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

Avoiding the brain\'s traps in its enormous labyrinth. \"Falling through a skimpy sieve\" is exquisite. I really liked that image. Speechless. Cheers.

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.

So clear a metaphor this of how society treats us. Told where to go and what to do and if that is not enough told that we like it. Striped and stitched we proceed through life a commodity that when used up is discarded. A too true write that sends shivers down the spine in a macabre carnival of society\'s definition of happiness and delight. A splendid illusion.

A wonderful write of stuffing are emotions and feelings away in a memory cupboard, thou out of sight never out of mind as occasionally we dare to revisit them and give them an airing, great write and read

Teddy for me is a metaphor of my childhood that is put away and given away but never really lost. Every once in a while I\'ll visit it again. A most lovely write that brings such good feelings it has to be a fave

And my close friend, liking to sound enlightened, ever and anon inserting \"dopamine\" in our conversations, forgive me, but your finale seemed to swear it said that instead, or? There is a time for silence, while apathy was born of oppression, was it not? Charmingly rendered in feigned lightness belying the more weighty reality expressed, with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy, thank you for sharing.
