Comments received on poems by Tristan Robert Lange
Puritanical
arqios said:
This poem shreds polite moralising. It reveals how self-righteous views mask injustice. It sets “perfume botanical” against “iron, judge-rusted manacle.” The tight rhyme shows dogma’s grip on us. It asks who suffers in the name of virtue. “Puritanical” means being overly strict about what’s right. It’s seeing life through a pious lens. It ignores the pain of the poor.

The Death of a Woman\'s Heart

This poem has my heart. It\'s hauntingly beautiful and captures the pain of heartbreak with such raw emotion. The imagery is vivid and evocative, drawing the reader into the darkness. The demon as a symbol for past trauma is especially powerful. It feels almost universal, like it could resonate with anyone who\'s experienced heartbreak. Well done dearest Tittu 🌹 A fave for sure ❤️

Empathy comes via my experience of reggae - the first time I could move at all.
Great stuff Tristan.

Wild Child
Cheeky Missy said:
Methinks, oh thou self-proclaimed \"wild child,\" thou forgotest the closing quote marks. There\'s something so energizing about yielding to the passionate impulse of such influences, isn\'t there, though? And the copper merely was trying to do his duty in keeping the peace, no offense to you, he simply wasn\'t allowed to let it get out of hand. [I do love law enforcement. If only--] Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a lively poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Tristan this poem of revelry delights the heart. Dance often neglected in the arts is probably the oldest of the arts. It comes from the inner self raw and untamed a rhythm of millenia of drumbeats and moves the body and feet. It burns energy pent up and together with song takes one back to the beginning where thrashing arms and feet with raucous cries brough nurturance. What better way pain to stay A lovely poem of expression

This “wild child” crackles with unrestrained energy and defiant joy. From the charged opening in the concert hall to the final declaration of freedom, the poem rides a surge of ecstatic movement. It feels like a personal anthem that is unequivocal in its celebration of dance as liberation 🕊️🙏🏻

The Death of a Woman\'s Heart
Tony Grannell said:
Hello, Tristan,
The horrors of a woman possessed, all control in the hands of a demon, its, \'knife of a thousand burdens\' relentless as she bleeds out until the last beat of her heart. An extremely dark verse and yet midst all its horror, I actually enjoyed it, macabre as that may sound. Excellent, my friend.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

A great poem/song that calls out with each verse making its point. Music always adds to the lyrics a sense of emotion. Very nice Tristan

The Children of the Fall
arqios said:
A song that\'s a fierce, unflinching anthem of alienation. It plants the listener smack in the crossroads of judgment and desperation, then hammer home how faith can become both shield and sword. The repeated “children of the fall” hook grounds the song in shared identity; outcasts united by society’s glare. It also somehow brought me back to memories of the children of the corn, perhaps because of the title. Rousing read.

This is very dark and macabre, especially written at such a young age,my sense is this is a woman with a very troubled possibly abusive past, and the past is not going to let her go free and have a Life, a touch off if I can\'t have you nothing will, well thats my thought, very interesting, intriguing and scary write

Wow. I guess you\'ve been penning in this ghoulish vein far longer than I dreamed, the hellish invocations apropos for such, yet leaving me [haha, and a woman indeed at that], fainting on the threshold of yonder as it is so very dark, I may not proceed any further into its depths. Ghastly and macabre with excellent imagery and a terrifying poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Very true insight Tristan. I like the imagery of the written format that works like a visual exclamation of outrage at the statement. Very interesting indeed my friend. It makes me wonder so much about the writing process, the creative processs and how it’s so different for each individual. I love seeing visual diary format expressed in this manner. Elizabeth 🦋🙏🦋
