Cats on a Pillar
sorenbarrett said:
Now Tristan you got me on this one. I thought I knew the majority of words but siprit caught me off guard. As for cats on a pillar, cats may look imprisoned on a tall pillar but they descend easily and raise easily. Like clouds they sit untouched there. Clouds constantly change in their metamorphosis to rain drops that then again evaporate to new clouds. Butter and flies not butterflies that do metamorphosize . clever play on words there. Yes cats on a pillar another clever word play becoming that caterpillar. Yes death is the truth for all and yet in this metamorphosis springs new life like a phoenix in different form not a caterpillar but butterfly not a person but a worm. We all feed off of each other and so become immortal in another form.

Touching and with every word my support to him a friend. In these words I read below the surface to critics that dissect poems that like living things are not the same when taken apart there is something intangible lost. It is so nicely personalized in his style of wizards, elves and the world of fairies. May our sensitivity as poets extend to those around us. A lovely write and a fave

\"You came to devour,
You came to consume,
But you didn’t know
This orgy has you on the menu!\"
I\'m pretty sure there is more to this piece than meets my eye, but these four lines are a standout for me and I bloody wish I\'d written them when I was banging on about consumerism, the climate crisis and so on.
Thanks, Tristan. 👍👍

The grief can be equal to the loss of a close human friend.

Is this a picture of your own dogs? I can\'t even watch \'Lassie\' without getting upset! This is too sad. 😢 I never watch the film of Marley and Me, as I\'ve read the book, and know how it ends.

There\'s nothing quite like that analogy, especially after watching Marley and Me. Coincidence is an eerie thing when I am stuck with your latest posts. Torn between wanting to weep and confusion, thank you for sharing. Beautifully rendered with a striking simplicity whose eloquence is irresistible. Thank you again for sharing.

Who says that dogs do not feel loss or pain that they do not mourn, they more than us. A sad write.

Forgive me if this comment appears nieve, I\'m new to the social poetry scene. I appreciate works that are creative and cleverly written but even more so when that work offers an artistic appeal as well. This was my first impression upon read your work, masterfully penned.

Alas, having more or less damned dearest Chloe with an exposé of her previous exploits, who could have dreamed she\'d join her victims?! I\'m so very sorry you\'ve lost her. This gorgeous first piece in a series of three so very dark in its implications, I never thought--. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a painfully haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

You\'re a riot. If only...Frank Peretti, that\'s who you remind me of, yes. La dee, a verbal tour de force of the darker side of protestantism and who will enter may hug their coats to themselves. Gorgeously rendered with superb imagery and a damning poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
