It comes for everyone big or small, young or old, rich or poor it is the great equalizer and in my mind the justice of the universe that treats everyone equally. The use of the word (I am) is in my mind a reference to what the Bible calls God\'s name. It is powerful and seems meant to shake the reader to the core. As for me I look at it as an old friend that I have seen the face of many times in the past, sometimes as a visitor come to call on friends and family and at others an me but decided to leave early with a promise to return latter. Loved the poem

I remember reading the fourth chapter of Jonathan Livingston Seagull where the author tells us what\'s coming, wrapped in the cloak of \"safety.\"
I\'m not good at reading longer pieces, but this one pulled me along nicely!

Hmm. Aka \"safe\" discussed herein at length, who doesn\'t take chances? At least the section of society from which I come forbade such experiments, until I dasn\'t come any closer than my profession forces me to do. Guess I prefers to take my chances with a ton of bacon and beef. What is far more fascinating to yours truly is the sheer coincidental timing of THIS pretty number and my own life, eerily. I never once considered while on the clock late Thursday that I\'d be reading such a gorgeous tribute in a matter of hours. La dee. Superbly rendered with such charming effects the reader, unconsciously drawn in, takes a ride on the wilder side, dumped, head spinning, safely [hahaha] sans any clinging, damning odors, the imagery excellent and poignancy haunting with an unidentified note. Thank you for sharing.

This one started from zero and continued to pick up speed as it plummeted off a cliff where the road was insanity and the fall was enlightenment. Yes this world\'s decisions based on statistics. What is safe the FDA decides based on how many out of a thousand die, Government decides war based on the chances of winning, business puts money down on the chances of profit and the gambler plays against the house that is guaranteed to win on percentages. Life is a zero sum game no one gets out alive and so why not enjoy the ride. Loved the format as well as it carries the reader along and the shuffled word explode from line to line made me think of cards being shuffled very creative. A fave

Dang! Take me by the hand and lead me through the famed labyrinth trolled by the Minotaur, endeavouring to persuade me that....I shan\'t die, after all?! You\'ve successfully lead my poor mind through so many gyrations it\'s spinning like it would topple off and roll away. No wonder philosophers go wonky. [Albeit I still mourn Phaedrus and deplore what they did when they caught him, as delineated in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.] Fascinating and rendered to effect with such interesting facets as it trickles down the page, loaded with excellent imagery, what a haunting poignancy this pretty number owns! Thank you for sharing.

This poem opens doors to the mind. So many that believe in ultimate truth, reality, right and wrong and here is introduced the idea that there is not but that all change and all can never be fully known. A integration of all points of view are more viable. Eastern medicine integrated with western medicine science with religion with psychology and philosophy. In this process maybe we will loose a little of our arrogance and recover a little humility that will allow us to see further. A fave

I got a feeling of being dragged in front of the mirror and a voice telling me to open my eyes and to open my mind. The treatment of death is masterful. In my humble opinion it is one of the finest pieces - accessible yet deep as an ocean

What a wonderful write, the enemy within, how we nurture hate ourselves and feed it untill then it takes us over and imprisons us, that we cannot think anything different, loved the read

Wow! a wonderful poem that lays it out. It makes the case for how we create our own enemies and how hate eats us from the inside out. That even death can be a welcome friend. Deeper than the story and words is the message. The key is given as to how to live life free. So nicely organized and worded it is profound in its wisdom. A fave for the message given

Spot on. Methinks you\'ve in a trice proved why carnivals and clowns exist, fun houses and all of such ilk. Frightening reality, isn\'t it. Gorgeously rendered with nigh exquisite imagery and a ghastly poignancy haunting long after.
