox turned formula becomes the arteriosclerosis of the spirit. Poor Nestorius, trapped in theological politics🙏🏻🕊️

Those indoctrinated are rigid and brittle taking offense at any perceived pressure are intolerant of differences in their belief. I see metaphors in this poem of Christian beliefs. Well written

The decision we\'ve all come across. Do we or do we not?
The time of year adds to the gloom, and nature takes its course.
I wonder as humans if we\'re becoming more insular.

Beautifully thought out write but sad, the harsh reality of death for all living creatures, I would of at least moved it, so it didn\'t get hit again. Another great write

Really appreciate the fusion of cold, death and apathy so well alluded to in your disciplined piece and the commentary following, Tristan. With all of you all the way.
On just a marginally more practical note: You are there - either save the bear or shoot it, because I can\'t stand the ongoing agony....

No, not a Popeye tale. I took a dead fox on a country lane to a pub once. Not sure why I did. Maybe I thought they could bury it. But they were aghast.

Well said. The poem explores themes of mortality, apathy, and the inevitability of death, juxtaposed with the beauty of the autumn season. It suggests that the indifference of people to suffering reflects a deeper existential truth about life and death.

Stark and cold as the season you blend and carry though each stanza with the image. The cold reality of death pulls at the heart. Nature\'s way for all to see with little that can be done but accept and prepare for the winter. Your imagery is splendid Tristan but it is the construction and blending that gets the fave on this poem and its message. Very nice

Paul Bell said:
Necromancy, I have to use that word somewhere.
It is coming to that time of the year when the undead make their presence felt, and the living wish they had buried them deeper.
Which all adds up to a gothic supper and bangs in the night.
I\'ll give the graveyard shortcut a miss tonight.

A great song there my friend and totally appropriate for the season. Dark but elevating. It could take off like the monster mash of years ago.

I really like how this poem captures the intensity of self‑reflection. It\'s mirrored phrasing makes the doubts feel like they’re echoing inside the speaker’s head. The mix of Elizabethan language with raw vulnerability gives it a timeless, almost Shakespearean ache. good going for a teen poet! 🕊️🙏

Definitely of a time in your life cycle, Tristan. I (almost) remember those questions myself, though it is doubtful I would have expressed them in such disciplined poetic form.
